Well he is basically ousted at Ajax and never held a regular place. So have to warn anyone thinking he'll come straight in the team and shine in central defense (can also play on the left and occasionally has played as a holding midfielder).

Dutch paper De Telegraaf has this pretty much done and dusted, reunion with FdB as a factor I read on Squawka that he fell out with Ajax as they changed his shirt number

He is really. Supposed to be a real talent but never really made it at Ajax. He scored a brace when making his debut to convert a 1-0 down to a 2-1 win, may have done himself no favors in doing so as expectancy levels hit through the roof as so often happens with young talents. Hard shown nothing at all imo to prove he is PL level. Originally posted by Petereagle
Hang on a minute, dont we have 3 LBs already?! Maybe he's a left sided CB?

Cant really expect a 20 year old to walk into a premier league first XI, but FbD gave him his debut, and I'm sure knows what he can do. If it means Dann and Tomkins play better with good back up ready for the future, then thats a good deal. Same with Tete Edited by balfmalark (12 Jul 2017 9.57am)

Not the most reliable source you could find over here but nothing as random as the Tabloids. Their football staff is know for their big network and playing "political" games occasionally but not sure that would extent to giving agents a helping hand in creating rumors. As I genuinely believe this is the main cause for all the BS that gets poured over us on a daily base. And yes, quality back up is good and needed agreed. Our squad is thin. Fee is believed to be around 8m. Everton and Newcastle reportedly interested as well. Originally posted by balfmalark

Being linked with all and sundry and as of yet NO players having been brought in is becoming exceedingly tedious. Surely that's nothing new as every transfer window we are linked with dozens of players. This time they are all Dutch, last time it was those Sunderland players that Sam had been involved with and prior to that it was almost everyone at Newcastle and West Ham that Pardew had met

Already had started a thread on him last Thursday, which hasnt been as popular as this one. I think hes a good prospect but yeah element of risk. FDB will know these players well. Edited by Dinksers1982 (12 Jul 2017 10.55am)

Looks like this might actually be happening. Hope it gets done this week ahead of the boys flying out to HK. With Rufus they'll be seriously lowering the average age. Parrot

Sakho That's just defenders...add to that Keepers, Midfielders and strikers...and yet NONE have materialised.

Exactly the type of player we should be after and very well regarded. Huge potential to bolster our options in defence and someone who can play out from the back. Still would be surprised if we actually got him as he's been linked with big clubs over the years.

Frustrating as it is im sure fdb will bring in what we need. I have more fiath in him than any of our other recent previous managers to buy the right players. Ignoring the loan of sakho and the purchase of tompkins weve been pretty poor in the market.
