xLiaaamx Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Forgot that the MLS is in off season in January and they often agree to loan deals that make no sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRC Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Would be an awful awful signing. Based on... Just don't think he is good enough or what we need. I'd rather buy someone who we know can do the business in the Premiership or a better league. Although 15m gets you nothing these days so I don't really know what the answer is. Seems like a gamble and signing someone for the sake of signing someone to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnNUFC Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 He intrigues me as a footballer, would look forward to his debut if this is true. No idea who's PL proven who would improve us in January, bearing in mind we're out of domestic loans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure he would get the chance to prove himself after a long MLS seasons where his team dominated to going to Newcastle where he gets barely any touches a game.

Ameritoon Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 He is coming off a long season and will only have 3 weeks off before January if this happens. Not sure throwing him into January matches in England will get the best out of him. He's talented though, I'll be very happy if this is true. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Cardiff (h) a player like him I assume would get kicked pillar to post. Suppose Man City (h) a quick number 10 on the break would be useful, but there's throwing him into the deep end and then there's that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xLiaaamx Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Nee way can we have something done for the beggining of January like. Also, classic Ashleyism that.

Well quite, but the alternative is to do nothing. £15m is our ceiling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 loan with option to buy is the exact thing you'd want to do for a player like him making the step from MLS to PL, esp price is agreed to already as well and we have the first right to buy.

Stifler Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 We don’t announce deals until they signed and medical is done etc, plus Almiron plays in the MLS play off final on Sunday, so no chance of our club saying anything yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Generally sick of these loans but, in these circumstances, it's the best way to do it. Just in case he doesn't adapt. Something in between 'obligation to buy' and 'option to buy' would be great. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
