Francis Laurent

[blueveined]

Northampton fans seem to think he's the right winger mentioned at the bottom of this article and that he'll be joining them very shortly -

As with Akinde, the club are reluctant to publicly name their new transfer target but it is a player who commanded a six-figure transfer fee very recently and who featured among the leading goalscorers in the division last season.

This time around, though, the striker has found his path to the first team at his current club blocked by the red-hot form of their first-choice strike partnership.

Can only think the striker they are signing is Tom Pope from Rotherham, seems to be the only one who fits the bill.

I've read that the striker is Calvin Zola.

Got the Mrs who is half french to translate and basically the first chap says he is sad to see Laurent go as he is a good player.

Good signing for them at this level - bound to score against us - what price Christophe ends up there too?

 

[GBJ]

Laurent has got some immense potential. Will he ever fully utillise it though?

Bound to score a hattrick against us aswell
