doggface Posted 28 August, 2012 Share Posted 28 August, 2012 I have some interesting info on this one... A contact of mine is an African agent and they had Mayuka on their books as a kid. He had agred a deal to take him either FC Twente or Porto but he stitched them up and signed a 24 month FIFA agreement with Nir Kan...one of the top agents in Isreal and ended up at Maccabi Tel Aviv. Apparently a bit of a loose cannon at that age... having said that like alot of Africans apprently he is approx 24y.o! So let's wait and see on this one..... Apparently a top player very fast, great feet, best attribute is his finishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goneawol Posted 28 August, 2012 Share Posted 28 August, 2012 http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/aston-villa-transfer-news-rickie-1283963 Meanwhile, Southampton are ready to sign Zambia striker Emmanuel Mayuka - who is a personal favourite of club chairman Nicola Cortese. Saints have pushed ahead of QPR in the chase for Mayuka, who has caught the eye of Swiss-born Cortese while playing for Switzerland's Young Boys club, and are willing to pay him more than the Londoners are. Mayuka will cost around £3million and needs a work permit, but should be cleared to arrive before the window shuts on Friday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 28 August, 2012 Share Posted 28 August, 2012 Another forward? Really? More of a wide forward in our system. If he is playing out wide instead of Guly or Rod that's fine by me. Lambert, Rod, Sharp, Lee, Mayuka, Puncheon, Guly, Lallana, Ramirez? That's a lot of attacking tallent right there. Welcome aboard Yukka! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleonothing Posted 28 August, 2012 Share Posted 28 August, 2012 Does that mean a striker on the way out? Or are we going to play 2 up front. Surely we didn't buy j-rod to play on the wing did we? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Restark19 Posted 28 August, 2012 Share Posted 28 August, 2012 Anyone else wondering what's going to happen to Sharp? Something tells me he'll get phased out now, strange as he's only been at the club 8 months. He's definitely already behind Lambert and J-Rod and (even though i'm not 100% sure about his quality) will likely be behind Lee. Doesn't make sense to sign Mayuka for him to not play so I'm assuming Sharp will be behind him too..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sfc4prem Posted 28 August, 2012 Share Posted 28 August, 2012 Will play on the wings or as an inside forward I imagine. Very, very, very pacey. Great feet, skills and finishing. I await for him to impress. Good signing IMO, and won't have cost too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markr27 Posted 28 August, 2012 Share Posted 28 August, 2012 Interesting that he appears to wear No.24 frequently in the youtube vid, and that number happened to be vacant in the squad list...

S-Clarke Posted 28 August, 2012 Author Share Posted 28 August, 2012 Well that's what you call Gazumped, signed under the noses of QPR who had already agreed a fee and contract with the player. He's not and out and out striker by the way. He's a very, very quick forward who can play anywhere along the front 3. So fits in with what we're been trying to do formation wise, and adds that much needed injection of pace and spark in the final 3rd we lacked so badly. Welcome aboard.
