New striker from Italy 15:15 - Jan 22 with 11137 views | calcioconmattia_l | Have been informed by a relative who works on the analysis team at Sampdoria that we have been looking at striker Manuel De Luca and talks are now at an advanced stage. He has a year and a half left on his contract but expect him to be able to leave for just under £1m. At 6"4, he looks to be a good replacement/cover for George Hirst. Goalscoring record isn't anything to shout about but his work rate and hold up play is superb! COYB |  | | |  |

They're just getting him fit for us, I'm buying a De Luca shirt as we speak. [Post edited 22 Jan 2024 15:33]

New striker from Italy on 15:49 - Jan 22 with 7356 views | Help | As a foreign player needs to be min £15k a week as those are da rules for the work permit to stand. Which is probably why we don't scout Europe yet. Even worse in prem min wage £30k per week for work permit to stand. I think from memory. The work permit is the problem. |  |

I’d save the arse tattoo for a player with an ‘o’ in his name. |  | |  |

Sounds like an exact replacement judging by Hirst's previous record in the second tier! |  |
