Better than Kamil Miazek? What's happened to Will Huffer?

Huffer is currently injured, not sure with what but he posted a pic of him getting a scan last week...If Casilla gets a ban then it's Meslier as the #1 and Miazek I guess as back up

Huffer and Miazek are only contracted to June I think

This is a good move all round though, adding quality is never a bad thing

Similar age to Meslier.

Was here at the same time.

One was used and one wasn't.

Caprile has developed well and is now the backup goalie at Napoli.

Wonder if he'd fancy a return.

Sure. Let's bin off Meslier for someone we really don't know anything about.

Misleading thread title though

Never saw him play when he was here. I'd bet with certainty that Cjay didn't either.

I meant from a club POV, they've had a good look. Saw him play for the 21's and thought he looked very promising, think I said he should start on match day threads a couple of times. Think he left before Farke arrived?

I did see him play for the youth team a bit (was on YouTube back then I think).

No idea how he's played as I've never seen him since but his reputation has massively grown.

Good enough for Napoli.
