Not to be it seems.
Part of plan b is hopefully Velasco - who may well be better in time but is 5 years younger. Not really one for next season though.
Let's move fast onto the next target. We don't want this striker search dragging on to the end of the window.
It wouldn't.
Just an indication.
Quite commonly we tend to move out a player a day or 2 before a new one in a similar position arrives.
It is noticeable and more than coincidence.
4 strikers next season :
Gonzalez, Maupay, Welbeck / Zeqiri, Andone.
A lot depends on what happens with Andone...?
Connolly to go out on loan, and we have to wonder if there is any further chance for 22 year old Jan Mlakar. Gyökeres will surely move on. Longman may be off as well with...
Spending the Bissouma money I think.
Clearly a good move to mitigate fan disappointment at Bissouma leaving by spending the money on a much needed striker.
Well done albion ( assuming this happens ).
