Know nothing about him but should we start poaching these guys from the clubs with the good scouting systems :lol:
Moyes wanted him a few years back when he was a free transfer from Monaco. I haven't personally watched him, but a lot of French football watchers rave about him.

Very tidy player followed by PSG as well. Might be a little more defensive than Kante and closer to Makelele but Kante and Mendy are very similar in many ways. He's supposedly less shy and quite an important leader in Nice squad. Ranieri had him at Monaco so this would make sense.

Really good player on his breakout season. Reminds me a bit of Hazard. Think he will go for a higher price however.

Far too low surely. The quoted price for Embolo was £25-35m. Ounas would be higher if we're going by talent I'd reckon.

This kid looks like a light version of Mata. Also, from my understanding he's a bit of a cnut... and not in a good way.

Bouhafsi as reliable as a journalist gets. Haven't watched but from what I have read he sounds like an exciting player

I got the feeling that the United name is added to the list of interested clubs, in every player on the planet.
Wonder who we are actually in for.

Battling it out with Stoke, Southampton and a team owned by an energy drink.

The level of the rest of his suitors doesn't exactly fill me with confidence.

Sign him up, he's the next Mahrez!

Seeing as three of the most sought after players this summer are employed by West Ham and Leicester, I wouldn't worry too much about that sort of thing.

Ounas is an exciting player, he has fantastic balance, close control and acceleration, he'd have to adapt like Silva given his size but if we could get him for €20M he'd be a good addition to our wings.

IMO, Spain would be a better place and at a club where he can play a lot.
I agree.

Point taken. Still if I am not mistaken our two French scouts @JPRouve and @Downcast has said that he isn't ready for the PL or a club like United yet.
Let's say I'm rather inclined to see him like the next 'Ryad Boudebouz' (26 years now): potentially a decent offensive player in the French league.

I don't follow a lot Bordeaux but I don't see something special like when you watch some players at the similar age like Dembélé, Martial...

There are some younger French players more interesting imho

I may be wrong :)

I had Khazri in mind.

No he's fallen down to 4th choice behind Toure. Lovren has improved loads since Klopp came in, and Sakho was the best of the rest. I think Matip has been brought in as a starter too so Skrtel was always going to struggle to get any game time.
Cheers.
