Chester40 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Story yesterday that some Love Island nobody was duped by a fraud pretending to be somebody important (oh the irony). He was a Chelsea reject who at one time Derby signed for £1.2million... Medi Abalimba...must have passed me by...?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was Kakuta that was signed for money by Chelsea. Abalimba was a nobody. Although reading a story on line, it does say we paid that much for him!

Anon Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 That reported fee is utter nonsense. The fee was undisclosed, but there is no indication it would've been anywhere near 1.2 million. Our other signings that summer were Barker 900k, Moxey 300k, and several free transfers. Is it really feasible that under GSE's austerity measures we used half of our transfer budget on a Southend United youth player? Is it really feasible that Nigel Clough, a manager not exactly known for his love of high risk speculative foreign acquisitions and a notorious skin flint to boot, would sink that much money into a completely untested player?
