Liverpool keen on Joseph Hungbo
My exclusive: Liverpool want U18 forward Joseph Hungbo. They are currently banned from signing academy players but that would not affect this potential signing as would be a pro.

Why are they banned? Doesn't seem like the smartest move for an academy player to run to a club that managed to get themselves banned from signing academy players!

They tapped up a schoolboy at Stoke
To view the link you have to Register or Login As a result of that, there is now a significantly longer process when a player moves from a Category 1 club to Category 2, or vice versa to ensure that there is no dodgy dealing like offering the parents a house or paying their school fees etc. Palace recently lost Nathan Young-Coombes, described to me as "the best U15 in the region" to Chelsea. They also took one of our U14s last year. England have been watching him for a couple of years. He was sensational at U15 level, has stalled a little since but has started this season well in a new role.

Poor writing from our friends at SLP....
'There is further good news for the academy...' How is tapping up one of our youngsters, and probably getting him for a few million at most, good news?

Maybe he is the back up to Benteke?

Hungbo has a pro deal with Palace so it would take a lot to get him I expect.

Surely he's got a better chance of breaking into the first team with us than Liverpool...er I don't know though, our recent record with decent youngsters is not that good.

Assume we would receive the equivalent of two bags of crisps.

So is there a point in having an academy when the big boys just filch the best from us ?

Clubs take players from each other all the time.
Kian Flanagan in our U23s was bought as a 14-year-old from Southend, Joshua Malcolm in our U18s was signed from AFC Wimbledon as an U14. Patrick Roberts at Man City joined Fulham from Wimbledon. But Palace have a 13-year-old (Fionn Mooney - Whitgift school) involved in the latest England U15 camp which is quite a feat. We also have three others in the same camp; Kevin Gonzalez, John Kymani-Gordon and Jadan Raymond (Whitgift school). Then in the U16s we have Brandon Aveiro who is being watched by England and has played U18s for us. In the 18s we have Hungbo. Jude Russell has played every single minute since his U18 debut a week after his 15th birthday in March. Yes, we do lose players to big clubs, but we also steal them from others and we manage to keep hold of some as well. Huddersfield are considering closing their academy, Brentford already did this. I don't think it's the way forward but I can understand why they're doing it. Whether there is any point - depends whether you look at it from the perspective of purely being a place for making money or making players for the first team, or whether you include the side of it that helps young people who may not otherwise have stood much of a chance in life.

What kind of player is he Woosie?
Target man, nippy striker, moody maverick or combination of all 3

This is why there's f all point bothering with an academy. It's not in the best interests of the player either.

He's best as a winger but he's played as a No 10 this season. He is extremely quick, good close control and a powerful shot. Likes to shoot from distance, crosses the ball well.
