The young lad from the city of Denderleuw. Best of luck in Jesus name.
Abi Leipzig dey craze niii? 1.5m for his one leg or what? Pricing a NT team player of Nigeria caliber @ 1.5m is an insult, brendford shd not listen to anything less than 10m for this boy.
Liepzig are not crazy, and the offer is not an insult. This is normal marketplace behaviour.
Liepzig are attempting to buy low, with a view to selling high in the future. That’s good business for the club. There is no moral obligation or room for sentiment. It’s business.
If they are willing to sell, Brentford will likely counter with a higher demand. Then both sides will come to the negotiating table.
Whatever club he ends up at, I hope it will be one that will give him the platform to develop his obvious potential.
I disagree with you, starting a bargain with a NT first 11 player, an international player from
Brendford, 20yo, tell me on what basis warrant that low offer? That’s very embarrassing and brendford shd automatically refuse it. We aren’t talking if a player from NNPL or other Africa countries here, at least they shd start from 5m.
Thumbs up Pompeii man. Your opinion is far better than other’s. Heaven bless you.
Brentford will not entertain this offer for a player that plays excellently across the back line.
No one goes to the market to make a purchase and starts at a high price.
The low price Leipzig offered is not a reflection of Frederick’s quality. It’s Leipzig doing what businesses do. Looking for profit.
Frederick is a tremendous talent. However. It takes a while for market value to match talent. Clubs have exploited this fact to their advantage, and this practice will continue in the foreseeable future.
