Attacking midfielder Gastón Ramírez is being heavily linked to us.
Sounds realistic as well. Why?
- Cheap. His contract is up in the summer = either a cheap deal now or a 5 month loan with the possibility of signing him on a free this summer.
- Pedigree.....he is a 25 year old Uruguay international who had his pick of clubs before joining Southampton for £12m
- Serie A experience with Bologna....So is known to Frank and probably speaks a smattering of Italian
- Fits our long standing criteria of signing hungry players with something to prove (having flopped in the Prem with Southampton you'd imagine this was the case)
He was on the verge of a return to Serie A this summer when Middlesboro started talking to him. We are rumored to have gatecrashed these talks.
Thoughts?
We're lacking in the creativity department atm so I think this would be a good signing.
