Mushaga Bakenga

[2mas]

Hannover confirms their interest, and Bakenga seems to be interested.

Schmadtke: „Es gibt Signale, dass er Interesse hat. Es hängt jetzt davon ab, was Rosenborg will, aber das ist ein bisschen schwierig. Das kann auch etwas dauern, weil die sind schon im Weihnachtsmodus...“

Sold to Club Brugge for €2 million.

The Dutch version of the press release is somewhat more revealing:



Hij verkoos een transfer naar Club boven andere geïnteresseerde ploegen, o.m. Borussia Mönchengladbach, Hannover en Standard.

Mushaga Bakenga geldt in Noorwegen als één van de meest beloftevolle jonge spitsen. Als jeugdinternational kon hij al rekenen op de belangstelling van topclubs zoals Bayern München en Manchester City.

The interest from Standard Liege is new for me. I guess the talk about Bayern and City is "sales info" from Bakenga's agent.

I wish "Mush" all the best in Bruges, and do advise him not to follow his coach's recreational habbits.

I'm not sure it's a 'great' move for him, the Belgian league seems to be on par with Tippeligaen, Scottish league as opposed to the major leagues. Still, good money for RBK.

[Mustrum Ridcully]

Good money indeed! But to be honest I rank the belgian league a fair bit over the norwegian one. However I'm sure Mush would have gotten a better offer from a bigger club in a bigger league had he only been more patient.
