Leicester City and Crystal Palace are keeping a close eye on FC Midtjylland striker Franculino Djú.

 

This claim comes from Danish outlet Bold, who state the Guinea-Bissau player is someone that Midtjylland would ideally want to earn a profit from, even if he has signed a new deal very recently.

 

Clubs are taking notice of the 20-year-old, who has scored five times in the Superliga and four goals in European competitions this season.

 

Leicester City and Crystal Palace have scouted the player in recent weeks and officials have been present to take a ‘closer look’ at the talent.

 

It is Leicester City who seem more keen and have made several trips to Denmark to watch the starlet, having also scouted Franculino in the league game against Lyngby at the weekend.

 

As well as Crystal Palace, Besiktas have also been mentioned as a potential destination for the African in recent weeks. Previously, Bayer Leverkusen and Torino have been interested in him.

 

Since joining Midtjylland in the summer of 2023, Franculino has scored 27 goals and has 11 assists in all competitions for the Danish club.

Ai tells me

Franculino Djú is considered a mobile, agile striker with a strong focus on dribbling, quick movement off the ball, and creating space in the attacking third, often utilizing his pace to exploit channels and half-spaces, making him adept at receiving through balls and finishing with both feet; he is not known for being particularly dominant in the air but compensates with clever positioning and timing in the box; his style is characterized by dynamic runs, skillful dribbling, and a natural ability to combine with teammates in tight spaces. 

 

Key aspects of his play:

Pace and Movement:

Excellent acceleration and ability to make quick runs in behind the defensive line. 

Dribbling:

Comfortable with the ball at his feet, capable of beating defenders with skillful dribbling moves. 

Positioning:

Intelligent positioning within the attacking area, good at finding space between defenders. 

Finishing:

Can finish with both feet, capable of scoring from different angles. 

Link-up play:

Good at combining with teammates, creating chances with passes and one-two combinations. 

Pressing:

Active in pressing the opposition defense, attempting to win the ball back high up the pitch. 

 

Best suited position: Primarily plays as a central striker in a flexible attacking system like a 4-3-3, where he can utilize his mobility and creativity to exploit space.

Getting linked to players based in Scandinavia.

In terms of striker talents in Denmark, I’d rank him 2nd right now behind Kvistgaarden.

Franculino Dju, we needed him in the summer and could have got him for £8-10m. Still need him now.

I think they do this to me on purpose.

Thought they'd knocked the idea of summer tourneys on the head cus of the heat.

 

That being said, as someone said, we probably don't have to worry about him qualifying or going very far if they do manage it lol

Too young.  Need to sign more veterans on long term contracts.  Dufkin has this covered, once the summer window is open and the Saga Holiday Season is behind us.

This lad has it all by the way, exactly the type of striker we should have looked at last season and this season. Our attempts to fix the mess we are in didnt need to alter much whether we were in the Championship or PL. Most of the signings we were happy with post the 22/23 relegation occurred when we were an ambitious Championship side rather than confirming to the sorry clichés of newly promoted PL sides chucking money about on players that aren't worth it.
