    Sydney Van Hooijdonk is awaiting offers from the English Championship. Contacts have been made with Southampton, Watford and Sunderland. Udinese also tried to sign him in 2021. Asking price of €3m-€4m

    Yes, not surprised to see Celtic and Forest aren't among the interested teams! ;)

    I will believe it when I see it .... nothing so far has suggested we have any money to spend and imo we wont get him. Its the same script every window, we get linked with a or several good player(s), who appears to be what we need, suggests a strategy is in place to improve the team with better players to support the manager, we as fans get excited .... but low and behold we "miss out" and sign cheap alternatives who are nowhere near the level of the player(s) we "missed out on ..... I understand its a two way thing and the player may not choose to come, but this happens far to frequently at our club, where we are notoriously secretive in our dealings. I really hope im wrong and proved to just be a miserable git !!

    Lol at us spending anything over 50k on a player this summer. If we bring anyone else in it'll be a loan with an option that we won't be able to afford next summer.

    We'll be signing Dwight Yorkes son at this rate, sorry for pinching it IRB but it still makes me chuckle whenever one of these links comes up.

    In all clips I've seen watched of him he's seemed distinctly 'meh'. So, meh.

    Same profile as pretty much every other striker we've been linked with this summer.

    So the way I read this is that he gets on the end of about 3 aerial crosses per game (most likely from set pieces) and only touches the ball in the box about twice more per game. So basically a big strong stationary bloke, yes? I didn't think the Dutch made those. I thought they drowned you as a small child if you didn't have foot skills and mobility. Or at least made you go become a productive member of society, sticking fingers in dikes or something.
