Valued at 22million a couple of year ago. Played with Crystal Palace as recent as December 2022 before Ten Hag took him to Man U on loan.

 

Fair enough he was on the bench the whole time there but still, I like the sound of this one. 

 

 

Take it you never received the memo

Positives are it’s a free, he’s big and can come for crosses which is an underrated attribute for playing for us where a lot of goals the spl dross score are from set plays/crosses.

Has a howler in him and his distribution is shit. But then we aren’t hugely reliant on our gk passing with McGregor 

Decent enough and upgrade on what we have. But not expecting the level of a prime McGregor etc

Was hoping we might be looking in a few new markets rather than a lot of championship players

And aye Kouame from Fiorentina. He scored at the weekend.

They 2 though, as I say, haven't been named, they've been worked out by a process of elimination based on the info available. So may be wrong.

Hopefully not the boy kouame for 7 million his record is poor

On a side note. All the rumours have a bit of a Ross Wilson fingerprint over them still. 

I’m sure we were after Dowall when Warburton was in charge. 🙈

If the rumours are true that we are going for Kouame surely we’d be better going for Gyrokes or Piroe as they’ll be similar fees and have better goal scoring records.

Hearing some Colombian centre half as well Merillo or something. But him and that Kouame haven't been named, that's been worked out by process of elimination from the information that was available.

Apparently we are advertising for a Spanish interpreter on LinkedIn. That could tie in to Murillo and the Colombian.

Think it was Gerrard who was in charge when we were linked with him previously.

Gyrokes will go for at least twice the amount that Kouamé will.

Imo we'll be luck to have 5m max to spend unless we move on players that have underperformed or been injured for a season or longer. Likelier Beale has the salary money from those going ooc to play with than a decent transfer warchest.

I think expectations need managed for how we bring in 5 starters for that sort of money when we haven't got the guaranteed income from those unlikely sales.

According to a poster on Follow Follow, these are the 5 names we are after.

Butland
Dowall
Kouame
Murillo
Willock

If, as suggested, we are paying 7 million for Kouame, who will be 26 this year, then someone at club needs their head read.

Murillo - 31 year old in May.

Player trading model Etc etc

He's probably on a decent wedge and will want the same up here as he could easily get it sitting on a bench down south.

Comes across as really lazy scouting and under FFP wages are a factor in what our signing budget is moving forward.
