L'Equipe: Modibo Maiga fails medical; transfer 'abandoned'


Optimistic Nut

Isn't Cisse rated at £9million? I reckon if we're in for him, we may just haggle them down to £7/8 million (very wishful thinking maybe).

 

:thup:

Honestly man, not this shit again.  Had sort of forgot how eagerly we appeared to be bickering over a few quid last summer and how fucking tedious it was.

 

Ah, well, think Cisse is probably a no goer then. There's no way we'll sign a player for £10 million + (not in January anyway).

 

:thdn:

 

If we've pulled out of the deal because of a genuine concern about his fitness then it's fair enough, we've dodged a bullet.

 

If we've pulled out of the deal because it would mean Ashley actually parting with real cash then it's fucking absurd.

 

The fact Ashley has only ever actually 'paid' for 2 strikers since he took over has me a bit concerned. (Xisco and Best btw).  :jesuswept:

 

:mystery:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Conspiracy theory but wasn't there talk a few months ago that we might have switched targets from him? Part of me is thinking perhaps we'd made a gentlemanly agreement to sign him next month with the agent in August, we've went through the motions, and found something to get out of it. Hardly as if we've not signed players with question marks over their fitness in the recent past.

Worrying news for Modibo Maiga and Sochaux: it isn't an ankle injury wich prevented the Malian to play against IC at the ACN, but malaria.

Modibo Maiga (as teammate Abdou Traore of Mali) is a victim of malaria, or malaria if you prefer. Infectious disease transmitted by the bite of certain species of mosquitoes. It all started with feverish symptoms marked. And abnormal fatigue. The attacker had to pass additional tests and hospitalization. The diagnosis was quick. His "disappearance" when addressing the last four of the CAN 2012 therefore had nothing to do with his ankle. In these situations of crisis or loss, all tend to be classified'' secret-defense'' to erect a firewall media. Joined yesterday, Alexandre Lacombe admitted that he had information confirming malaria. "Fortunately we have some info! It's malaria, at least that's what we were told. He was discharged from the hospital, he goes even if this causes fatigue. The question will be whether the Malians will pass before entering the country. " No worries then, so far so ... wrong. On inquiry, Modi is due out today or tomorrow from the hospital. He sent a message announcing that he would fly Wednesday. Asked about the symptoms doc 'Philippe Pasquier summarizes: "Fever, sweats, fatigue and dehydration ...". Upon arrival, the player will follow a protocol and an appropriate treatment (had he followed in preventative before going to the CAN?). The question is on its actual condition. "Everything will depend on his reaction to the disease and the condition of his blood tests. Will start with a complete blood, "says Philippe Pasquier. And the risk of relapse and malaria is real. "The problem is that now he will be subjected to this malaria, with its crises."

 

Jurisprudence Bakaye Traore, ASNL player in the same case in late 2011, calls for great caution. His incapacity, estimated prior to ten days, was extended to two and a half months. Sochaux can not afford to play in March that awaits. It should already be mourned by Mali to Auxerre. But the note may be more salt in terms of absenteeism. Mecha Bazdarevic who had sounded the alarm about a possible injury to the CAN was not far off. More bad news, even if the president wants to relativize Sochaux. "The bad news is this imaginary offside which deprives us of a draw at Rennes. We do not need that. " No, not really. Sochaux are known as Maiga-dependent to get by. It is decidedly bad press fit ... It remains to know where all this will eventually take on FC Sochaux by the end of May ...
