Just a name I've been given, but not from anybody I've ever heard BHA stuff from before.

Apparently we missed out to Norwich for him earlier in the month, but they have now pulled the plug. Celta Vigo thinking it was a done deal have already signed a replacement and are therefore eager to off load. The fee is likely to be in the region of £1.5m

I might usually have taken it with a pinch of salt, however it does seem to tick most of the plausibility boxes for me (Norwich link; Argentinian so Ulloa link; within our price band; from a Spanish club; Striker). All except he appears to be the same style of player as Hemed.

Quick 'google' search only talks about Norwich and their alleged lack of 'professionalism'.

Anyway, I thought it worthy of passing on.

I love random rumours like this. It's what the off/pre-season should be all about IMO. Is there any reason why the person who told you this would know about it?

He presumably wants to come to England to find the answer to the biggest question in his life...

Oh god please let it be true.

Although with the mythical £1.5m cropping up again, I have my doubts.

He said he is a season ticket holder in 1901. Not that that's an indicator of honesty!! He talks fairly knowledgeably about the Albion. And, I don't think there's any reason for him to lie to me.

Almost 31 isn't that a bit old to be spunking £1.5m on a striker unless we are going for it this season?

Apart from that his stats look good on wiki, wonder why Norwich pulled out

Has he said he wants better than Brighton yet? It's only when they say that that we can start a 100 page thread.

Like most have never seen him play but with flair name like that I am on board. His agent isn't best pleased with Norwich, what was the issue there? Would he move to championship haven't been on the brink of premier?

Good looking, tall and a professional footballer earning lots of cash. That means one thing: amazingly hot WAG.

On this basis, I'm in.

£1.5m is nothing if he scores the goals to get us up.
