Moussa Marega, Vitória de Guimarães – loan from Porto
Born in Les Ulis – the same tough Paris neighbourhood as Thierry Henry, Patrice Evra and Anthony Martial – Marega has not exactly had a conventional career. The striker left the second-tier French side Amiens in 2014 for the Tunisian club Espérance but was then sold to Marítimo in Portugal. A successful season caught the eye of Sporting Lisbon and Marega had looked set to join them last January before Porto hijacked the deal and signed him on a contract with a €40m release clause. He was then loaned out to Vitória de Guimarães at the start of this season and has not looked back, scoring 10 goals from nine appearances to lead the Primeira Liga scorers. He is quick and dangerous in the air; Tottenham, Liverpool and Sunderland are among the clubs to have been linked and Porto can expect a quick return on their investment if Marega continues in the same vein. Estimated value £15m.

The top European clubs have scouts at countless games. Hundreds of players are watched throughout a season, and sometimes a club or an agent will use that to generate publicity even though they know there is nothing really in it.

Hang on though....if he was born in the same neighbourhood as Thierry Henry, Patrice Evra and Anthony Martial then he must be fucking incredible.

It would be a criminal oversight not to sign him on this point alone as we all know that football talent is directly linked to the neighbourhood you are born in.

Something to do with the water I think. It gets into your feet and makes you good in some places, but in others it just makes you crap.

Not seen anything of this fella, but i have however seen supporters of the big 3 in Portugal slating him fairly regularly over on Reddit. Seems a bit of a laughing stock atm

Apparently he was very close to joining Sporting originally, then Porto 'Gazumped' them at the last minute. I imagine him turning out to be pants has given endless hours of amusement to the Sporting fans.
