Was hoping we would sign this lad last year thought the price was nearer £15 million to Rennes, he can play left wing due to his good control with both feet, would have been good as a sterling backup/ challenge but if you want to see him on song watch his game vs PSG at the end of the season, against a very good side.
I might have got me pounds mixed up with me euros!
 
I would like to hear what VK has to say about this kid. Left Anderlecht where he'd been since he was ten and went to Rennes fro £26m. Who, Rennes? My ERO sez they have a fantastic academy at Rennes but where are Rennes in the pecking order of French football cuisine? Were PSG, Marseilles, Monaco, Lens, Guingamp, Troyes interested? I have a sneaking feeling the lad has followed Sancho's moves! Rennes is the stepping stone to where? I seem to recall VK being asked if Anderlecht had any decent players and he did mention him.
Doku is one of the biggest talents ever produced by Anderlecht.Has a great mentality, incredible speed, and an splendid technique.

Doku only left Anderlecht because of the financial drama the club was in last summer. By selling him, the club was safe for a while. Rennes qualified for Champions League last season, and had some money to spend. Doku had no. problem to stay for another season, but the offer was to good to refuse, for a Belgian club, in financial trouble.

Fun fact :

Doku was almost a Liverpool player. The old manager of Anderlecht, Herman Van Holsbeeck (one of the reasons of the financial disaster) wanted to get a loan deal for Markovic, and wanted to include Doku in this deal. Luckily Doku decided to stay, 6 month later the club was sold, and Van Holsbeeck got fired. First thing the new owner did, was give our biggest talents a professional contract!
 
Sterling can‘t get past players like him tho. That guy is massively talented.
Sterling can get past players but let's say he couldn't.

Would you rather have a player who runs past players or a goal scorer like Sterling fluking his was past players.
Bearing in mind Doku has scored 7 goals in his professional career since 2018.

Man, Sterling has scored nearly half the goals in the last fortnight in a world class competition than Doku has scored throughout his career in lesser Leagues.

i am certainly not after moving Sterling on, but i do like Doku who has similar speed but is better with both feet and has better control/ touch he may have a better shot as well but Sterling is here,

Sterling is like 8 years older. Ofc he is the better goalscorer. I’ve also never said that we should move Sterling. Doku is just a player u don‘t want to see at Chelsea or another club in the PL. If that guy is already that athletic, good with both feet, hazardish in terms of dribbling why shouldn’t u try for him?
Since @2018 that guy was like 16 there.
 
He is a kid that needs the right coach to bring the best out of him and also help him elevate his game. Talented lad.
