Juve Stabia President Tips MBAKOGU For Serie A

Manniello Francis, President of Serie B club Juve Stabia, before the Italian Cup game against Fiorentina commented on the Nigeria super - kid Jerry Mbakogu, who is attracting interest from clubs in the Serie A.

He told Tuttomercatoweb.com: ''I am biased because I am crazy about him. However, truly, he has been explosive and is exceptional. Has a great potential in certain areas.

''Now co-owned with Padova and honestly I see him in Serie A. It would be another satisfaction after D'Ambrosio had been given to Torino, Cazzola to Atalanta and Sau at Cagliari.''

20 - year - old Mbakogu is being tracked by Torino, Chievo Verona and Palermo. He has made the back pages in Italy this season following a string of fine displays in the second - tier.
