Also, €7 million seems like a lot for us (and it is) but Westerlo signed him from Rijeka a few years ago for €5.5 million and his stock has risen in a tougher league. Still young too.

Sunderland were going to sign him on loan with an obligation-to-buy for €15 million in January if they got promoted. If that deal came off he’d be a €15 million Premier League player right now. Westerlo’s initial asking price this summer was €10 million. If it’s true, it’s a very good deal for us.

Sound logic this and refreshing to read over the know nowt dishwater dukes on Twitter,

Whether this actually happens or not - I'd be surprised at that sort of financial commitment, but if so, and as Kalman explains, a well considered investment.

He reminds me of Abel Hernández more than anything. Same height, similar build, left-footed, quick, agile, good dribbler and a good finisher. His work-rate is exceptional too. He can play as a lone striker, in a strike partnership or as a right-winger.

was going to say could explain pulling out of the Barry deal if this bloke can play out wide too?
 
Is this in addition to McBurnie? I’d rather him on a free then £7m on someone unproven, no matter how good he is

It was stated in the Q&A that we were currently looking at 2 strikers - A good one, and a very good one.

Whether we can afford 7m or not though seems dubious given the affordability issues over Barry.

I wonder if he’ll wear a dreadlocked wig too.
 
He looks decent on the youtube clips but having said that so did Nick Proschwitz.
If we manage to get McBurnie over the line these two could be the answer to our wishes.

These two would be the signings of our dreams old lad

Can we pull them off?

Well, that was a bit of a rant, prompted by a light-hearted comment about a bloke being able to do remote working!

I have no idea why he's in the Maldives, or who is paying him, or what the t&c's of his various contracts are. But regardless of all that I'm pretty sure if someone texted him some juicy gossip about City he'd act on it even though he's meant to be reviewing some hotel or other.

Personally I have no beef with Baz, I'm sure he does the best he can.
He's also a Travel Reporter for the Mirror (reach group)

welcome to Rangers, three weeks ago
Watching that I wouldn’t call him a striker, winger/provider definitely but not a striker for me. Mind the goal he scores 2 minutes in was such a good finish, he literally stroked the ball in, add to that he missed a Cpl of sitters lol, but all in all I liked what I saw.

He does look more like a winger in that video, although transfermarkd suggests he’s played a large majority of his games up front.

Not sure whether he plays in a 2 or just tends to roam about but he certainly looks a good player.
