Player Analysis: Glen Kamara

It's Christmas 2019, and a man walks into a bar and opens his briefcase. He tells everyone in that bar that he has £50,000 to spend and wants to purchase something then and there. Every man and woman in the bar approaches him with an idea; however, only a few stick out to the savvy investor.

The man takes time to contemplate over four proposals, one being 13.1 Bitcoin, another being 35 dairy cows, the third being 33.3 shares in Amazon and the last but most intriguing: a Finish midfield maestro who is soon to be out of contract. The man quickly turns down the cows and the footballer as he wants something easily liquidable and an asset that won't fall in peril to physical ailment.

The man looks back on this night with fondness as he chose to split his investments into amazon and bitcoin, which have returned profits of 2x and 6.5x, an impressive addition to his portfolio. Despite this, the man is dumbfounded when he realises this missed opportunity that laid in his path. It was not that the cows on offer were purebred Wagyu.

Instead, the footballer was Glen Kamara, who, if rumours are to be believed, might fetch upwards of a 200x profit this summer for the brave investors who took a chance, Rangers FC. Though I doubt Rangers signed Kamara whilst at a pub night investing session, the breakdown of the deal sounds an awful lot like your typical online investment scam, where promises of endless profit and high-quality products are made, but once the initial investment is delivered, radio silence.
