Quah Jingle
Christmas came early for Grilled Birds as they unearthed a rare find - preternaturally deft midfielder
Quah Han Kok. The seventeen year-old bowled youth coaches over with an unnerving display of pace and power in Grilled's latest trials, which left scouts wondering at how he eluded the net for so long.
"Quah is simply the top prospect Grilled has found since
Au-Yong Siu-Yue came through four seasons ago," midfield specialist Tan Wock Thong gushed. "Indeed, he has few peers in his age-group for sheer all-roundedness. Don't be surprised if he knocks on the doors of the U-20 squad in time to come." When pressed, Tan valued Quah in excess of S$4 million.
Quah himself threw a dampener when he announced that he would be keeping his options open. Clearly not underestimating his own abilities, the school player hinted that he might ask for a move if he does not get a coveted wing spot, and soon. "My future is out wide, I don't like the middle much. It cramps my style," Quah said with youthful self-confidence. "Dai-Lin and Aznan are super at what they do, but it's no secret I have an eye on them."
