It would take him 6 months to get to the fitness levels to play for us.. absolutely pointless signing him in January as he'd be no use to us this season.. though when it comes to how stupid we are with transfers I wouldn't be exactly shocked to see him join usNow WBA know that the best case scenario is a tribunal fee and the worst case going somewhere in Europe for peanuts it's worth asking the question for less than £10 million.
As a third (or second) striker we won't get better value so worth a punt in my opinion.
Sub for the second half of the season whilst he gets fit and we assess him for next year.
If it doesn't look good we'll get our money back at least so a no brainer for me.
