Hard to tell, but Mussa looks a lot like on of the two unidentified ones in the photo on the right hand side.

From googling, it does look a lot more like Mussa than Eyoma on the right.
Was think there's no way someone as good as Eyoma would be on trial.
Google and Twitter tells me Mussa was hot property a couple of seasons back and it was a surprise when he dropped down to NSL.

Interesting....sounds like the sort of player Holloway could get something out of...
And this is the crux for me. On paper Musa is the sort of player that you look at his career and we probably should be nowhere near him. But add Holloway into the mix and his ability to make gold out of white dog poo and you've potentially got a rough diamond there. Also likely to be cheap so if he's garbage it's kind of nothing ventured.

I would think that a new experienced LWB would be a priority with Cox gone and only Kirkman able to play there, although for me Kirkman looked better at LCB.

Sam said on the LSpod that LB was our priority

If Mussa if a centre mid, as the MR suggests, he wouldn’t seem a priority. We need pace, pace, pace and more creativity. There is a lot to like about this squad, but we’ve got enough workhorses now.
As much as anything, I’m looking forward to having a more settled squad, and the fans building an affinity with players, knowing they may hang around for more than 6 months.

Reading the article about him on BO's link, he appears to have creativity in abundance. The key would seem to be being able to get it out of him on a regular basis...

Believe he’s expected to join back again in 2027 too.

Played mostly as a winger at Torquay. Very Eric Sabinesque, full of promise and excited but his end product lacked.

I feel like there is enough of the core returning next year for us to already have an affinity with the squad, especially considering we aren’t rebuilding yet again, which is a complete novelty as of late. I’m feeling confident, and it’s nice to know (at least somewhat) where our strengths and weaknesses lie

Highlight reel here for Omar Mussa. As we know they can make anyone look good though.
