5 mil for him??

let's wait till his contract runs out :g:

naah he will sign for Arsenal.Only Arsenal was allowed to have him on trail for a week and Wenger liked him and made a bid that was rejected. City and Spurs asked for trail after that and was denied. The boy wants to go to Arsenal and he's just a raw kid right now

Top talent !!


Wenger will make this guy very good, but if he comes allegri will sure be able to help him too.

Niang is French and Flampi and Bukake can help him settle in too.

how many strikers have 5 goals in a European top 5 league by the time they are 17?

we bought Pato for more than 20 mil at 17 with 6 goals (to be fair in a lot less games) but then again Ligue 1 is tougher than the Brazilian league

I know about this guy. Was playing at 16. Lots of clubs wanted the kid and its good to see we buy the best young talent these days and not nobodies out of the blue :D
He is one of the best we could get in his age-gap.
Expect to go on loan to Ligue 1 side, I bet. Its the best thing to do.
Id be shocked and happy if we do end up buying him.

Seems like he's more of a creator up front, so 5 goals isn't too shabby. It's like trying to compare Sheva's record to, say, Cassano's. Different type of forward.

That being said, I'm all for him coming here. :thumbsup:

Hes tall. Style like Adebayor I think. Good build.
Also to people saying this would be a random buy, can you please identify any 16-17 year olds that play in a top 5 league, as much as this guy. People could tell instantly Destro was going to be big when was 17, but he didnt net. Look at this guy, at least he has. This is def a good deal, I just dont see it happening.

This doesn't say much to me.
He can be just another premature too-big for his age player, one that peaked early. Age is overrated.

Still think 4M is expensive, specially if he can't contribute now and will be loaned out.

he's not that big (183-184cm) and he's been compared to henry-type by blanc and wenger.

obviously a long term buy. I like it if we invest in first team needs as well.

M'baye is in the same position Pato was when he was 17. Going by the logic of the last few posts, we shouldn't have gotten Pato, then, either.

IMO, we'll get a CB, whomever it is is still unknown, and we may pick up another midfielder. Other than that, I think we'll prolly spend a little into a younger player, as seen with us looking into this guy.

Of course this isn't surprising, as Berlu just got done saying he wants more emphasis on youth...

Im all for promising players coming here especially considering arsenal are interested. Hopefully he can be a good one for the future.

not really random if Arsenal, City, and other want him. He has been playing in Ligue 1 since he was 16, and 4 million for him would be less than 1/5 what we paid for Pato at the same age

He is young, French and black... Of course Wenger is interested on him. He must be tracking him since the day he was born.


Anyway I'm not against the deal. Just that this should be very low in the list of priorities. Pato was starting games 6 months after he arrived (and we could really pay his fee at the time).
We've many roles in the squad now to cover.

For ex. Milan gave up the 11-12M CB's to go for the 7-8M. Those 4M are that difference.


So did you watch the guy before? Or at least hared of him before today news?
