Antonio Nusa on his way to Brentford – expert rejoices at the election – Dagsavisen

67

A number of media outlets have reported in recent weeks that Tottenham have been very interested in securing 18-year-old Nusa. Now he will probably end up in Brentford instead.

The well-informed transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano writes on Sunday that an agreement between the clubs is in place. It Belgian newspaper KW claims to have information about the same.

– Brentford are extremely thorough when they sign players. They know (almost always) what they are getting, and how to use it. I think this will be very good, writes football expert Lars Tjærnås X/Twitter.

Boasting of the manager

The football expert explains to NTB that he believes it is “a wise choice by both parties”.

– He gets a manager who knows how to develop players, says Tjærnås.

Brentford has reportedly agreed to pay around NOK 350 million for the Norwegian winger. The player is also said to have given the green light with a view to a move to the Premier League.

Allegedly, the agreement means that Nusa will stay at Belgian Club Brugge until the end of the current season. In the summer he then joins Brentford.

Nusa made his debut for the Norwegian national team last autumn and delivered very well.

He became a crowd favorite after his national team debut against Jordan on 7 September, where he delivered a goal and an assist. In the following game against Georgia, he had two assists.

Ajer teammate

Now there are many indications that the Premier League will be the next stop for the 18-year-old.

In Brentford, Nusa will then become a team-mate with Kristoffer Ajer. In recent years, the club has made a name for itself by connecting Scandinavian players. Manager is Danish Thomas Frank.

Brentford is currently in 14th place in the Premier League table.

It is not the first time that Nusa will be high on the block of a club in the English top division. Last summer, Club Brugge reportedly turned down a big bid for the Norwegian from Chelsea.
