I've heard mousonda is travelling is on his way up to glasgow tonight, he has been booked in for a medical tomorrow morning 18 month loan deal.

Another loan, another prospect
Is there a kid on option to buy like the Edouard deal. We all know Celtic won’t pay 7 million for him even if he did bang in the goals.
Musonda heard good things but what kind of price would he command?
28 Jan 2018 17:42:54
It doesn’t matter Kev since it’ll just be kid on.

To be honest Kev, Musonda is a step up from any other prospect we have apart from Ajer. Musonda is a quality player that would be in the first team for any mid table epl side. I don't care if he's a loan or not, he's a quality player that i hope can add that creativity we've been lacking.

Kev He would be a min of £7mill maybe as much as £12 mill. So when posters start talking about Moussa being a £20mill player have a look at this guy. Better than Moussa.

I think everyone would rather we signed players permanently but the way I look at it is:
1. Could we pay the price Chelsea would want for him? No
2. Is he better than what we have and will improve our team? Yes
3. Could we buy a player of his quality from another team/ league? Probably not
He’s like Roberts. As long as he helps us win games and trophies and improve in Europe then I couldn’t care less if he’s only on loan. 18 months is a good period to get him for too.

If Musonda reaches his full potential we will have a very special talent at paradise. The way we sell good players on and don’t properly reinvest doesn’t it matter if we buy him? A year and a half will boost the squad quality.

Dembele is a prime example of how long we are able to hold on to a top quality young player. Ad say 2 seasons at most before a team from down south sniffing around. So if we get a top quality loan player like paddy or Musonda then I have no problem with it but our team should never be full of them.
We should always try our best to have options to buy them as well.

Got no issue with loaning a quality player, as long as other areas are strengthened.
28 Jan 2018 21:46:36
At least this is a 18 month loan and not til the end of the season.
28 Jan 2018 22:30:02
If we indeed get him for 18 months, I will be delighted. It's the way of the world for clubs short of the folding stuff and even shorter on the will to spend it.
If he is half as good as Ed says he will be a brilliant addition.
I'm away to check him out on youtube. :)
{Ed007's Note - The question is though - and let's get the important stuff out the way asap - does he support the Republican movement? #CharlyAndTheBhoys

As long as he doesn't spend his time singing about it I don't care.
I checked the boy out and he certainly looks as if he has a future in the game.
If all goes well tomorrow, he should go straight in against the wee Huns, but I bet you Rogers will play Mcgreggor instead and bring him on about 60mins after McG has done less than feck all.
I hope he won't do that but I think it's on the cards.

I've got it on good authority that he wholeheartedly does ed. If it doesn't work out on the pitch for the lad he's going for a trial in the gb to start the songs.
{Ed007's Note - KT has been up all night teaching him ROH for his initiation ceremony with the squad.}
