Karlan Grant Huddersfield

Post by Conroysleftfoot » Mon Sep 28, 2020 12:56 pm

Just seen a report on SSN that West Brom are in discussions with Huddersfield to sign Karlan Grant for £18million. Never heard of him so looked him up. Has scored 23 goals in 56appearances for Udders after transfer from Charlton which isn't bad but £18million, you're having a laugh.

Considerably cheaper then Watkins from Brentford to Villa

Scored 4 in 13 for Huddersfield in prem which isn't a bad return considering how poor they were. I think he will be a decent player. Similar style to Andre Gray.

Wasn’t he signed in the January of the season Huddersfield were relegated from the premier league, I seem to remember him not making a significant impact in their relegation fight

£18m for the pair of them seems reasonable.

You've never heard of him yet you know more about his value than the huddersfield scouting network and the people forking out 18 million. Some posters are really just cringe

Surprised Aston Villa or Leeds haven't bid for him as they seem to be linked to so many players

Former club of James Rodriguez let him leave on a free in order to get his reported £140k a week off the wage bill and the player himself was willing to take a wage cut to rejoin his former boss at Everton.

Slightly different situation to Karlan Grant.

Was £12 million reported anyway, no idea where the free comes from anything but with the wages on top.

Apart from both 6ft & over, both dark skinned, both played lower league football prior including youth & both born in London (different boroughs) both played in same position, the boroughs are both even south london, but apart from that absolutely no difference :roll:
