The Palace Fan 3,400 Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Monaco have paid Lyon £17.5m for 16-year-old striker Willem Geubbels. Geubbels made two appearances in the French top flight last season and was the first player born in the 21st century to play in Ligue 1. "The arrival of Willem Geubbels proves our ambition to develop the best talent in European football at our club," director Vadim Vasilyev told the club's official website. "With patience and work we are sure he'll get to the top." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
