Seen this name, think he is called Gai not Gail as in the link, before in the summer I think. Released from his contract by Barcelona but now dubbed the new Messi by the Mirror http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/news/Transfer-news-Manchester-City-are-close-to-signing-an-Israeli-youngster-who-has-been-described-as-the-new-Lionel-Messi-article591053.html

Strange that Barca would have let him go if he was any good but I was under the impression he got injured and they cancelled his contract by mutual consent. City doesn't seem to be the best place for an injury prone youngster to be heading at the moment though, however good he might be.

interesting. i thought this deal was dead a long time ago.

I wonder if Mr Sheik has bought an unusual number of items from the Barcelona club shop for say £5m before they released him, or maybe have a proper signing lined up for Jan that we will pay over the odds for..???
