Tyrese Noubissie looks set to eclipse former Hibs, Livingston and Dundee dad Patrick after his big move.
A Scots teen sensation – whose dad played for Hibs – has completed a £1million switch to Man City despite being just 14 years old.
Tyrese Noubissie is the son of former Hibees French midfielder Patrick, who plied his trade at Easter Road between 2007 and 2008, spent most of his time out on loan at Livingston and Dundee before heading to play in the Cypriot town of Ayia Napa. But Noubissie Junior looks set for bigger things after joining the English and European champions and a seven-figure deal.
He was born during dad's solo season in Scotland, making him eligible to pull on the dark blue, as well as for France, Cameroon and England. Unfortunately for Steve Clarke, the teenager's preference is to represent Les Bleus in the future, Having come through the academy ranks at Leicester City, where senior was part of the medical staff as a physio, Noubissie the younger had the likes of Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal and Aston Villa on his tail.
But it's Pep Guardiola's club who have won the race to land him. To do so, they've paid the Foxes £1million including bonuses. He will initially be part of the Citizen's Under 16 squad, with the plan being for him to sign a pro deal when he turns 17 and progress through the age groups all the way to the first team.
Noubissie confirmed the move on social media, posting: "Proud moment for me and my family. It is a privilege to become part of such an incredible club. Can’t wait to get started.”
