Seems highly unlikely this one, but this bloke claims to be a journalist in Belgium...

Bjorn De Cock ‏@TheBelgPatriot
Hull City offered €8 million for Mbokani. Anderlecht wants €12 million. The striker only has a contract of one year left! #rsca

He scored 17 in 35 for Anderlecht last season, despite being out for two months injured and losing his son to a heart attack.
 
Dieumerci= thankyougod, what would you call him thank you, or god? I reckon de Cock has cocked this one up, can't see us paying £8 million for a random player like that
 
I've just checked and it seems he is leaving Anderlecht and has already turned down a move to Dynamo Kiev, as he wants to play in the Premier League.

It also looks like West Brom are after him.
 
Surely that's a made up name. I'm guessing you just closed your eyes and hit the keyboard in random order and that's what came out.
 
Belgium have close connections with the Congo. Lukaku is of Congolese descent, played for Anderlecht and moved to Chelsea (loan to WBA). Roughly 1 in 2 goal scoring ratio for Anderlecht, I guess we'd take him if Chelsea offered.

This bloke (Dieumerci Mbokani) has all the same antecedents being Congolese, playing for Anderlecht, and scoring at a rate of 1 in 2 for them.

Has to be worth at least looking at.
 
Some of my mates have banging on about him for a while, as apparently he is a "beast". Unfortunately, I think there will be better clubs than us who will be interested in him.
 
I wouldn't totally dismiss this one. If City have made an offer of around £7m there is room for negotiation on the stated asking price of £10m.
 
He's really good. Could have same impact as lukaku and benteke (not just because of they played in belgium) but because similar player.

But that's a lot of money.


Interesting link nevertheless. I think the belgium market is where it's at now!
 
Wouldn't we be better looking at Lukaku - he's apparently expressed a wish to go out on loan next season to bolster his international chances. West Brom are looking at Mbokani allegedly so may not be looking to get Lukaku back.

Just a thought
 
We'd all take Lukaku instantly I think.

But he's got two options imo. Go to a newly promoted club and stand out like mad and do well against the bigger teams or join a bigger team than west brom, someone like everton/arsenal to guarantee he stays in the overseas news.
Not convinced he'll be boosting his chances by joining us unfortunately, he'd then have to perform amazingly well.

I actually saw him at this hotel I was staying, nearly asked him to **** off out of west brom and come to city :D
