Just reading that we are linked with this 20 year old Serbian forward.Profile on transfermarket.co.UK if someone could add a link. Apologies if it's been mentioned before.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleksandar_Mitrović_(footballer) http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/aleksandar-mitrovic/profil/spieler/51152 Good CV. The sort of young Centre Forward we should be looking at as back-up to Gomis I reckon.
lol, seems like our kind of player. Apparently he took the keeper's shirt and had to face a penalty after the keeper got sent off. (Didn't save it, but outfield players taking the Goalie's shirt is definately "the Swansea Way") His record at Anderlecht is a goal in every other game. That's fantastic. If we could pick him up, I'd be happy. In another thread, someone mentions Luc Castagnios. Haven't we been after him before? Again his current record stands up to the level we need from a striker for a team in the middle of the Premier League with plans to stay up and be safe before February.
He gets my vote, strikers with a good taste for hitting the back of the net is what we want, and 10 Million for the Anderlecht striker is about the right price for us with good margin for profit, get in there Huw..............
Meanwhile Anderlecht are ready to reject a Swansea bid to make Aleksandar Mitrovic an immediate replacement for Wilfried Bony. Bony’s £30million move to Manchester City is understood to have sparked interest from Swansea in Serbian striker Mitrovic. But sources at the Belgian club insist £15million-rated Mitrovic will not be sold this month, leaving Swansea to look elsewhere or wait until the summer. Mitrovic, 20, has scored 31 goals in 65 appearances for Anderlecht, including the 90th-minute equaliser in the 3-3 Champions League draw against Arsenal in November. Mitrovic, 20, has suggested his client will leave Anderlecht at the end of the season, with AC Milan touted as one possible destination. “It would be difficult for him to leave Anderlecht in January, but he’ll probably move in June,” said Nenad Jestrovic, who represents Mitrovic. “He’s ready for a big club, he’ll prove it. “I think he’s the best young striker on the market at the moment. Milan would be a nice club for Mitrovic to join, they’re still a massive club. “I’ve heard about Milan’s interest, but they haven’t contacted me. They have my phone number. Whoever wants the player will have to talk to me. “We hope he can go to a big club, he has to continue to train and be professional.”
We will recruit some players soon i have no doubt but until i see them paraded on the EP or the news then im going to ignore any gossip however valid it seems as there is too many conflicting stories. One bit of news that is fact though is at last Rory Donnelly is to play for Tranmere for the rest of the season.
Rory Donnelly to Tranmere,well,let's hope he stays there a bit longer than he did at Coventry. He must be entering the last chance saloon now.
Yes He must give it his best shot this time and if he makes his mark i hope we sell him to them as i cant see him ever making the grade to premiership level as he would have done it by now. Good luck to the lad..
Not being able to get into the villa side dont mean a thing and should never be a reason to discount any player who is not playing for one reason or another. It's obvious that we know a lot about him and value him enough to try and get him.
