Willian José is a really good striker and definitely in the Mourinho mould.
I'd get behind this 100%
Have you seen him play? He looks poor on YouTube (don't shoot me only going by vids), is he actually decent?

If anyone has info please share regarding what he is like

Sounds like he is more of a target man who is good in the air and can hold up play. All things that we desperately need and fit Mourinho's style. Production is solid, but not spectacular mostly in a big league.

The general opinion of Real Sociedad fans on Twitter (using a bit of translation) seems to be he is bang average and they'll bite our hands off for £20m... ?

Would be very interesting if this was actually close to being wrapped up, as it's come from nowhere really.

The same happened with Gedson last week - from rumour to deal done in a couple of days.

Would suggest the club have got a lot better at plugging information leaks, and also demonstrate that we're perfectly capable of getting deals wrapped up rapidly even with the window coming to a close.

No chance it's 50m, even if he has that big release clause. That's an absurd price for a good to average player.

A selection of comments from Sociedad fans on Twitter:

Is like a rock he doesn't run alot but hes shot is amazing.

Honestly I don't like him. During this last two years he hasn't done anything. However, good luck

Here in Spain has a good physic, I'm not sure if he's ready for premier level, but he might be soon and his ability to score is undoubted, great striker that's for sure

Not bad player. Maybe he handt a regular level; but is enough till Kane's back, been a good player on the bench after that.

Yes, is good. Similar to Kane. You'll like him.

Why are people bothered how much we are paying? We need a striker desperately

A 50m fee could get us one of the brightest prospects in world football (Dembele, Werner, 2 Halands, etc.), but instead, we're signing this 28-year-old bloke with a 3 games/1 goal career ratio for the same (alleged) price
