Emmanuel Mayuka's agent speaks out about Zambian's future

[Saint-Armstrong]

Emmanuel Mayuka's agent, Nir Karin:

 

“Southampton didn’t say anything and he has four more years on his contract. Next season, Mayuka is in Southampton. I don’t know who’s this ‘source’ you all copy from, Mayuka knows his situation better and he fights for his place. We believe he will play more next season. He’s just 22 and maybe you forgot he helped bring you the Africa Cup. Sad that the Zambia football family doesn’t help each other and focuses on bad things only and rumours. That’s one of the reasons you have so few players in Europe."

Nice to see a agent looking after his client rather than string the pot to get another move.

Must be lots of SWF followers in Zambia I guess?

Good to hear. Even if he hasn't made much of an impact so far I've still got high hopes for him.

£8m on him and Forren

Thought we only spent £3m on Mayuka and £4m on Forren...

 

At least his agent knows how the game works at saints!

I think if we end up in Europe next season it would be a great chance for Manny to show us what he can do. Played there for young boys and one of the squad players that could really benefit from European football.

He might be "just 22", but we did pay a fair amount of money for him you'd expect a bit of game time in his first season. Not Poch's fault as he came in late obviously, don't think it was an Adkins signing and don't think Cortese really minded whether he was played or not... bit of a weird situation all-round really, our transfer activity has been a tad weird.

So who are we dropping to give this wonderkid a game?
