[Albion] Julio Enciso - Paraguay’s new wonder kid (Signed 17/06/2022)

[schmunk]

I've heard from the future that City are keen following his 40-goal haul last season and we would be tempted to cash in for a fee of £7.1m.

But why would he want to move from the team which won the league to the team in second...?

Haven't heard any more about Danny Welbeck signing a new contract yet either, or have I missed it, was supposed to be ready to sign before the West Ham match.

It was confirmed - by the club - he’d agreed a new contract at the same time as the Gross contract announcement . Although they’ve not released details (2 years ? ) of it as yet

Any early rumours as to which big club will be buying him this time next year?

Newcastle, nailed on. Ashworth will be fully aware of all the detail from the last time we tried to sign him

Depends how well he does at Stoke, shirley? If they send him back in January he could be finished (or the new Billy Arce)................................

Mods are slow adding the SINGED to the title of this thread

Yes, I had to look on the club's page to find out it was for FOUR years.

 

[GT49er]

They’re sat on the decking at the Malmaison, same place as the earlier picture in the Marina was taken so I don’t think it’s a spoof. Very, very likely that’s where he’s staying as both the Albion and visiting clubs use it all the time

A bit odd that the club are allowing (if they’ve approved it) so much noise before the signing is public, but as [MENTION=2657]paulie[/MENTION] G says it’s colossal news in Paraguay - he’s their golden boy. Given we’ve now got Ecuador and Paraguay sewn up, suggest someone starts looking at Venezuela, Peru and Colombia for our next big wonderkid signing

Ahem ....... Steven Alzate.

 

[DavidinSouthampton]

Really excited by this.

Another player with the potential to be world class. He might well end up more Connolly than Cucu but his signature has given me hope after the loss of 1+ of our best players to Champions League teams.

He’s already got 5 caps at the age of 18, and scored 11 goals in 14 starts this season. I know it will be a (major?) step up to the Premier League, but….

Loan to Union for work permit, Shirley?

 

[GT49er]

Phew! It's on the club's website now, so I can breathe out at last!

Or perhaps neither deal is complete yet

Maybe

Or they just report on deals when they're actually done.

Could be

I would think they will announce both at the same time, so as to soften the blow, so to speak.

Nope

Haven't heard any more about Danny Welbeck signing a new contract yet either, or have I missed it, was supposed to be ready to sign before the West Ham match.

Dunno

Think they were forced into this

So do we need to loan him to get work permit or not

The report on the club website says he's joining up with the first team squad when they report back for pre-season training. That means the work permit is not an issue, he wouldn't be allowed to train with the club unless he had one. He may still go out on loan but it won't be for anything other than experience and game time.

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

is that the new or old kit, my eyes are so damn itchy today, damn hayfever, ignore me..
old kit

International caps maybe get him over the line ?

 

[Bodian]

Are we now a buying club?

 

[dazzer6666]

Ahem ....... Steven Alzate.

He's 23 and been with us for nearly 5 years.....hardly the next wonderkid.

 

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

International caps maybe get him over the line ?

It's possible but I am not sure that Paraguay's ranking is high enough for it to tip him over the line. It's likely he got close to the 15 points required and we applied for an exemption based on him being a promising youth player. Of course the international caps at such a young age would have gone a long way to convincing the FA to grant the exception.

 

[Springal]

Don’t under estimate Paul Barbers influence within the FA - few times we’ve managed to get work permits in place when not enough points
