£30m+ for a 22yr old who has scored 10 times in 53 appearances. He'll fit right in and represents such good value for money.

Maybe give him 10-12 games before we start to judge?

Truth is we can not afford proven quality so it is what it is.

Apparently, with the arrival of Wobbler, Firpo wants to go back to Real Betis one of his former clubs. They are interested in Firpo but he has a contract till 2025, which makes transfer in this window rather difficult.

Betis are about to sell their first choice LB so could have legs. Just hope the club realise they aren’t going to fully recoup what they paid for him but it would be a big salary off the wage bill.

We're rumoured to be paying a club record fee for a 22-year old whose quality "is not proven"? Sound piece of business. And do we have the luxury of 10 - 12 games to see if this "unproven" forward (they don't appear to use the word "striker") c n cut the mustard?

[hopelesslyoptimistic]

Of those games he played he won’t have started all of them and probably got Joffy style game time in a fair few.

The reports coming out of Germany about this season sound good - the sky sports person who covers Bundesliga games was pretty glowing.

I believe the word unplayable was mentioned and not in a Junior Firpo context but more the oppositions view.

It’s the January window, panic buying season, unlikely to find bargains in this window. And if the club doesn’t make a move for someone, they’ll be lambasted for that too…
