Claims that Antef Tsoungui was a troublesome player at Brighton were “nonsense,” and the player is proving it at Feyenoord.
According to Kein Geloel, a Feyenoord podcast, as relayed by Voetbal Zone, the player has been praised today.
Tsoungui left Brighton on a free transfer earlier this year, joining the Dutch side and ending a five-year stint with the Seagulls.
He joined them in 2018 from Chelsea‘s youth system, but despite Brighton’s determination to keep bringing youth players into the first team, he only made one first-team appearance.
Instead, he was loaned to Lommel SK in January of this year, returned from that loan in March, and was eventually released on a free transfer in July.
He is now on loan at FC Dordrecht, where he has established himself as a key player in the Keuken Kampioen Divisie with 11 appearances, a goal, and an assist.
That has not gone unnoticed by Feyenoord, who appear to be very excited about the 20-year-old’s future and remain unconvinced by rumors that have followed him since his time at Brighton.
“Could we please stop talking about him so much? Otherwise, we’ll lose him soon!” they predicted.
“He has the power to change things. He was labeled as a difficult boy at Brighton. That’s always struck me as a nonsense label. What makes it difficult? I like boys who have their own thoughts, isn’t that nice?
“I’m afraid if he keeps saying this, we’ll lose him during the winter break.” Either to Feyenoord or to another club in the Eredivisie.”
