“Choose three, Lord.” The English “collected” a fairy-tale presentation of the transfer from the Poles [WIDEO]

Burnley signed Lyle Foster on Wednesday. The 22-year-old South African international signed a 4.5-year contract. The striker is rumored to cost £8m. The club came up with a very interesting way to present a new player.

Unusual presentation of the new Burnley player. “I’m happy to be here”

A recording of a scene from the popular “Shrek” appeared on the club’s social media, in which Lord Farquaad chooses his future wife from three candidates. This time he was faced with the choice of Burnley’s newest player. The first candidate was PSG player Leo Messi, the second was Cristiano Ronaldo, and the third was Foster. After the iconic words “Choose three, Lord”, the choice fell on the player from South Africa.

Internet users liked the idea of ​​presenting the new footballer. “This is the best transfer announcement I’ve ever seen,” wrote The Sun journalist Lloyd Canfield.

Interestingly, the activists of Zagłębie Lubin came up with the same idea earlier, as Kuba Szlendak reminded on Twitter. On January 9, the club from Ekstraklasa announced the acquisition of Mateusz Grzybek via social media in exactly the same way. Grzybek was, of course, the third candidate, and the alternative choices were former Zagłębie players. The first candidate was Alan Czerwiński (Lech Poznań), and the second one was Jakub Tosik (reserves of ŁKS Łódź).

Foster joined the English league after a very good start to the season with KVC Westerlo. In 21 matches in the Belgian top league, he scored eight goals and recorded four assists. The 22-year-old does not hide his satisfaction with the challenge ahead. – I’m very happy to be here. I’m grateful for the chance and I’m just looking forward to my first game for the club. From the moment I heard that Burnley were interested in me, my heart and mind were only focused on this club. I’m so glad to be here now. It’s a dream come true for me,” he told the club’s media.
