Bristol City have hit jackpot! Their 2019 signing of Han-Noah Massengo from Monaco has proved a great move. The 20-year-old youngster has been playing so well in the Championship that he’s already prompted Premier League scouts to watch his every move. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Han-Noah Massengo (@hnmassengo42) The youngster has been a member of Monaco’s youth team for three years without making a single appearance for the Ligue 1 club, but his progress and performances for the red and whites’ second string hadn’t gone unnoticed. Bristol City took a brave move and invested $8.8 million to secure the midfielder in 2019. It has proven to be a shrewd move for the Robins. Two and a half seasons and 77 Championship appearances later, scouts from Leicester City and Southampton are tracking the Frenchmen.According to a report from Football Insider, scouts from the two clubs have been in attendance to watch his performances and undoubtedly they would have been encouraged with his displays. Southampton scout Sam Stauton, formerly Head of Analysis at Bristol City, is a regular visitor at Ashton Gate and has received positive feedback from his peers in Bristol.In the house. 😎 pic.twitter.com/ceqJNpidTa— Bristol City FC (@BristolCity) February 13, 2022 Someone would surely be making an offer for Massengo at the end of the 2021/22 season. At that point, he will have just 12 months left on his contract so the Bristol club might be forced to cash in on the player who’s caught the eye at Ashton Gate.Manager Nigel Pearson is still hoping that Massengo could sign a contract extension with the Championship side, but it seems like only a matter of time before the bright lights of the English top division attract the skilful playmaker.Watford failed with an approach for Massengo last season while Bundesliga club Freiburg were allegedly prepared to spend up to $8 million on him in January – but no bids have been received from the Robins.EFL CHAMPIONSHIPTuesday22.45: (2.75) Millwall (2.95) QPR (2.85)22.45: (1.58) Sheffield Utd (4.10) Hull (6.75)2.45: (3.20) Cardiff (3.10) Coventry (2.40)Wednesday22.45: (2.55) Peterborough (3.25) Reading (2.80)***odds are subject to change
