Welcome Nicklas. You're at a fine football club.

He's not signed yet , we have to agree terms and have a medical first - although i would hope that will be straightforward - I'm sure Kent Nielsen will have told him all about the club.

Also he's 6 foot 5 and has been capped for Denmark. Valued at just over £1 million.

Cover for Benteke, anyone?

yes for sure, and we cannot rest on our laurels and expect him to do it again. Benteke is 22 and needs to be challenged and rested in what is a massive year for him. We cannot expect him to play every game next season and he'll also want to be somewhat fresh for the WC in the summer. If this lad ends up being a replacement for Benteke he'll need to be very good indeed.

Going by that video, he certainly has quick feet and I can understand the comparison to Ibrahomivic but he would he have some way to go before he could be put in that class.

Odd that the club would announce that we're in discussions with someone, it's not really their way.

They had too because his team announced it on their website.

I wonder if fans of every club are this negative? It is possible to bolster the squad without selling everyone already at the club.

That explains that then. I went to the OS before coming here so it just looked odd.

it's the same people who complain that our squad is too thin and complain about the quality of the bench on the match thread

Does anybody think this may be a sign that Benteke is leaving?
Replacement for departing Benteke?
Nay nay thrice nay! Ok twice anyway.

He must be knocking on a bit. Judging by his name he appears to have been born in Ancient Rome.

Too late CD, I already did a gladiator joke on the transfer thread.
