News has been doing the rounds about our alleged interest. Don't really need a winger so take this rumour with a grain of salt.

Is he a winger though? I mean he might be playing in that position currently, but from what I've seen of him, he has all the skill to operate in midfield and be the creative influence we need.

Could be the next traore with more dribbling and little bit less power could be very good here.

Agree but neither did Adama before this season really. Could always turn it around and be a bulldozer like him.


Tbh I don't think either of those two have a place in a top top club but wouldn't be a terrible signing to work back towards top 4. Both will be overpriced now though.

↑ Makes sense.

Considering It'd be a domestic transfer his transfer fee would be inflated. Feel we should prioritise midfield before spending big on a winger.

Lots of potential, he will be very pricey though

This guy is excellent, can’t see us getting him though as he’ll cost too much.

Think Zaha is overrated and overpriced, this guy has much more potential.

Would be an exciting signing but would cost a lot and we have other positions that need strengthening first.
