‘What a baller he is’ – Ba would love to play with Newcastle United’s Saint-Maximin

Istanbul Basaksehir striker Demba Ba was impressed with Allan Saint-Maximin’s display for Newcastle United against Liverpool and has revealed he would jump at the chance to play with the former France youth international.

In Saturday’s encounter between the Reds and the Magpies at Anfield, which ended in a 1-1 draw, Mohamed Salah had given the hosts a third-minute lead before substitute Joseph Willock ensured that the match ended on a no winner, no vanquished note.

Although Steve Bruce’s men have now played out nine draws in the 2020-21 campaign, the 24-year-old was one of the standout performers as he was a thorn in the flesh of Jurgen Klopp’s men.
