Christian Nørgaard - Extends to June 2024 (+1yr option) (1 Viewer)

[Les Beeavinu]

Brentford announce signing of Danish midfielder Christian Nørgaard.

 

[Edmundo]

I guess his surname rhymes with Dalsgaard?

 

[Griffingreen]

Welcome to Brentførd

 

[North London Bee]

A massive sign of intent. Wow.

 

[swr22]

Description sounds like he'll suit the English game. I like the length of contract too.

 

[jlove]

Sky Italia report this at 4m€, which is the fee Fiorentina paid, so I guess that's an easy guess.

Whatever, welcome to the Club and welcome to London, Christian. I guess you are the first Thomas Frank signing...

 

[No_sting_Bee]

Spreading the fixed costs

 

[GlasgowBee]

Welcome and here's to some more fun

 

[wanderer paul]

Good stuff. Welcome to BFC.

 

[alexcavell]

I guess his surname rhymes with Dalsgaard?

Pronounced like Ner-gore (not Nor-gard)

 

[BlueJayBee]

Excellent! Welcome Christian.

 

[kevalutonbee]

Welcome aboard Christian.

You now have six weeks to work on your X factor audition/initiation song

 

[Isleworth_Bee]

Very exciting signing.

 

[Bigbee]

We will be the Danish international team within a couple of years

 

[TW3Bee]

Sounds a really exciting signing.

 

[Red Eric]

[Travel Tavern Bee]

Could jump straight into Mepham's old shirt.

 

[BlueJayBee]

Could jump straight into Mepham's old shirt.

He's a midfielder :scratch:

 

[Mr Tree]

Pronounced like Ner-gore (not Nor-gard)

and is Dalsgaard pronounced properly like "Dals-gore"?

 

[nick logan]

[TW3Bee]

He's a midfielder :scratch:

[WarrenBee]

Excellent news, welcome aboard.

 

[IDontBeeLieveIt]

A defensive midfielder. Hooray. Great start to the summer. Exactly what we needed most.
(along with a striker in case Magic is lurking)

 

[skabee 63]

Good luck Christian and welcome

 

[TheHairdresser]

Welkommen til west London Christian, du er nu en Bee!

 

[alexcavell]

and is Dalsgaard pronounced properly like "Dals-gore"?

Yep :thumbsup:

Whilst this seems potentially an excellent signing as he appears to have done very well at Brondy, does anyone have any idea why he only played 6 games in a full season at Fiorentiana? Was he perhaps injured for some/much of the season or perhaps his face didn't fit there(?).

Anyway, welcome to the club!

Injured then face didn't fit, think Fiorentina went through several head coach changes in the season just gone.

Fiorentina have had a poor season, I think Vincenzo Montella's has replaced the out-going coach who presumably had some hand in this signing last summer. Not sure why you would sign a player to fill a certain position(s) and then not use them. Find it hard to interpret it either way tbh.

Injured then face didn't fit, think Fiorentina went through several head coach changes in the season just gone.

Also played out off his natural position which didn’t help.

 

[Cham]

Signing players from Fiorentina on long term contracts... How far we have come.

 

[mhead bee]

I had never heard of him until a couple of days ago so another brilliant sign

 

[wibs]

only the second half surely

He was on the bench for all the games he didn't start, apart from a couple when he was injured. They seem to play 3-5-2 mainly, so maybe he was just a Plan B.

Will never be as exciting as £167,000 for Eddie May from Falkirk,

I know what you mean, because at the time he was an exciting signing.

 

[wibs]

and then he started playing

 

[Brentford_till_die]

Another interesting signing. Sounds promising.

Welcome Christian.

 

[Darren J]

Remember doing World XIs at school and for a couple of years Gabriel Batistuta of Fiorentina was your nailed on striker and a pipe dream for even the biggest clubs in England. Italian football has changed a bit but not

as much as Brentford have. Amazing stuff and nothing to not like about this signing

I've been waiting for the first "underwhelmed' of the close season.

 

[CRitch87]

A good sign that he is willing to work with Franks again

Thanks!

 

[jbee]

Welcome Christian! This is a statement of intent and determination to fix our shortcomings; more than £3.5m according to most sources is probably a record fee for us. Height, physicality but still trained the Brentford way having worked with Frank before. Exciting.

 

[Newport Pagnell Bee]

No S in Frank

 

[Nada Bee]

Unreal signing from Seria A. Seria A!!!

I'd imagine he is on a fair old whack wages wise? £10/15k...

 

[IDontBeeLieveIt]

No S in Frank

Still baffles me how often this gets repeated. He's our manager and only has five letters in his surname. It's not that complicated!

 

[hatfieldbee]

No S in Frank

...beat me to it! Only 1 Thomas!
