RUMOUR - Björn Bergmann Sigurdarson

by IcelandicStokie » 17 Apr 2012 17:54

"Representives from Reading where among the spectators to watch Björn Bergmann Sigurdarson when Lilleström played against Valerenga on sunday." According to the local paper in Lilleström today.

This would be a huge coup for Reading to sign this player, he is 21 yrs old and is being compared to Zlatan Ibrahimovic. He is unbelievably talented.

The new Zlatan:

http://www.vg.no/sport/fotball/norsk/ar ... d=10065096

His manager at Lilleström: "Zlatan controlled games with his strength and technique while he was in Sweden but didnt start scoring. Björn does exactly the same. No one could touch Zlatan when he was in Sweden and no one can touch Björn here in Norway. Björn can emulate Zlatan. He is absolutely the most talented and exiting player in Scandinavia. An absolutely fantastic player."

Last month AC Milan, Inter and Juventus wher all linked with a move for him in Italian media:

Looks quite good. But may need to work on his 1 on 1 finishing if I was to be critical.

Dubbed as one of Iceland's most talented youngsters, and the fastest player from Iceland, Björn Bergmann signed a 3-year contract with Lillestrøm SK in January 2009...A free transfer?

That contract expired over 3 months ago, so I guess he signed another........

Strong, quick, skillfull, intelligent. Could do with improving his finishing, but a big thumbs up from me.

Tall but skilful, seems a bit more like Van Persie with the way he was moving rather than Ibrahimovic though

I'm not saying yes on the basis of one clip from what looks like a five a side game in a sports hall.

I want video evidence of a goal scored via a bicycle kick and a stepover before I'm approving this one.
