LOSC Lille, Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid chasing Gueida Fofana of Le Havre – Ligue 1 news
Reports in French media suggest that French Ligue 2 club Le Havre AC youngster Gueida Fofana is attracting considerable amount of interest from Ligue 1 side LOSC Lille and Paris Saint-Germain while Spanish La Liga giants Real Madrid are also interested in
the 20-year-old midfielder.
Gueida Fofana has become an integral part of the Le Havre side since his introduction to Les Ciel first-team in 2009. In his first two seasons, the youngster has made 57 league appearances for the Upper Normandy club and his performances in Ligue 2 have
not gone unnoticed.
Though LOSC Lille and Paris Saint-Germain are keen on signing the defensive midfielder, reports suggest that Real Madrid have already started making moves in order to sign the highly-rated France Under-20 international.
Following the recent news of manager Jose Mourinho’s failure in convincing Lassana Diarra to stay at Madrid, the Portuguese tactician is looking to bring in a young defensive midfielder who could take the place of the departing Frenchman.
Right now, Real Madrid’s squad is full of midfielders and the Spanish giants might be looking to offload http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Pedro-c29582 Leon in order to make room for a few new arrivals this summer.
Zinedine Zidane, the recently-appointed sporting director of Real Madrid is being considered as the person who has identified Gueida Fofana as a possible player for the future and might contact the player’s club in the coming days.
However, Real Madrid might have to speed things up a further notch in order to acquire the talented midfielder as the likes of PSG and Lille are also keen on the youngster.
With so much interest in the player, Le Havre might find it hard to keep hold of Gueida Fofana who is rapidly becoming one of the hottest prospects in French football.
However, a move to Real Madrid might also turn out to be a bad one for the youngster as Fofana might find it hard to break into the first team next summer. Already, competition for starting places at Real Madrid is tough and with the arrival of the likes
of Mesut Ozil, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nuri-Sahin-c28251, the youngster might be consigned to a peripheral role.
A move within http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899 would be a wise decision by Fofana as the 20-year-old would get ample opportunities to impress and to gain more experience.
