Making all the right moves in all the right markets.

We're gonna be a force.
Henderson and Niakhate would be an excellent start. This lad on top of that would be mind-blowing, though I don't see this one happening. I'd be amazed if bigger clubs weren't sniffing around.

Blah blah another lad I’ve seen int he flesh and and he’s bloody good blah blah.

f*** that, he is. He’s a monster, pretty much a goal every other game striker. He’s frankly better than Union Berlin (with great respect to Die Eisernen).

I cannot even believe Forest could pull this off. If they could, well…

Do we have anyone who watches enough Bundes to give this guy a review not just based on stats? Stats are insane and fits the profile that we seem to talk about all the time haha.

Like most of us I’ve done a YouTube dive and I’m on the fence from a nonsense highlight vid POV. Seems to be a bit clumsy and heavy footed, but then a good finisher a d doesn’t seem to lose the ball easily. He seems in the Ameobi school of not looking natural on the ball but being effective (clearly a level above Sammy though).

Would love to hear a proper breakdown.

These recommendations are coming from Syrianos surely? Wasn't he an analysis in Germany?

Absolutely proving his worth if we can get a couple of these over the line.

Yes, I would imagine that Syrianos is leaning heavily on his time at a certain south-western german side to identify some of these lads as possible targets.

As I’ve said many times, there is some genuine talent in the Bundesliga.

I mentioned this chap in the transfer thread as a possible target. Release clause is excellent news, if we get him and he does well, he’ll double in value.

I’m very happy with the level we are aiming at this summer; feels like it’s the best quality of player we can get within reason.

Now to reel them in.

Would assume Cooper has likely worked with player at Liverpool, so would be well aware of his attributes, attitude, potential etc.. and followed his progess.
Think Cooper had actually left Liverpool a couple of seasons before Awoniyi joined, but they were probably aware of him years before they signed him.

If he has interest from elsewhere in the Premier League, it is probably from more established clubs (as I feared).

Unfortunately I don't think this one is going to happen, though I'd love to be proven wrong...

Essentially we’re all looking at the same 80-100 players though. Doesn’t mean they will bid, he might be fifth in West Ham’s list, but top of ours. If we move early, others might be dithering while they wait for news elsewhere.

I agree that if we are directly competing for a signature we will probably lose out, but I wouldn’t be too worried about interest.

The lad wants to come to England. If we pay his wage demands and tell him what he wants to hear and we are the only ones in the game at the minute, I’m sure he will sign.

Hopefully you're right. Feels like one deal that we will have to conclude quickly before others start to throw their hat in the ring for there to be any chance of this happening.

Will be such a huge signing if we can pull it off.
