There's been a lot of chat about Bernard recently.
I sadly can't see how we're gonna sign him, it looked like we were sniffing around but that's died a death recently, & I get the feeling we've finished our Brazilian business; other targets are European based now.
Plus obvious budgetary considerations. If we're buying a striker, another £15-20m purchase is unlikely and even then, they'd probably want more than that for him and it's just too much of a risk from our end and at a fee we'll not pay.
So yeah, this doesn't bring me any joy but that's where we're at IMO.
