Brian Brobbey wants to be a red

Ajax’s new star has Manchester United transfer dream – Summer transfer increasingly likely

http://sportwitness.co.uk/ajaxs-new-...ring-transfer/

Dortmund involved in the convo which suggests he's a decent talent. Leipzig making moves too.

Anyone seen him play?

Ajax are keeping the door open for him to stay, but it’s thought the 19-year-old’s agent, a certain Mino Raiola, will be moving him elsewhere.

oh.

Seen him play most games ...

Unsure where the massive hype is building from...oh check out who his agent is....Did quite well in their reserves, only scored twice for the full team, big strong, Lukaku type striker...

Saw him come off the bench and win the game for Ajax. Brief cameo, but effective. Last I heard Ajax sill hoping he'll stay. Unlikely though. Has a Dortmund vibe about him.

The forward has been attracting interest already and he is certainly an exciting prospect, drawing comparisons to both Romelu Lukaku and Didier Drogba. “He is the fastest player at Ajax. He runs 30m in 3.7 seconds. He weighs 91 kilos and has a low BMI, he jumps higher that Cristiano Ronaldo,” said his youth coach at Ajax, John Heitinga, in 2019.

And he scores goals. Lots of goals: 26 with Ajax’s under-17s, 42 with the under-19s and 15 in 27 matches with the reserve side, Jong Ajax. He also has 16 in 24 games for the Netherlands under-17s. And Brobbey has wasted no time making his mark for the Ajax senior side under Erik ten Hag. Three goals and an assist in 145 minutes gives Brobbey a strike rate of a goal every 48 minutes and he banged in the winner against Lille in the Europa League to hand Ajax the advantage in their last-32 tie with the Ligue 1 leaders.

Sounds like exactly what we need tbh.

Looks like a young Yakubu.

Edit: he doesn’t look any younger.

He's scored three senior goals...

Should stay at Ajax for a few seasons, but Mino has his disgusting claws into him already...

Based on clips and potential he could be about to explode. Only turned 19 about a week ago no.

Same age group as our boy Amad who just went for a hefty chunk of cash despite not having many senior minutes under his belt.

On a free we should be in there imo. Seems to be an intelligent mover and finisher to go with his obvious physical gifts. Could be the black Haaland??

Low BMI? Could be just what we need tbf

Club has had great luck with the last two signings from Ajax, bring him on (to the bench)!

19 saw this thought it was about the former usa coach who managed fulham

I'm sure Ajax won't be too excited if he came to United after the Blind and DVB backlash

he may be a guy for the future but we need a forward that can make a contribution right away

30m in almost 4 seconds isn't fast...

World record for 30m is 3.81 seconds

3.81 seconds
The world record for the 30m sprint is 3.81 seconds by Churandy Martina of the Netherlands. There may be sprinters who could run faster, but the 30m sprint race is not an offical IAAF distance and races are rarely conducted over this distance.

Thats from a standing start...

Ok, he may be faster than US shot putter, Randy Barnes, but he's slower than Steve Backley... https://www.topendsports.com/testing...-tests-30m.htm

Fair enough, I had assumed his time for 30m was from a standing start

Bloody hell, who is going to be the subject of a "come to United" thread next

Comparisons with other black footballers, you say?

Mino means no no. Enemy of the club.
