Former Fulham manager Rene Meulensteen has lauded the Cottagers for signing Jean Michael Seri, calling it an ‘absolute steal.’
They Craven Cottage outfit beat off competitions from a number of top European clubs to secure the signature of the midfielder in July, although they had to cough out a club record €30 million.
Last season, the 27-year-old made 31 league appearances for French Ligue 1 side Nice scoring twice amid numerous dazzling displays.
Meulensteen, impressed with the quality of the former Pacos de Ferreira player, has compared him with former AC Milan midfielder and Cameroon coach Clarence Seedorf.
