    Colombian striker currently topping the Belgian Pro League scoring charts with Club Brugge.

    Rumoured to be joining us on loan until the end of the season.

    Source: just tweeted by a bloke off twitter.

    Anyone heard owt?

    Cue inevitable response about it being easy for him to reach Hull by ferry from Zeebrugge.

    I think I saw his name on a thread the other day. Not sure we want another unknown coming in from abroad, we need someone to hit the ground running and not take the risk that so far hasn't paid off with prossie.

    Never heard of the guy, but a good goal scoring record, but why on earth would they loan out their top scorer? :huh:
    Can't see it happen.

    covered on the Danny Graham thread, with the guy who raised it being subject to much derision! Basically the sentiments being, why we he leave brugge to come play for Hull on loan, and why would Brugge let him go out on loan

    Knew I'd seen it, as you say though it's doubtful at best. I'd prefer Frazier or Graham for their record at this level still

    His goal scoring record is decent but again he might take time to settle although might be cheaper than Danny graham

    110 goals in 201 games, although half of them in the Ecuadorian/Venezuelian (Well that's hard to spell) second league.

    I'd like him, but only if we get another proven English striker!

    He looks in a similar mould to Aluko

    Actually you are on the thread that was the 2nd to mention it as this thread was not the first. I actually was on football rumours at the same time and watched it happen. so think again.

    We were talking about something and I went there to see if it was also on the site. Then someone mentioned this Bacca guy and we were talking about him. When I refreshed the site it appeared so it was most likely the same person.

    Clearly not. If I was going to make up a rumor it would have to be an mls player as I dont get the other leagues on tv.
