AND so it begins...

"Youssef Msakni | Brighton ‘very close’ to signing Tunisia international, expected to ‘fly to London’ soon to complete deal."

http://sportwitness.co.uk/brighton-...ional-expected-fly-london-soon-complete-deal/

Anyone? Me neither...
I reckon 50 mins at most before Naylor snookers this one...

A bit more info just in case this has any legs, currently in the Quatari league, winger, 28 yrs old, scored 23 league goals, 14 assists in 20 apps last season, missed out on world cup squad due to and ACL injury. Seemingly still injured as no stats for this season, so fits our profile for signings perfectly!

And of course, the highlight reel:

Thankfully the African Cup of Nations is now in the summer so we won't be losing him immediately after signing him in January.

Pity this thread has only just been brought to my attention, I shall bear it in mind for future rumours. Having now read the template, I think that thread now makes you a fully qualified journalist or something. You should apply for a job at HITC.

But you see what's happened.

It's taken 8 posts to get a photo of Ms Mankini and that's an absolute travesty.
Even now I still have no idea of his:-

Transfermarkt value.

Colour of FIFA card
&
Twitter followers.

Hang your head in shame.

Is all that supposed to come before Naylor rubbishes it? Because I was saving it for after, for a "this is what you could've won"-type moment.

He does have almost 600k followers on instagram however...

Brighton factually.....
A 28 ans, Youssef Msakni va-t-il enfin rejoindre l’Europe ? D’après la presse tunisienne, le milieu offensif d’Al Duhail va passer des tests avec Cardiff City, Watford et Brighton, trois clubs de Premier League, en vue d’un éventuel prêt de 6 mois. Pour rappel, l’international tunisien s’est récemment remis d’une rupture des ligaments croisés qui lui a fait manquer le Mondial 2018. Il est attendu en Angleterre ce dimanche.

Interesting showreel. Would he get a work permit? As for his Missus, he is punching the boy!

I like that he seems to take a lot early which I think is good and suggests he could translate his form more easily. I wonder if they are looking at him as an option to Gross rather than as a winger? Age might be an issue, I would think they would want someone younger ideally but he looks like a talent for sure on that showing at least.

Story came from here first possibly > https://www.realites.com.tn/2018/12/youssef-msakni-rejoindra-la-premier-league/

"The Tunisian international and current Al Duhail striker Youssef Msakni has expressed his intention to leave the Qatari club. After having worn the colors of Al Duhail for 6 years, Msakni is seriously preparing to join the Premier League. According to concordant sources, Msakni is close to joining Brighton (ranked 13th). According to the same sources, the Tunisian striker will soon fly to London, especially since the Qatari club is ready to do without his services following his cruciate ligament injury that had deprived him of the Russian world."

Would mean 1 of our non-HGPs is OFF.

Schelotto, and Suttner would be the obvious ones, but why sing another winger ? ???

Elsewhere bring reported Watford and Cardiff also interested > http://www.afrik-foot.com/al-duhail-youssef-msakni-teste-en-premier-league

Jut watched his showreel and it would appear he's really good at ripping monkey tennis teams apart in an empty stadium... Yay!

Perfect, get him in for Palace Away.
