Thread: Jonathan Benteke offered to United

  1. #1

    Jonathan Benteke offered to United

    Hearing Jonathan Benteke (younger brother of Christian Benteke has been offered to us after being released by Crystal Palace . He didn't do much there but has some talent , pacey with good strength. Might only be rumours but could be interesting.

    Sounds dodgy. 3 goals in 40 appearances at a poor standard? For the money we'd pay him why not get a proven championship striker?

    The top division in Belgium is a far higher standard than the Scottish championship and Zulte finished 3rd top last season.

    Having said that I have no idea if he is dud or not.

    All I'll say is we shouldn't take a gamble on any players, tried and tested is what we need this season

    a) the Belgian top flight is better than the Scottish Premiership never mind the championship
    b) he was playing in said league when he was 18. Must of been something about him if he was getting game time at that level at 18.
    c) he was bought by a premiership outfit and has been training and learning from strikers like his brother

    N'koyi hasn't played at his level but we welcomed him with open arms? Jackie is gone people, the youtube days (allegedly)are done. I'd be happy to offer the boy a trial if there is any truth in this. My gut feeling is that he will end up in the lower leagues down south though.

    Yep. Anyone who's been around at that level is well worth a look for the likes of us.
