He’s not been prolific and out of favour at Millwall so expect this to be shot down but I really like Mihailo Ivanovic. Could see him suiting our style.

Zan Vipotnik from Swansea although he may attract interest from Premier League clubs.

Not really interested in that sort of massive overpay, especially after we've screwed up and lost stewart for free.

We get that you are annoyed about Ross Stewart but saying it countless times wont change it. If Dragan is serious about producing an exciting team that will get bums off seats and win promotion we need to be aiming at signing quality - doesn't mean we have to massively overpay.

Tall? Physical?

Kyle Hudlin.

Kyle Hudlin from Solihull Moors to Huddersfield: What do we know so far? Is it likely to happen?

Nice touch for a  big man. He's 6'9" and said to be the world's tallest footballer. Cyle and Kyle twin strikers, what's not to like 🙂

He was top quality last season, if the price is right I would happily take him

Agree and, as you say, he's not been prolific but Millwall were not big scorers and maybe he'd get more goals in our set up. One worth considering for sure and he's a Serb - come on Dragan, have a word.

How about that Brazilian striker from Goztepe - Juan or something like that I think it is?  Apparently he's only valued at £12-15M - they got him from somewhere for a real steal.  He's been banging them in.

Salech from Cardiff -but he might be expensive now - and there may be issues with Peretz being Israeli as Salech has a Palestinian background I think. Should have bought him instead of Downs.

Kaspar Hogh - or is he too highly rated for the Championship now?

Using the Serbian connection how about Jovan Milosevic from Werder Bremen?

Vipotnik, off the back of one stellar championship season would be a massive overpay.

Dragan can be as serious as he likes, he still needs to balance the books

So somehow you know his transfer cost if he does move? Do you have tonight's lottery numbers?

No just a reasonable assumption when talking about a 24 year old who scored 30 goals with a contract through to 2030.

Bit of a conflict in your descriptions of him perhaps even if both agree on his potential.

If you’re talking of Millwall strikers, Coburn looked pretty useful, and might have displaced Ivanovic towards the end of the season. 
 

Reading about them reports say Millwall  paid £2.8m and £5m. Goes to show there is some quality available in some markets. But not £5m+ on Damion Downs.

Jatta from Notts County looks a good finisher but it may be too much of a stretch in term of quality although the same was probably said for Ivan Toney (although he came from an established academy) As a back up he would be more competent than Downes

Could be looking at a couple of strikers if we don’t retain Stewart and manage to shift Brereton Diaz, Downs and Archer. Would have thought we’d be open to offers on all three of them 

Would have thought we’d be looking to push two of them (BBD and Downs) out of the door

Good shout.

I've heard he's good in tight spaces, explosive in the box, but can sometimes be a bit sloppy with his finishing.

God, some of the posters on here are so immature. I was being serious!

I doubt that he would come though...

Koki Ogawa from Nijmegen (NEC) is a very handy player. Watched them a lot this season, but we might struggle to prize him away as they had a brilliant season and managed to make the champions league. Maybe not prolific enough with 8 in 26, but his all round play has been superb and with good supply he could do a job with Larin.

Until we know what is going to happen with Stewart this thread seems premature.

Talk of a fee in the region of £12-15m in January and £15-20m now. Premier League teams allegedly interested along with clubs like Sporting.

Tomas Bobcek was linked to us at the tail end of the January window.

He looks good in his skills videos.

I’m still on this season 😅 i was referring to 24/25. Fair point about talent being about though - the American forward Derby signed looked much better than Downs!

Göztepe'nin Brezilyalı forveti Juan mıydı neydi acaba? Sanırım adı böyleydi. Piyasa değeri sadece 12-15 milyon sterlin civarındaymış, çok ucuza almışlar. Gol yağdırıyor.

Cardiff'ten Salech -ama şu an pahalı olabilir- ve Peretz'in İsrailli olması sorun yaratabilir çünkü Salech'in Filistinli bir geçmişi olduğunu düşünüyorum. Downs yerine onu almalıydık.

Kaspar Hogh - yoksa şu an Championship için fazla mı yüksek değerlendiriliyor?

Sırp bağlantısını kullanarak Werder Bremen'den Jovan Milosevic'e ne dersiniz?

Juan isn't suitable for a lone striker role; he'll probably transfer to Champions League team Lille for 20 million euros. You need strikers who are 1.85m tall or taller. If you have a budget of 20-25 million euros, I would try to get Álvaro Rodriguez; he's very similar to Romulo.

Seems he's valued at way less than 20-25m Euros.

He's done little to nothing when come on as a sub this season.

 

Yeah, he should have done much more  in the 3 championship games he played in, at an average of 10 minutes per game... ;)

Context mate. I didn't say he should have scored a goal!

But from what I saw (two in person), he wasn't involved in the game

 Maybe a bit harsh from me but a loan out could be best.

I'm happy to see him sign even if it's just for his cross cumshots...

Preferably out the window, surely?
