And he has 95 caps for Nigeria. He’ll be wanting at least 50k a week to come to Wednesday Wow that would be crazy wages for a club in our position to pay. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Manwë 2,544 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 £17m a few years ago, to a free agent from the Saudi league now. A real bargain. Link to post Share on other sites
Sefton owl 1,361 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Moved to Leicester for over £15 million a few years back... Hopefully his wages aren’t too high. Then again, we certainly aren’t in a position to be picky. If we really want to start scoring goals and climb the table, we will have invest a bit, be it transfer fees or wages.

OriginalAlien 157 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 If his wage demands are too high he won't be heading to S6. If he wants to play football and get himself noticed again, we could be right for him, but his agent needs to realise what world football outside the Prem is currently operating in.

wmb 255 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 100 times better than anything we have which is admittedly not much! Seems like TP has tried for him previously so must see how he can effectively use him. Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 5,404 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Without stating the bleeding obvious we need a goalscorer. This lad might give us something a little different to what we already have. I suspect a contract until the end of the season wouldn’t represent too much of a risk? Plus I don’t think Marriott’s coming back? Link to post Share on other sites

Bannofan 4,227 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 I don't suppose they want to swap him for one of the Championships best goal poachers and nicest guy in football do they? 1 Link to post Share on other sites

S72 Owl 1,754 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Was very highly rated when Leicester signed him. Not a natural finisher but fast and direct. The type of forward we’ve needed for a while. Link to post Share on other sites

I just don’t see a 28 year old who’s gone for £20 million and has scored in world cups dropping into a championship relegation battle unless there’s some really big money offered. He was reportedly on 60k a week in Saudi Arabia and you’d think there’d still be a bit of interest in him around Europe 2 Link to post Share on other sites
sMacLean 1,646 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Supposedly been offered to West Ham and Newcastle although probably more out of agent's hope than anything. Isn't Prem standard but should be at a very high Championship level. Just hope his fitness is ok as doubt the Saudi league is very stressful. Link to post Share on other sites

Fox1884 24 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 He is very very quick Can be an absolute donkey with the ball though, as in he will just run it out of play or he will hit a shot/cross that you would see in sunday league level We were very shocked when we got quite a bit of the money back that we spent on him Link to post Share on other sites
