Found this article - looks like the lad actually WANTS to play for Leeds. A step up from Cafetieri or whatever his name was:

(Step up in respect of desire rather than skill which remains to be seen)
I have to see normally YouTube reels make players look good.
Having watched he looked clumsy
Buckley would have been a better option
I don't want us to overpay but the going rate sometimes needs to be paid
People who we should pay the going rate, no your wrong.
We should pay how much we (Leeds) think a player is worth not how much we are asked.
He seems to get luck with his fumbles this boyaka chap from the video. After da Costa you can't take them seriously just wait and see if he's alright I guess
This defo looks like a cellino signing
Clockwork - what do you mean he looks like a Cellino signing?
It's true YouTube only shows the best bits of a player but he doesn't look clumsy, he looks pretty quick and strong to me.
Looks like he's a right winger so not good news for Byram.
He's worth whatever we're willing to pay.
What we see on his YouTube clip is not CGI, he did those things in a decent league. Whilst I would have loved Limbombe, I'll approach this signing with hope based on what we have done so far this window.
"This deffo looks like a Cellino signing". I bet if we signed him,and he turned out to be a world beater,Cellino would have had nothing to do with it.
Why is the wood price slowly creeping up.
First we people said we paid a million
Then it was two
Now he is doing well people saying it's three.
Didn't wolves have a bid accepted at the same time as us for a million.
Yet we paid three?
Well if that's the case then cellino over paid.
Hope hes not a duck man habibou
We made the Pakistan Tribune so it must be true.

Stoopo, they got the starting line up against Bristol City completely wrong the other night, id ignore them
Wood was worth £3m for that goal alone.

Interesting comment here
"I'm going to Leeds, and will arrange the final details," said Botaka. "It was a difficult decision, but actually it is not. I'm at Excelsior enjoying myself and I am grateful to the club that I got my chance here. But it's a dream to play in England."
"[The deal] has gone quite fast in the last day. The interest was there for some time, I knew about it, but it was never really concrete. Until last Thursday. It was suddenly a madhouse, many phone calls and mailing with my agent and consulting with my family,"

Just thought that bit needed reiterating
Why don't we simply offer £5m for Antonio at Forest

We showed interest early doors apparently, and it looks like he wants to go....?
Seems an ideal buy to me.
5 mil for Antonio or 500k for Val le Parra who can also play at this level, easy one really. Not that I don't rate Antonio, but 4.5 million cheaper option going. How much is Boutaka costing?? not actually seen a price

I'd prefer Adomah to both of them but can see him more likely moving to the Prem.
Antonio to West Ham for £7m ?
