Transfer Rumours The post 2022 world cup winter window

This virtually confirms it won’t happen

 

Not convinced this is true but....

 

BTW, I'd have this guy over Dembele every day of the week.

 

Now this would be a signing. Pretty sure this bloke has been correct in the past on a couple of our signings

 

The interesting part of this is it says we met the release clause - which usually means paying the whole fee in one up front. Which is the part that makes me most skeptical to be fair

 

Hopefully the odour of Everton’s rankness will win over.

 

Confusingly, there appear to be two Portuguese footballers known as Vitinho, both 22 years old. One is a midfielder who plays for PSG, plus the one we’re after, who plays for Braga in the Portuguese Primeira Liga, and who is a forward described in Wikipedia thus:

“A complete striker with physical strength, which allows him to excel at protecting the ball and turning around to attack the goal, Oliveira also possesses speed with and without the ball, mobility and a good positional sense.”

Only 5 foot 10 though, so don’t expect another Rickie/Graziano.

 

I'd take both

 

He's 6ft

 

The striker is called Vitinha though

 

Ah, got it, thanks.

 

Southampton also forcefully enter contention for #Vitinha of #Braga as reported by Football Insider. The English club is ready to get closer to the assessment of the Portuguese, namely the 30M #SFC clause

 

I'll eat my head if we get a striker of any competence this window.

 

Quoted.

 

Vitinha for me, I'd be ecstatic in this.

 

Both



And loan out Adams to Everton with a bonus in his contract if he gets them relegated

 

We were linked in the summer too so it fits.

If he was on thr list with Gakpo and Ramos then there must be something special about him.

 

While I’d be happy, why have we waited until deadline day to get this done/push for strikers?

Pay the release clause at the start of January.
