Never heard of him but he does look pretty interesting after a bit of digging.

6'1" so quite a unit for a winger. Looks quick and strong from youtube clips. Ok pedigree too, 24 CL games with 8 direct goal involvements. Impressive numbers in the Austrian Bundesliga (welder's league, granted). 42 direct goal involvements in 71 appearances. The numbers seem to have dried up a fair bit in Italy which is the concern but he's still relatively young. Turned 25 this summer (only a year older than Ramazani).

I guess like most of the wingers we've been linked with, potential is there but he's a risk. Would prefer the Argie.

The loan market potentially opens up more at the back end of the window.
I'd take Solomon on a loan only as I'm not entirely convinced by him.
El Chapo may well be a waiting game to avoid overpaying.

If the value isn't there then we're under no obligation to spend our entire budget whatever that may be.

Piroe was always going to be first choice for me.
If we get the service to him then quite simply he will score goals all day long.

Agree he'll score if we create chances for him, and we are going to need to take our chances this season. His overall game has improved too imo. Deserves a shot.

I dont think Piroe was always going to be first choice though. I doubt we were bidding big bucks for Muniz to come play second fiddle to Piroe.

He was first choice at all times for me.

Is he fit or injured?
