Guest MrSundlofer Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Newcastle chase 'new Drogba' Posted: 2011-05-25 12:33 Sierra Leone international Teteh Bangura, who is likely to line-up against Bafana in the last Africa Cup of Nations qualifier in October, is being chased by English Premier League club Newcastle United. The 21-year-old has been dubbed the ‘new Didier Drogba’ since joining AIK Stockholm earlier this year, where he has scored four goals in his first eight games this season. Bangura previously played in the Swedish second division and at FC Kallon in Freetown before that. AIK have already rejected other offers for Bangura. Sierra Leone’s top striker Mohamed Bangura also plays at the Swedish club but is out of form so far this season. Both players are expected to feature for Sierra Leone against Niger in Freetown next weekend in their next group match. Bafana Bafana play Egypt in Cairo in the other group match on the same weekend. He is absolutely not dubbed the new Didier Drogba Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 We have a good core of home style players already so nationalities dont matter for me. Dunno why this thing of only signing young players should be a thing. Often, defenders especially e.g that Hengbart chap below, have a few years on them and know the tricks of the trade. It shouldn't be about who is going to be worth the most in 3 years time it should be who is available at a good price and can come in and improve the team/squad, if they're value increases that is merely an added bonus and proof they've done their job well.

He is absolutely not dubbed the new Didier Drogba Also, Mohamed has not been out of form this season (even though he's not scored as much) and we have not declined offers for Teteh before, as we only signed him this season We rejected bids of around £3m for Mohamed this winter, in hopes that his value would increase even further after more time in the first division.

dcmk Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 No.. but when you see that he had a transfer for £80,000 3 years later, it suggests he wasn't up to much back then Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
