Genoa striker close to £30m move to AC Milan: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/46976744

"Piatek, 23, has scored 19 goals in 21 games since joining Genoa for 4m euros from Cracovia in July."

?
Piatek is quality, I really wanted us to get him. Very under the radar type signing, much like Arsenal with Torreia. Will do very well with proper support around him. Milan are making some excellent signings Paqueta already looks seriously good.

Ha ha. A link just a link makes a club more active than us ? Have you forgotten our links to players this window or doesn’t that suit your narrative ?

Is he that good though, hasn't he had quite a rough time at Monaco?
He was made captain by Henry and it's fair to say he took up the roll well. Monaco have been shocking this season, and Yuri had been hit and miss. But over recent weeks it's fair to say he has been good. Got a few goals/assists. He's quite slow but he's strong on the ball and moves it around well. I had written him off to be honest, but recent showings suggest he could actually make good on his potential. Certainly one to keep an eye on I feel.

The trouble is once a PL team is in for a player the price skyrockets so we wouldn't have got him for the same price as that I don't think
I disagree. They made 31 million profit on him in 6 months. I reckon the price might have gone up to 40 million euros, but that's it.

Mike Ashley has made a signing for fucks sake. The bloke's so allergic to investing in Newcastle he's protested against every match. Jesus christ, Spurs.

Being fair, its been mooted since before the MLS final that they were signing Almiron.

Reminds me of when Torino wanted 100mil for Belotti when he was on a similar run 2 years ago. Followed up that season with 10 goals in the league. Be wary of the flash in the pan!
Yeah, but Belotti was shit to anyone with eyes. First saw him in the Under21 WC that Kane went to. Bernadeschi was the player from that team. Belotti has no technical ability, just a tenacious bull...and one that breaks down. Was so hoping ManU or Chelsea bit on that one.

Good player, but very one footed.

Piatek just scored a great goal for his second of the game vs. Napoli.

You watching Serie A instead of PL or just doing a quick scouting look?
They had a free stream on youtube so I put it on the background of my laptop at work. We just moved offices to an open office concept so getting hard to watch these weekday games.

Besides, we couldn't afford to buy a player from Napoli or AC Milan.
