But he's 24, good size for the prem and comes highly recommended so bring it on (don't think we will finalise it though)
Only worry....is why would a first team CB playing for a champions league team who came 2nd in their league last year join us....other than money
A clutch of players in that price bracket have been linked and we have supposedly put in “offers” for.
However even if the player bizarrely is happy to join, the offer will still always be 10% down with the promise of the rest in instalments (and we know what our track record is on that front). That metric is not going to change between now and Monday
May aswell therefore just get Dawson in and settled quickly.
Bids for Lacazette, Batshuyai, Gomez and Bacca, but don't think we ever had a bid accepted for any of them (maybe for Bats?)
So we ended with Zaza who wasn't good enough and was a massive flop
We quite clearly have primary targets, but we don't have the funds to get them and end up panicking ....dunno why we don't try making our primary targets ones we could feasibly afford so we don't waste 2 months and then panic last minute
But I do know the answer...because the board are incompetent
Must get in a CB & must be the best we can get (not Dawson).
So here we are; two days of the window left and still no closer to getting a CB which was, don't forget, Moyes’s priority target in June. Once again, we've wasted time chasing a player whose valuation we never had any intention of meeting, and now we're scratching around for a defender that we should have had lined up months ago.
We all know how this ends, so what happens next should be no surprise to anyone. We'll bring in an out-of-favour player, more than likely a Will Salthouse client, probably from a relegated team for £5m-£8m.
