Bongani Zungu

Post by Newcastleclaret93 » Sat Aug 01, 2020 11:41 am

27 year old centre mid for Amiens in France.

Posted a tweet last night of him and Erik Pieters. The tweet was quickly deleted but it has done the rounds.

Linked heavily with rangers but wonder if he could be on his way to the clarets

He’s compared to Patrick Viera in the press...

Apparently they want 5 million for him. Rangers have offered less with lots of add ons.
You'd imagine that being a South African international his English will be acceptable.
He's in the last year of his contract.

His agent must double as a press officer then.

His stats are underwhelming, not that stats are the be all and end all, but I'd hope we are after someone who's played a lot more regular than he has.
He's either injury prone to miss games, or not good enough to start. Either way we don't need him.

He's mates with Pieters from Amiens. Probably just catching up while he's in town.

Maybe it’s because of all the Covid restrictions etc .... they’d rather not publicise their meeting

Not a single tackle amongst those clips. Not like Viera in that aspect.
