Wenger trialist Mputu hailed as the new Eto'o. Watch him on video


By 1970’s Gooner

Tresor Mputu’s performances were so impressive for his club TP Mazembe and for his country DR Congo that a host of local and foreign clubs have been very keen to sign him.

The list includes Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns and also three Belgian teams as well as Bayern Munich.

Mputu, 21, has reportedly already had trials in France and Belgium.

This must have alerted Arsene Wenger who apparently has been tracking the African for some time. And move fast he had.

So fast that, as Mputu’s agent announced, the player is arriving in London to begin trials with Arsenal on Monday November 19th.

“There is a 70 percent chance that he could sign but Arsenal still want to look at him before making final arrangements,”

“He is one of the most talented players to come out of Africa in the past two years and his performance in the African Champions league is there for all to see, he told Kick Off Magazine.


The pint-sized but highly skilful forward currently tops the Caf Champions League goalscoring table with 11 goals to his name.

Mputu is expected to make his mark for DR Congo in the upcoming African Nations Cup and Wenger, a shrewd transfer dealer, would obviously like to get his man before he bursts on the scene and his value sky rockets.

His price is placed at the moment at £500,000 which is just about right for Wenger!

Former Congo coach Claude Le Roy described Mputu as better than Samuel Eto'o!

Le Roy famously picked Eto’o for Cameroon for the 1998FIFA World Cup in France as a 17 year-old. If he is right then Wenger has unearthed another gem.

As you can see from the videos we have assembled Tresor is a cool finisher in front of goal.

He is also blessed with pace and good technique which is of course a sine qua non for any player if he is to be given half a chance of making it through the London Colney doors.

He can also kick where it hurts!

Wenger rarely gets such signings wrong (apart from Palacios- now at Birmingham). This and other similar signings such as Nortveight shows that Wenger is thinking for the long long term maybe when he is still on the Board of Arsenakl FC!

The question is: do we need him? When RVP's injured Wenger doesn't play the kids accept in cups or as subs. We got Bendtner, Diarra and Diaby already starting to whine about it. Signing another non-English player (which in itself is a good thing) would add fuel to the "foreigners are taking over!" speculation. On the other hand, as the evolution theory suggests, the strongest and the brightest players will survive and prosper in an already good and talented squad.

And to continue your (sound)logic if he is not better than the existing forwards at some time in the future then sell him on at a sound profit!

So both player and Arsenal gain.

I just wanna know if he can 'put two' in!

May be he can put two feet in the door before he puts two in!

"(apart from Palacios- now at Birmingham)."

He's at Birmingham because Arsene knew he didn't make the grade at Arsenal, but could still be a good player for a lower Premiership club.

This is one of the best player in the entire world. Just remember that he is the world number 1 scorer in international games with 22 goals. Give him some respect. with arsenal or not, he is still one of the best in coming days.

To previous anonymous:
You obviously know this player well. You may have watched him play and know his history.
Can you write a small piece about him for Arsenal Analysis, how you see him fitting into this Arsenal team, which position would suit him best etc...and we will publish it on this site.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Yeah ! Mputu is coming from our RDCongo and he is a very good striker (TP Mazembe). But, obviously he is better than Eto'o (Claude Leroy who found Eto'o makes this remark) and more better than Adebayor ! Arsenal needs to have top scorer. Indeed Rosicky, Adebayor, Flamini, Van Persie, Fabregas, etc...are good players. But not enough than him ! Let's add that experience will grow when he will join the team !!! He is the cherry on the cake !!! Arsenal will not regret having this talented guy in this squad of my heart !!!! Go gunners !!!!

There’s gold in them boots (COLUMN)
Carlos Amato: The Far Post Published:Nov 15, 2007

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Sundowns perceived Mputu’s quality only when he skinned them in Pretoria




We must learn to spot talent north of the Limpopo


Transfer trading is not rocket surgery, to borrow a phrase from Jay Leno’s press-clipping segment. But it seems the PSL’s big three wouldn’t be able to tell a future superstar from a wildebeest in Adidas boots.




The latest evidence of the dwaal afflicting Sundowns, Chiefs and Pirates is the news that Tresor Mputu, the 21-year-old TP Mazembe striker, is off to Arsenal for trials. The kid is so brilliant he’ll surely get the nod. A transfer fee of more than R40-million is being mentioned.

That R40-million could have gone into South African pockets. At last year’s African Nations Cup, in Egypt, Mputu scored a goal for the DRC against Togo that conjured the words: “Je suis world class” in red neon letters above his head: he chipped the keeper with such nonchalance that he might as well have been flipping a fried egg.

At the same tournament, Mputu nearly reassigned the gender of Angola’s Kali with what can only be described as a prehistoric shibobo, hoofing his victim in the gonads, from behind, through his legs.

True to the Gauteng giants’ time- honoured scouting strategy, Sundowns perceived Mputu’s quality only when he skinned them in Pretoria in July. Downs won 3-2 in the end, but Mputu’s two strikes were goosepimple material.

Once again, he displayed the master finisher’s hallmark: he passed the ball into the net.

By then it was too late. Mputu had scored 11 times in the African Champions League, and Mazembe knew they could flog him straight to Europe for a sum way beyond the means of Downs or Pirates, who also inquired.

Arsene Wenger is one of the few super- club coaches ready to import players from sub-Saharan Africa; he guessed that Kolo Toure was world-class when he bought him from ASEC Mimosa, and he guessed right. From his first Premiership match, Toure was stupendous.

Players of his calibre, including Mputu, have super-stardom in their chromosomes. They don’t need to adjust to Europe — Europe needs to adjust to them.

These guys are quietly glittering all over Africa, ripe for lucrative interception by PSL clubs.

The key is to buy them cheaply before Europe spots them, and that requires effort, funding and a few Francophone scouts.

Local sides have done good African business in the past. Benjani Mwaruwari makes Jomo Sono prouder with every passing week.

And Galatasaray’s Shabani Nonda once prowled the grand arena of George Thabe stadium for Vaal Professionals, en route to Monaco and Roma.

But the jury is way out on Zambian Collins “The Tsunami” Mbesuma, whose dietary habits since his Chiefs heyday have made him more of a Portapool than a tidal wave.

Foreigners are marked men in the PSL these days, and there’s a case for cutting the current limit of five per club. But a quota of three must force our clubs to shop more astutely north of the Limpopo.

There’s gold up there. Time to go find it.
