ARTICLE: Burnley sign young French midfielder on loan

[PWBFC]

According to a couple of French websites, we've signed him permanently. Not sure how to add a link but I've attempted to here. https://www.ouest-france.fr/sport/footb ... ey-7110725

It was always a loan signing with a view to it being made permanent so if he's impressed it would not be a surprise that we've done it.

That report states that he appeared on out first team score sheet. If he did, I haven't seen it.

If we have signed him, it's a surprise it's not on the BFC webpage yet.

He’s been on the bench a couple of times. When we first moved to nine subs this season.

[Culmclaret]

I think the ‘feuille de match’ is the starting XI plus subs in this instance

Thanks PWBFC.

Sacre bleu (bleu is French for blue)

Baptiste Santamaria cost about £10 million when he went to SC Freiburg. 9 appearances so far, just waiting for a scouting report from my friend at SCF. 25 years old, 6 feet tall, midfielder, not aware if he is left or right footed.

The report suggested he'd scored.

Lost in translation I think.

[IanMcL]

You don't have a clue what his main role is, none of us do.

Anyone described thus is clearly Court Jester.

Hasn't he scored for the under 23's in the PL under 23 league thats probably what they mean

Don't know Boss but there's nothing on the BFC webpage yet about a permanent signing.

[MT03ALG]

Santamaria has started well in Freiburg. Holding midfield player (number 6), works hard with 1 goal and 2 assists so far, right-footed.

Scored in the home win against Reading

Scored in the home win against Reading

Thought so ....

[Bosscat]

Is it Henrys son?

If he starts humming "Moon River" or "Durham Durham Durham Durham Durham" (Pink Panther theme" we may find out

[claretandy]

18 month contract.

The report suggested he'd scored.

Lost in translation I think.

Yes, Google Translate has had a 'mare here as a pundit might say. It only says that he made the matchday squad, not that he scored.

Hmmmm I'm not sure now.

I'll need to ask somebody.

Sports language is full of idiomatic phrases and although I understand all the words I'm not entirely sure what they mean.

"Avant de faire une apparition sur la feuille de match en Premier League il y a quelques jours."

This translates literally as something along the lines of...

"Before he made an appearance on the match sheet a few days ago in the Premier League."

[Spike]

Seems it is Gomez he has on his shirt not Mancini

Hope is more robust than that injury prone Gomez from the team we thrashed last week

[Gordaleman]

This is the Google translation.

But, demoted to reserve this summer, he was finally loaned for the season to English club Burnley (Premier League). First to play with the U23s. Before making an appearance on the Premier League scoresheet a few days ago.

Premier League SCORESHEET. As I said, it's probably lost in translation and should read TEAMSHEET.
