    I know he has been suggested a good few times but not sure if this video of Makato Mitsuta was shared.



    I have to admit from the videos I have seen I wasn’t that sure but in this one he looks a serious player, who could slot in on the right of our attack.

    Few players in Sweden I was watching last night

    17 year old Montader Madjed looks a serious talent. Already broken in to the first team and a 6 foot, left footed right winger..




    He already has 4 in 3 games this season....as well as 2 assists..

    Jusef Erabi for the same side. Looks quality. 19 year old, 6 foot and has 3 goals in 4 games..



    Hampus Finndell. This guy looks utter class by the way. Technically outstanding with some range of passing. Can sit deep and go box to box getting in amongst the goals..

    22 year old with loads of room for improvement. Think it was 7 goals and 2 assists last season..




    Sebastian Nanasi. Tricky, positive wee guy that is involved in loads of goals. Only 20 and plays sort of 8/10. Has 2 goals and 1 assist in 3 games..

    https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xb212b2hq3c

    Scored 5 and assisted 6 last season on loan in the Swedish top flight to Kalmar..

    His team played there. He scored the winning penalty in stoppage time. Good player with an eye for a pass and his crosses and set pieces are excellent.

    Quick and very hard worker too. He'd suit the demands of our system.

    Nestory Irankunda 17 year old winger from Australia.

    Next big thing over there atm, out of contract in the summer.

    4 goals 2 assists in 13 games for Adelaide and 8 goals in 3 games for Austrailia 17s.

    Surely worth a punt for free on the potential alone.

    Yesterday, he scored a very good goal and won MOTM again. If he keeps this good through this season, some European clubs will be interested in getting him this summer.

    A centre midfielder worth a look is Mohamed Kaba at Valenciennes in Ligue 2. He is still only 21 but is an absolute tank of a player. Over 6 foot tall, is strong in the tackle and covers ground quickly both on and off the ball.

    He has 2 goals and 4 assists in his 22 games and can play either as the deepest CM as a single pivot, part of a double pivot or as more a box to box midfielder.

    To go with his physical attributes defensively he reads the game very well which allows him to make interceptions and often strip opposition players of the ball and set up counter attacking situations. He also times his tackles very well.

    On the ball he has great close control and a good burst of pace which allows him to be press resistant and get his team moving up the pitch. He also had a sound passing game with a nice mix of short and longer passes.

    He looks ideal to compliment what we have for Europe, has that extra bit of physicality that the likes of Iwata, Johnston and Oh look like bringing to us.

    Financially he has one year on his deal come the summer and is still in ligue 2 so should be well in our price and wage range, whilst also offering serious sell on potential given he is only 21.

    He also has decent experience for a 21 year old with 60 first team games and has even captained the team this season a few times.

    I think he reminds me of a combination of Wanyama (defensively) in that he is so strong on the ball and off it, he is hard to disposes or get past and early good form Ntcham (attacking) due to his on ball ability when being pressed and ball carrying skills.

    I could see Kaba slotting in to our midfield options as an excellent addition that would bring something different that compliments our other options both from a physical and technical stand point.

    Watching that game back just now. He's been impressive so far. Kawasaki the dominant side but every time Niigata get Ito on the ball...Kawasaki are struggling to get near him.

    Reminds of Xavi a little bit lol

    Iv heard a lot of good things about Lennon Miller, 16 year old motherwell centre mid and son of Lee Miller, ex Falkirk and Aberdeen striker.

    He is showing a lot of promise and i think he comes from a big celtic family

    We desperately need serviceable home grown players. Josh Doig may be a good shout. Can provide cover at CB, LB and DM. I envision him as the partner of CCV in Ange's system. He's exactly what we are looking for: a left-footed, ball-playing centre half. Verona paid 3M for him last summer. Under normal circumstances, they'd have zero incentive to sell. That said, it's likely they well get relegated. They are sitting at 18th place right now, 5 points behind the 17th team. Problem is, he's linked with Napoli, Inter, Lazio and Roma. It's possible we cannot afford him anymore, but I'd love us to give it a try. Wouldn't be against paying let's say £10M for this kid. Assuming we win the league, we should have the money thanks to our automatic qualification for the Champions League group stage. We could also gain some extra financial flexibility by selling Starfelt.

    We would be mad not to go for him. His stats cannot be ignored. He has bags of ability, been saying it for a while now.

    For some competition at left back we could do worse than sign Souffian El Karouani if Bernabei isn’t viewed as good enough. He is only 22 but has caps for Morocco, is very good on the ball and very quick. He isn’t the tallest but seems pretty strong on and off the ball.



    Another young talent is 18 year old is Rokas Pukstas who is actually from the states but of Croatian descent. He can play CM, AM and off the RW and has broke into the Hajduk Split first team over the last 7 games, in 13 appearances this year total including as a sub he has 3 goals and an assist.

    Pukštas is Lithuanian by ethnicity, but came to play in Croatia through the connections established by Hajduk's Lithuanian DoF and also, a Lithuanian manager who was at that time leading Hajduk. Is considered decent.

    Would 100% take Duk. Usually a bit hesitant in wanting other SPFL players but he's an exception can tell he's a player and is good mates with Jota too so would settle in no bother. If Abada leaves in the summer, Duk would the ideal replacement.

    Not sure how prone to errors he is, but homegrown players do have an advantage if we have to replace players.

    Adrian Mazilu. 17 year old right winger playing for Farul..

    6 foot 1 and got a massive future. Think he has 4 goals in 10 and already capped for the full Romania squad..



    Ernest Nuamah. 20 year old, left footed, versatile winger for Nordsjaelland..

    Has 8 goals and 4 assists in 21 games. We should go all out for him. Rapid, tricky and such a threat..

    If we were to sell Abada, he's exactly the type we should be after..



    This is him yesterday

    Agreed. I like Duk. He's a cracking player.
