Cardiff interested in Den Haag duo

Wed May 08, 2013 12:22 pm

We were recently interested in ADO Den Haag midfielder Jens Toornsta, unfortunately he moved to FC Uterecht for 800k euros.

Last week, scouts from Cardiff City attended the Den Haag game against Feyenoord to capture a glimpse of striker Mike Van Duinen and attacking midfielder Tjaronn Chery.

We were already interested in Van Duinen but have now looked into buying Chery as well. According to Dutch bloggers, they feel both are not Premier League standard.

Toonstra is good, we were continually linked with him on promotion.

Belgium is the place to search for youngsters. The Belgium national team will be class in the next 4 years.

A few centre backs with decent pace and some tough no nonsense ones in the Dutch league.

If we want to do well, we need a Belgium player.

Benteke, Hazard, Van Vertonghen, Dembele, Mirallas, Kompany, Lukaku.

Add Simon mignolet as keeper too, plus vermaelen, Fellaini, and boyata and that is a premier league winning 11.
