It's telling that his club in Sweden were quick to say 'nothing to see here, he passed his medical, Olympiakos fucked around'. Then the player tells some long winded story about Olympiakos only wanting to pay him every 3 months. Lastly on the Greek side there's claims the deal fell through at or just following the medical.
I can believe that Greeks messed him about tbf, especially Fat Tony at Olympiakos, but the fact this keeps on happening... its definitely not pushing wages at this point, there's only so many times an agent can fuck that up.
I mean, just look at him. He looks 10 years older than the age he says he is.
Kinda love that a random Gambian bloke in his mid 30s can rock up in Sweden and win the league though.
Gives me some hope mate, I can still join the elite list of ginger footballers
He say it was also a grand every 3 months which is a not what a pro in the greek top flight would earn,
Even the Olympiakos fans, who know full well their owner's a crook, don't believe his story about only being offered payment every 3 months. None of the other players at Mjallby are attracting anywhere near this much apparent transfer interest, which tells me they also know what the problem is with him and want a big payday before it reveals itself.
First time i've thought about David Hopkin in a while.
George can play on both wings, at CAM and upfront.
Disappointing
Even that article gives a different age.This interview he gave with African press just after it fell through is just bizarre and the opposite of what the Greek journalist reported.
Manneh's transfer drama: fake failed medical and pressure from Olympiacos
Gambian midfielder Abdoulie Manneh has firmly denied reports claiming his highly anticipated move from Swedish side Mjällby AIF to Greek giants Olympiacos FC collapsed due to a failed medical.footy-africa.com
Correct, and I know I may be in the minority of one about this but I do not think we need more forwards. Asante is on the mend, Simms has not been off the boil, he may not be everyone's cup of tea but he does a job. Wright did exactly the same last year, went off the boil only to re-emerge and hopefully he does the same again. As well as that we have goals coming from elsewhere.
He was '21' when that was written.
If he can’t get near that shite West Ham team then he won’t improve us
He said he didn’t expect to bring in another forward saying he was really happy with what he got. It was a classic non answer to a question
