    Eberechi Eze

    Eze would be a smart buy. He scores and creates and is also far more physical than Maddison

    Santiago Giménez

    I agree on this. One of Gimenez's biggest assets is his ability to create space for teammates. That won't show up in stats. It could potentially free up Son and Johnson from the wide positions. He's possibly more than a team player than Richy, who works hard but he's also a bit maverick.

    The Summer 2024 scouting thread

    There's an interesting debate on Futbol Americas about Gimenez and where he should go. Consensus was that a top PL side would be too big a move. However, there was a feeling he could attain that level in due course. They pointed out the relative failures of Antony and to a lesser degree Gakpo...

    The Summer 2024 scouting thread

    Mitchell Weiser of Werder Bremen always looks very good as well. He's more of a right wing back but possibly similar to Porro. He's 30, but I'd say he's a very youthful 30 and pacey. He was at Bayern in the past and was instrumental in their defeat earlier in the season.

    The Summer 2024 scouting thread

    Just watched highlights of RB Leipzig v Dortmund and Xavi Simons looks very impressive.

    The Summer 2024 scouting thread

    Gimenez perhaps has the traits that Ange is looking for. His main weapon is his movement either to create chances for himself or others. He's good in the air and can score. He'd be great for the crosses into the box.

    Yes, Calafiori is looking very good. Is also interesting that whilst he is playing at left fullback for Bologna he does also play as a left centre back in a three and is more naturally drawn to the centre of the pitch when attacking. That could fit in well with out inverted fullbacks. He will...

    In that mould but possibly more aggressive in his tackling.

    The Summer 2024 scouting thread

    Lewis Ferguson is an interesting option. He usually plays as the most attacking midfielder for Bologna but is more of a box to box midfielder. His technique is perhaps limited but he's very efficient and effective at what he does and has linked play well for Bologna whilst also leading their...

    The Summer 2024 scouting thread

    Bologna are up to 4th which is very impressive as they are a relatively small team. A few of their players might be worth looking at.

    La Liga 23/24

    I think he can certainly play as an 8 which would allow Foden or Palmer to play as a 10 for England.

    The Summer 2024 scouting thread

    Joao Gomes and Ederson are high for defensive stats and both potentially more progressive than Bissouma. Also intrigued by Maxence Cacqueret who is more of deep lying playmaker.

    Antonio Nusa

    At the moment Deki is struggling to make relatively simple passes and his shooting leaves a lot to be desired. Im not sure he is ideal as a secondary backup to Maddison. A third option, yes, but we need someone to challenge Maddison for a starting spot. For whatever reason, Lo Celso isn't...

    Antonio Nusa

    Bilal El Khannouss might be another to watch who is very creative as a 10 and can also play wide. Seems to have been watched regularly by Spurs and a host of top clubs..

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 31st January

    Dukanovic was linked back in December/January. He's a versatile forward that can play across the front. Strong and pacey with a good shot. Sonko is another young talent. Was signed by Gent and wears no.9. He was touted as a sensation but hasn't set the Belgian league alight just yet.

    His stats aren't great but his dribbling at speed is amazing. Admittedly that's from highlights reel so he could squander the ball a fair bit.

    Watched a quick clip of Taha Ali who is Swedish. He's an exceptionally good dribbler. Doesn't appear to have amazing end product but that could be because team mates don't put away the chances etc

    Maybe we know Williams is unlikely 🤷‍♂️

    Ander Barrenetxea? Think we have been linked previously and Arsenal are also keen. He's got great technique and can also defend. 22, so not especially young but is probably the best Real Sociedad youngster since Greizmann.

    Alejandro Balde? More of a left back but could transition like Bale Balde = Bald Eagle
