    Sounds like it's off according to a German Hannover Twitter account. Screenshot_20180828-211856.png

    I don't think its quite off yet. It's not the fee that's the issue, it's how it is to be paid. Nitty gritty bits thst can be sorted.

    Hope so Darfield, as from what I hear Stendel really wants this lad in. Let’s hope we get it resolved fairly quickly.

    Someone has doctored Wiki to look like he's signed for Coventry.

    It's almost as if just anyone can edit Wikipedia!

    Anybody can.
    That's why it is not recognised as an academic source.

    Quite right.
    Can anyone remember Cole Kpekawa the 'professional footballer and semi-professional plate spinner', or Tom Kennedy being ironically compared to Roberto Carlos?
    I first found this out when trying to settle a pint bet over where Jenson Button was from. The opening paragraph, on Wiki, started, 'Jenson Button is a f**king gay formula one driver...', that got alarm bells ringing for starters.

    The best one I've ever seen was on Benedict Cumberbatch's page. It said something along the lines of him being good mates with Mark Ronson and that Ronson once played the Thundercats theme at his birthday party, replacing the chorus with Cumber-Cumber-Cumber-Cumberbatch!!

    I hope this is true. To come up with a rhyme for Cumberbatch is a challenge.

    Haha would be pretty awesome. I googled it earlier and only reference to it I could find was a reddit quoting the same edit on wiki. I'm guessing it's not sadly :(

    The obvious sarcasm was clearly not as obvious to everyone. ;)

    What a weird thread. Supposed to be about a young German signing, and winds up as anything but.....
