Brighton Bid And Lead Southampton For Talent ‘Clearly Better’ Than Lucas Bergvall
Brighton & Hove Albion have made a €7m bid for Southampton target Malick Yalcouye, IFK Goteborg’s teen wonderkid, who has been dubbed ‘clearly better’ than Lucas Bergvall.
Yalcouye is just 18 years old but has been turning heads with his displays at senior level for Goteborg.
Scouts have been flocking to watch the midfielder in action and Goteborg are clear about the level of talent they feel they have on their hands.
Bergvall is joining Tottenham this summer from Swedish side Djurgarden and there are big expectations attached to him.
For Goteborg sporting director Ola Larsson though, Yalcouye is ‘clearly better’ than the Spurs bound talent.
Larsson said in March: “After all, Bergvall has played more matches in the league but I think Malick is clearly better than him.”
