Rodrigo Possebon

We were supposed to have signed this Brazilian, box to box midfielder. Any word on him or was it all lies?

It's from a german site. I don't know where they got the info from.

That's a bit strange, but hopefully it's right. Always nice to add talent to the academy. Perhaps Tony could ask around about whether or not he's coming over next summer..?

is that for definite? he's definitely not listed on Internacional's website as a player now, but i'd not heard anything about him joining.

wiki says "Possebom was expected to sign a pre-contractual agreement with Manchester United, but will not join the club due to other clubs being interested in him. Reports say the deal was worth 910,000 Brazilian reais (Ģ240,000)", for all that's worth (probably nothing).

good news if we've signed him, might get to see him in the reserves before long.

So Possebon is actually at the club now? I didn't see anything about this, hasn't been with the reserves.

There is a game on thursday in the cup he might figure in.
I think he is more than 18, so he should be able to play.

There hasnīt been anything yet by the club about the twins, so that tells you something.

Good point.

Well hope you're right would be nice to see the lad in action for us. If you get any more concrete news let us know. Cheers.

Official website is woefully out of date, that's for sure. No mention of that Irish kid, Brady, either.

How'd you find out about Possebon anyway? He's been like the Scarlet Pimpernel for about a year now.

Only one player added to the 'players and staff' section on manutd.com. Mark Jones, 74 years young and with 121 caps for England. Also, he died in the Munich plane crash. Not bad.

Well, If that was the case I would be able to name him, but not many would think it was for real.
It is actually a human that is behind that information.

Did you get any word on the Nigerian twins or any other of those players we've been linked with? What about Joshua King, will he figure in our youth team much this season?

King is playing with the u-16s, also Cofie. The u-18s have so many bodies, it is difficult for the u-16s to get a game, even Ajose doesnīt get a sniff these days.
The Nigerians I have no more information on.

Brady's unlikely to get mentioned i suppose, he's not an apprentice/scholar yet and you know what the club are like these days with kids below the u18's.

Possebom is the way it's spelt consistently on Internacional's website, so that looks like the right spelling.

He certainly seems to have moved on somewhere. Last year he was playing (looks like central midfield) for their juniors in the Sao Paolo cup - think he may have been captain. This year he's not on their roster. I'd trust oskar and say we bagged him in a similar way to Fabio and Rafael, who we also stopped from playing for Internacional.

just speaking to a brazilian acquaintance on another forum, he says Inter rescinded Possebom's contract in the last week/10 days and that he thinks it's almost certain that's because he's joined us.

would be nice if the club could confirm it, but i won't hold my breath.

It seems to be more of a rumour than a real transfer.

He's still being linked to other clubs so I'd imagine that rumour is untrue.
