As a cheap alternative to Rodriguez (until he joins in Jan ;-)? Depth option. If he succeeds, then one of the older strikers moves on next summer? If he fails, he goes?

Yeah he could come good, he was really fast and more than capable of playing the wide striker role as well as central, but that was pre a number of injuries. The problem was even then he wasn't scoring many goals but I see he had a decent tally in Serie B last season and didn't miss too many games which though in a lower division does suggest maybe he's over his injuries and is finally finding the net

He could prove a great gamble, but price and what options there might be in a similar price range are the things to consider

I have to say I was hoping maybe we'd try for Luis Muriel this summer, but he had an injury that meant he missed a lot of playing time last season and seemed to struggle when he returned
