2011/12 Daisuke Matsui @ Dijon FCO (FRA) Thread [R]

Good on him, he looks to still have that excellent touch.

Dijon's loss tbh. Good luck to him.

Matsui seems to be an option for Legia in case they don't get Sergio Koke as the club can't afford them both. Tomorrow is deadline to register players for the latter stage of Europa League, so we will know until tomorrow night.

Koke left Warsaw today without a contract as far as I know.

Sergio Koke ... ahahahahahahahaha

Former OM player I guess...

Yes ... And not a good one. Remembered because of his long nose.

According to this article Matsui won't be signed. The reason behind that is budget and club's priority on buying a FW even though Matsui was accepted by the coach.

So it doesn't matter that they didn't get Koke?

It looks they had money prepared for Koke and Matsui, Koke changed his mind (too low salary, maybe he was in the meantime in talks with a club which could pay him more), the amount of money stayed the same and now they have to sign another striker no matter what until 1st February which means there could be not enough money for Matsui. Fans are disappointed for taking JNT class player for trial and not signing him after all.

So back to the depressing shite in France then?

A return in Hiroshima would be great. Sanfrecce could be dangerous with him.

He never played for Hiroshima, hint, it's the other purple team.

What happens now?

You're right, i made a mistake. Also a return in Kyoto, raising Kubo e Miyayoshi.. wouldn't be so bad.

Dijon's coach probably won't use him anymore. He told him and his agent he doesn't plan with him.

Nice for him to hear that. Well 4 days left.

Sorry to hear that. but He's seem almost invisible at Dijon, no playing time, etc. Maybe it'll be best for him and his wife and child to go back home to Japan.

Recieved offers from Ukraine and Thailand.

A big step down, don't you think? J.League would be much better, considering he have offers. When does the transfer window close, anyway?

Is Matsui still playing football?

Seriously, what's going on with him?

He's playing with the reserve team for the rest of the season, case closed.

Sad. Why the fkc could'nt he find another team when the manager clearly said he is not in his plans.

Sad.

Thanks for the update though.

I have already said: back to Japan. It's my humble advice for him, in Europe he isn't valued so much anymore..

Hopefully back to Kyoto Sanga!
