Just wait for something concrete to land and forget about football for a few month. If not, you’ll go round the fucking twist I'm ill at home with nothing else to do man. I need something. Anything.

Kilcline Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 5 minutes ago, KennyUtd said: I'm ill at home with nothing else to do man. I need something. Anything. How about thinking about all the failed deals, rejections, and near misses that must go on that we never hear about? Up to you whether you take that as "well at least we don't hear every depressing detail" or "fucking hell we really are shit at this" Get well soon!

I may be wrong but isn’t the issue here that Brentford don’t have an academy team or similar? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coco Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 12 minutes ago, KaKa said: This is a 19 year old signing for Brentford from Koln in Germany though Why does that matter? Kids family want them both to be taken care of. It's not an unreasonable request. If a club can drop €50m on a player, they can do a deal for his brother.

His family can want whatever they like, doesn't mean they should be making such requests this early in his career. Huge red flag. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're doing a deal worth €50m for him, they already consider him a big deal. Your notions of what constitutes a red flag are irrelevant. If he's a good player, and somebody wants him, they'll do that deal, no question. Plenty of clubs in the past have signed players for similar purposes, to help a star buy settle, avoid homesickness, etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbo Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 It’s odd that it got to this stage without this coming up. Did they turn up and the mother said “this tall boy is Malek, he is also here to sign a contract”. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
