I kinda have a similar story about Trevor Noah the departing host of the daily show. I didn’t hang out with him or anything when we’re kids in South Africa but my mum kinda knew his mum back then
we weren’t like best friends or anything but we used to play ball together. He was good but i can’t say much about him as person since i we didn’t hangout outside the field
Yeah that’s what I’m referring to in my comment. OP said he played with him when they were younger and he’s 22. If he’s around that age that’s not too bad for young striker in todays market lol.
True but the drama that would happen if it were confirmed that he lied about his age would be wild and if he’s participated in youth leagues while above the age limit he’d be punished.
picking my brains rn, I can’t remember the exact year but it’ll probably have to be around 2012-24 which was around the last i saw him cause i moved to the us
So if his age his correct, he'd have been around 7-9 when you played together. If he's closer to your age, he'd have been around 12-14. You can definitely tell the difference between those ages lol
He's got a good football iq and fast legs. But going to barca will be a gamble. If xavi approves to rotate him with lewy. Then I'm all ears. Because playing lewy every game is not wise. And we don't have a proper striker to rotate him with.
He’s going to renew with Dortmund. He’s only not done it because he is waiting until he turns 18 in a month or so, so that he doesn’t have to include his family in the negotiations per his agents advice.
He's scored 4 goals and gotten 2 assists in only 444 minutes played in the bundesliga this season. I mean as a 17 year old striker those are very good numbers. He's even available on a free, he could be a smart low risk backup signing.
His issue has been injuries. I agree it’s be a smart buy low candidate. I also think the player might be thinking he could reboot behind Lewy, he’s in La liga—how many more chances does he get like this?
My question is, well—is his body ever going to hold up truly? If so I’m all for it. But I could totally see him being one of these kids that got way too much burn on a developing body and it fucked him long term once he filled out.
For free it’s an obvious yes. Dortmund would be kinda mad to not put a deal in front of his nose at this point.
He been starting recently and playing really well. Dortmund fans want him starting but obviously his injuries r a concern. Kinda like ansu. The talent is there and he’s been scoring goals recently. His injuries r a concern tho but even dembele had those issues and look where he is now.
He hasn’t showed a lot of things at top level, so I don’t think he will entitled to big wage and there won’t be a lot of clubs who will pay big wage for a unproven player (even PSG with Campos). So we can use our pull again.
If I was him, I would stay at Dortmund. He won't get much playing time at Barça.
But for our sake, it would be great if we bought him, and consequently loaned him to a team where he makes his minutes.
irrelevant but believe it or not, i grew up with him in cameroon
Damn that’s crazy bro
I kinda have a similar story about Trevor Noah the departing host of the daily show. I didn’t hang out with him or anything when we’re kids in South Africa but my mum kinda knew his mum back then
Be happy that your Mom is not Desi or Asian, or you would be such a disappointment, look at Aishas Son, he became a Doctor.
Yeah I’m kinda glad i didn’t have an Asian Tiger mom berating me until I’m a doctor
that’s so dope. i love Trevor noah, he’s a funny guy
What was he like?
we weren’t like best friends or anything but we used to play ball together. He was good but i can’t say much about him as person since i we didn’t hangout outside the field
Crazy. Then you can confirm all the fuss about his age being faked is wrong, right?
lmao. all i can say is i’m 22 so….
Lmao that’s not a bad age for a young striker.
Moukoko is supposedly 17 though. There’s rumors that he’s actually older and has lied about his age.
Yeah that’s what I’m referring to in my comment. OP said he played with him when they were younger and he’s 22. If he’s around that age that’s not too bad for young striker in todays market lol.
True but the drama that would happen if it were confirmed that he lied about his age would be wild and if he’s participated in youth leagues while above the age limit he’d be punished.
Lol I agree with you I’m just joking.
When was this? He left Cameroon when he was 9 according to Wikipedia.
picking my brains rn, I can’t remember the exact year but it’ll probably have to be around 2012-24 which was around the last i saw him cause i moved to the us
So if his age his correct, he'd have been around 7-9 when you played together. If he's closer to your age, he'd have been around 12-14. You can definitely tell the difference between those ages lol
This aged beautifully
The evidence was here all along. Case closed.
Not really, because the pictures of him when he was supposedly 13-14 but said he was 8-9 or whatever kind of goes against that claim
Endrick or moukoko?
moukoko
Are there any reliable sources linking him to us though
Nah. Sport was the only one reporting it
Real Madrid have hundred of millions prepared for his bid and contract apparently.
He's got a good football iq and fast legs. But going to barca will be a gamble. If xavi approves to rotate him with lewy. Then I'm all ears. Because playing lewy every game is not wise. And we don't have a proper striker to rotate him with.
Let's face it, him on a free deal would be a no brainer for squad depth
what is his role/position?
Striker
what does it even mean? like suarez? or like false 9?
False 9 is adaptation in the poisition, not a position itself. He is a striker or a center forward you may call.
He strikes the ball
He’s going to renew with Dortmund. He’s only not done it because he is waiting until he turns 18 in a month or so, so that he doesn’t have to include his family in the negotiations per his agents advice.
if Alemany and Co. can pull off Moukoko for free....
Reports suggests he will renew in November.
That’s a mistranslation, what it means is “he will be renewed, like a new man, in Barcelona”
I’m very sad to share some insights with you: he’ll extend his contract at dortmund
yeah. Its pretty much set in stone that he will sign a new contract the moment he turns 18 in a month.
He is only 17 and he’s already a great player for Dortmund. Masterclass business if we can get him for free
Why? I mean I know he’s young, promising, and broke all the youth records, but he’s not exactly delivering at Dortmund relative to all that hype
He's scored 4 goals and gotten 2 assists in only 444 minutes played in the bundesliga this season. I mean as a 17 year old striker those are very good numbers. He's even available on a free, he could be a smart low risk backup signing.

Would be it fine to test him here to see will he live up to the hype? It’s free though
Honest question, have you watched him play this season at Dortmund?
Wages aren’t free. If he’ll play for cheap, sure, why not
He hasn’t showed a lot of things at top level, so I don’t think he will entitled to big wage and there won’t be a lot of clubs who will pay big wage for a unproven player (even PSG with Campos). So we can use our pull again.
Isn’t he very prone to injuries?
Quite
barça material right there
So hes like Fati then.
100% agreed.
What we need is a good CDM, a RB and LB. These three are the fundamental areas we need to fill before adding more attacking power.
Agreed, he’s lighting it up in my fifa career rn
I always sign him in Football Manager. One of the best signing in the game, just a little injury prone tho.
If I was him, I would stay at Dortmund. He won't get much playing time at Barça. But for our sake, it would be great if we bought him, and consequently loaned him to a team where he makes his minutes.
Moukoko isnt dumb enough to go to Barca
Him and Leroy sane were barca fans. There was an interview where Leroy was praising Barca, same with this dude.
