To be honest,not sure how it's spelt or whether it's his first name or surname but a taxi driver colleague told me he picked him up at Barnfield and took him to holiday inn.

My colleague was a bit vague but he mentioned he'd been at Arsenal and either born or been at Brighton.

Out of those only he has played for Arsenal, but I'd be surprised if we signed a 22 year old midfielder: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isma%C3%ABl_Bennacer

Nothing regarding Brighton though.
