Cisse clinches switch to Reading

Cisse has spent the last two seasons with Boavista
Reading have completed the signing of midfielder Kalifa Cisse from Boavista.
The 22-year-old Frenchman, who has spent the last two seasons with the Portuguese side, becomes Steve Coppell's first signing of the summer.

Royals director of football Nicky Hammond said of the £1m signing: "Kalifa is a 6ft 2in central midfielder who has also played in defence.

"He has real athletic ability and the technical attributes that should be well-suited to the Premiership."

The words "Kalifa" and "Cisse" both make me think of the same thing: Iznogoud.

This is because of a little-known part of Portuguese law that states:

With Djibbers going in part-ex for Simao they had to act quickly, so offloaded him to Reading.
