Orlando Pirates striker Lyle Foster has been linked with a move to French giants AS Monaco. But what do the fans think of the potential deal?
Foster went on trial with Monaco in November last year, and will now return to the club as he is set to undergo more assessments with a potential move on the cards.
The 17-year-old is the second South African to have been linked with Monaco in the current transfer window, with Bongani Zungu also said to have been eyed as a replacement for Fabinho, who signed for Liverpool not too long ago.
Fans have had their say about the news on social media, with many hoping the attacker does well enough to secure a move abroad.
Here's what some fans think of Foster's potential move to Monaco:
Lyle Foster ?????? the writing was on the wall last season that he would never truly play for us...good luck to him

Welcome !
Lyle Foster doesn't actually play for us, either his injured or on trials somewhere in Europe.

Do you think Foster has what it takes to make it in France's Ligue 1?
