Nusa looks a smart signing by Brentford if they do indeed pull it off, though it’s worth noting that Romano has not yet given this his trademark ‘here we go’, so there may still be time for one or two twists and turns to this story.
This looks like a blow for Tottenham, however, who would’ve done well to recruit this fine young player.
I told everyone this wouldn’t happening getting beat by Brentford hahahaha but does prove he’s got wrong mentally but on other hand we have ruined a good few young players careers over the years
