The strange case of Gounongbe

Fri Sep 01, 2017 6:18 am

What on earth has happened to Frederic Gounongbe?

i can't recall any mention of him for months now. He has a squad number on the official site but played no part in pre season and has not been in any of the match squads.

He has not played in any development matches as far as I'm aware and has not been mentioned at all during the transfer window.

Is he injured? If so, there has been no update that I can recall, no mention of him being back in training or when he might return. Has anyone seen him at training?

He's like the invisible man. :o

I was thinking the same last night, very strange. Warnock once said that Gounongbe was one of the "better" players in training. :?:

He has had an operation for something so that is why he has not taken part in any games, and it does look like it is a long term thing :thumbup:
