Capt_Canary 0 Posted August 16, 2015 Failing an audacious attempt to sign Charlie Austin who lets remember hasn''t had any club bid the £15m, wants a move to the Premier League and only earning £26,500 after being relegated and apparently is demanding £45k is Benik Afobe.He should be number one target. Young and hungry and apparently Arsene Wenger really rates this guy. Scores goals, can hold it up and has pace.Forget Destro, forget Gayle this is who we should be looking at. Our scouts really need to have their radar all on this guy. Possibly part exchange with some of our fringe players like Turner, Hooper or Lafferty and cash. Afobe, Hoolahan and Redmond would pull some trees down for sure and he would have resale value. This guy will be in the Premier League next year for sure.

Branston Pickle 3,651 Posted August 16, 2015 Might not be a bad shout, Villa are meant to be thinking about a bid, but it seems we are closing in on our main targets who may well be elsewhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Klose 0 Posted August 16, 2015 Wenger rates him that highly that he let him go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Branston Pickle 3,651 Posted August 16, 2015 AN could be looking at any number of players... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
STAN 29 Posted August 16, 2015 Any number of players? I think you could safely narrow it down to Afobe, Jelavic or Davies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jamie 10 0 Posted August 16, 2015 Like Adobe as a player, suggested getting him in Jan as a back up, like you have said quick strong has a great Finnish on him too, also a good age. Can''t see wolves letting him go maybe a cash + player deal with a striker going there way, but with the way the transfer market has gone so far this year I doubt anything will happen!

Herman 9,750 Posted August 16, 2015 ...and carrying Kimi Raikkonen. That''s some player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grant Holts Moustache 105 Posted August 16, 2015 If they want to sign Afobe this window they wouldn''t be watching him today. That and other due diligence would have already happened. If they were going because of any type of bid then I don''t think he would be playing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
