A lot of money for an up and comer with no top league experience, much like Baleba was. The club must have confidence in him to pay the fee and deal with the agent situation.

Interesting. Seems like a few other hyped African kids have been coming through the Nordics recently, I want to say Molde in particular but that may just be perception.

Why is it that so many of these African talents come to Europe via Scandinavia (France too but that's more longstanding)? Are the visa arrangements comparatively simple? Is it more difficult for us to be scouting for them directly from academies in Africa as we do in South America?
