Scout recalls how he put his job on the line to sign Zadok
The scout who discovered new sensation Zadok Yohanna has revealed how he practically put his job on the line for Swedish club AIK to sign the youngster.
The scout, Herish Sadi, recalled: “I was really impressed when I watched him play as a number 10 and on the wing.
“There were a lot of scouts there, and we had to move fast.
“I called AIK’s CEO and said; How would a hundred million Krona (10 million Euros) feel? You need to close this deal right away.
“If he doesn’t turn out well, fire me. Fire me without compensation, I said.
“I negotiated with the president and managers there. I actually closed the deal that same evening, and he officially became an AIK player.”
