Nigerian attacker playing in Serie B. Bayat client potentially? https://twitter.com/VoicesOfTheVic/status/1747348839084753138
He's listed as having Patrick Bastianelli as his agent, an agent Watford have 'officially' only used once before (since 2015). That was the transfer of Odion Ighalo to Changchun Yatai where the club used 4 agents - Oladele Oladipo Salami, Patrick Bastianelli, Atta Aneke & Malzum Ali Bilecan. Strangely, Ighalo has zero agents listed as representing him on that transfer so it's probable at least one of those, Oladele Oladipo Salami, was his intermediary as he was Ighalo's agent in previous deals with Watford.
Seen him play a few times in Italy, can play as a striker or a winger, is a good dribbler + knows where the goal is. Likes a long-shot. Bit like a more physical version of Martins (although Martins hasn't been that much of a dribbler for us yet). Quite like this if the fee is right.
When will we learn? Nigerians are s h i t Hey Pozzo, you know who aren't s h i t? ITALIANS. SIGN YOUR FELLOW COUNTRYMEN YOU BUBBLE PERMED WHOPPER
You're telling me there is a Nigerian wide forward with a patchy scoring record who has bounced around Serie A and Belgium but hasn't already signed for the Orns?! Gino and Mogi must be asleep at the wheel
He seems decent and as if he can play in all 3 forward positions. A good striker of the ball with both feet. He was Cremonense's second top scorer last season in Serie A with 7 goals in 2277 minutes. You can see some of them in the vid below (he's number 77). He was linked with Burnley and Besiktas in the summer, but it seems they received no bids near enough to their valuation for him. A bit concerning is that it seems he downed tools a bit once they were relegated and he's not been used by them much this season so far. If he's not been that motivated to play in Serie B, will he get excited enough about the Championship? That aside, he seems as if he'd be useful for us in case it happens.
Ighalo was one of WFC’s greatest successes. Won us promotion, set the Premier League alight for half a season, ensuring we stayed up and then politely departed for a gazzilion pounds. It doesn’t come much better in modern soccerball.
I'm a big supporter of your handsome Italian agenda usually, but Fabbrini was in no way a swoonsome hunk. More like a consumptive wisp.
1000 apologies, I've got him mixed up with the Angel Gabriele Angella. I've had a true shocker here. I'll resign from the forum if necessary.
You put your left leg in, Your left leg out, In, out, in, out and you shake it all about, You do the Okereke and you turn around, Thats whats its all about. Oh Oke,Okereke.....etc
85 pace on FIFA. By my calculation that makes him faster than all of the snails in our team combined.
