Scouts watching Stéphane Badji playing SK Brann's relegation play-off against Mjøndalen. His agent is Willie McKay.

I'll quote myself from last August:

 

Our purchasing policy consists of:

 

1. Buying theoretically promising players under the age of 21 for <2m with the hope they kick on and become assets down the line.

2. Buying quality, younger first team players around 25 or younger, but only in specific circumstances (last year of contract, dispute with current team, reduced price, clearance sale, etc)

3. In cases where 1 and 2 don't apply, loans are a useful way to avoid risk and transfer outlay while acquiring talent.

 

Ticks every box for number 2.

 

Good age - 24 - check, unfancied league/team - check, last year of contract - check, cozy agent relations - doesn't hurt

The 6ft 3in midfielder is attracting interest from clubs in England, Italy and Germany and the player's agent, Willie McKay, has revealed Badji has a release clause of £600,000 in his contract at Brann.

Is there a table of players by nationality that have played for us? We seem to have had a canny few Senegalese men

 

Transfermarkt normally does but I can't seem to get it to load. Their website has been shite since they updated it:

edit: this is the 3 NE clubs as of March this year using transfermarkt, it includes some reserve players who were only part of squads and never actually played though: http://uploaded.net/file/wa7ssfsx

 

Used it to make part of this infographic: http://uploaded.net/file/45h1ecib

Prime example of trying to fix what's not broken. New layout is less user-friendly, loads slower. Whoever is their new webpage designer needs sacking.
