We Cheaped Out Again

By The Boy -

Good evening my beautiful Brexiteers.

“In Breel Embolo, we have been able to bring in a highly talented attacker, who already has a lot of international experience and was also in demand at several other top European clubs,” said Shalke 04 sporting director Christian Heidel.

Gladys told us recently that Spurs were more than a bit interested in the boy.

Alas, it now emerges that we were unable to reach an agreeable deal for the 19 year old Swiss international.

As Glad pointed out on the phone earlier, the fact that Embolo signed for an undisclosed fee, whatever way you want to look at, he wasn’t expensive.

The 6’1″ striker scored 10 league goals in his last two seasons for FC Basel, and now he’s been given a 5 year deal to play in the Bundesliga.

Given the challenges THFC faces in the forthcoming seasons, I’m staggered that we aren’t snapping up talent of this calibre.

Oh hang on, maybe we’re signing 3 better strikers next week – that’ll be it.
