He must have one hell of an agent

Interesting.. you don't rate him at all?

Physically, he's a phenom. That's about it really.

The fact that an equally inexperienced right-back starts ahead of him on the left for the Moroccan team should tell you a lot about his quality. but truth be told, he did keep Salah in his pocket in the 2017 Afcon.

A lot of unproven young players are leaving the French league for unusually high fees. Just a couple of years ago a player like Dembele cost you 15 million. Maybe it's the world cup effect? I'm afraid a lot of clubs will get burnt with some of these hyped up youngsters.

How much did Schalke pay, do you know?

7 mils according to some reports.

given they've just gotten like 40m for Kehrer, who isn't that proven himself, I'd say it's not too much of a gamble

For no particular reason, I really like this move.

Have developed a soft spot for Zaza since he joined Valencia and largely out of sympathy for that laughably bad penalty miss he had a few years back.

Bizarre stuff by Bayer.
I like Henrichs a lot, and don't rate Bayern reject Mitchell Weiser anywhere near him, but Bayer have somehow decided to go for Weiser and sell Henrichs.
Fee ~20m €.
Think he will turn into a top full back and move to another, bigger club later on.

by Kick Wed Aug 29, 2018 12:28 am

Agree, Hans. Henrichs clearly has more potential, so selling him is foolish.

the hell? did that Ibiza club come across a rich owner or something?

Also I honestly didn't even know Spain had a fourth division. I thought it was La Liga > Liga 1/2/3 > Then the third division which is a a bunch of mini tables in which the division top teams go into additional playoffs to get promoted. I didnt know they could get relegated even further.
