Player Watch Player Watch: Alejo Véliz

[ssamme]

That makes him sound like a square peg to me.

Do we have a square hole though?

 

[stevel]

odd to me that we’d insist on him coming now.

Maybe we want to loan him somewhere easier to manage. Like Spain where they speak the same lingo, are almost the same timezone and a short flight away if we need to interact with him or his manager

So we got this done in 24 hours

Conclusion: Rosario Central don't move goalposts...

Levy quick to get the deals fone when they are nice and cheap.
Excited to see him in action.

 

[Russ1201]

reminds me a bit of a young Aguero?

If he ends up even half as good as him i be very happy.

I know Frey Bentos is a town in Argentina and if you go on goole street view you can see the old factory where they made the pies. Hope that helps?

They still make the pies in those big tins - they only consist of gravy and crust- no meat.

I find the comparisons quite lazy just based on the fact just on the fact that he is Argentinian
I have never seen him play but after that 45 second YouTube video he reminds me more of a young batistuta

Yeah I suspect it’s because we want to be in control of his future, plus want to have a look at him in training first. Makes complete sense to me and the most likely course of events.

Kane replacement

Thought exactly the same thing!!

 

[HildoSpur]

This is class, love signings like this. Hard to find good strikers at the moment so this could be a great piece of business.

 

[Japhet]

Add him to the list of pretty impressive under 25s who've been recently recruited or brought through. VdV and Ashley Phillips next please.

 

[Silky Skills]

I thought Ange plays all five subs, so the bench will get more time than under Jose or Conte

 

[nedley]

This is interesting, checking it out now! Thanks

I know Gabbanini was at Watford, looks to be from 2015 - 2022.

During that time they signed:
- Joao Pedro from Fluminense bought for 9.9m pounds sold for 4x value
- Richarlison from Fluminese - sold for 4x value and bought for around 10.3m pounds

Seems to have struck gold twice there. This seems like a similar type deal.

Watford would be a good loan.

Possibly. It had already been posted twice so maybe that's why.

 

[Hotspur88]

Nope, has zero bearing on the Harry situation.

Hold this, an old source but potentially been some movement with Harry. Let me repeat, it's an old source but someone who was fairly accurate in the past.

just posted this is the Harry thread ….



He’s a goner - this is why we’ve had the movement, obvs the Bayern bad meeting was a smokescreen

 

[Pekoni]

Well I do warmly welcome our new South American striker dream team duo with Richy as the sensei and Alejo as his protégé.

Or, we set our terms, they’ve thought about it and they’ve offered what we want?

Not everything needs a tin hat.
