Armchair scout (Abroad)

Post by benstone12 » Thu Aug 20, 2020 11:41 am

Lots of players abroad who would fit into our budget. Always risk whether they would settle but, 1 of the below would make a great exciting signing. Does anyone have any other potential foreign players who might be within our reach who would add to the squad?

Centre Mid
Teji Savanier, Montpellier, 28 (much better than Baptiste Santamaria)
Suat Serdar, Schalke, 23
Mikel Moreno, Real Sociedad, 25
Erick Pulgar, Fiorentina, 26

Attacking Mid
Mounir Chouiar, Dijon, 21
Steven Berghuis, Feynoord, 28
Robin Quaison, Mainz, 26
Chimy Avila, Osasuna, 26
Gedson Guedes, Valencia, 23 (offloading most of their squad)
Jeremie Boga, Sassuolo, 23
Nikola Vlasic, CSKA, 22

Forwards
Jhon Cordoba, Koln, 24
Musa Barrow, Bolognia, 21
Vedat Muriqi, Fenerbache, 26
Umar Sidiq, Partizan Belgrade, 23

Mike Moreno who did nothing at newcastle and Nikola Vlasic who did nothing at Everton.

At least think these things through before posting

We don't traditionally sign players from abroad. No harm in looking and speculating though.

Mikel Moreno is a very good player who just finished LaLiga with some of the best ratings, pass completion, interceptions for central midfielders. He was never given a proper chance at Newcastle but did well when he played.

Prior to Everton, Vlasic was a highly promising international. He still is. He has re-discovered his form for CSKA both domestically and also in the UEFA cup this season.

Who would you suggest?
