Transfer Rumour Raul Jimenez

Someone torch this with fire or I'm hitting the bleach, as this kid is total durge.

Getting more keen on him.

Think part of his scoring record comes from the fact he's come off the bench a lot in his career with Benfica.

Offers a good hold up option for us going forward.

We need someone to go straight into the starting 11 mate, not someone to come off the bench.

Long overdue his own thread, considering we were scouting him last season.

..we scout lots of players.

..we scout lots of players.

Indeed, but he's been a 'target' for some time. Some players we have a passing interest in, some - like Jimenez - we watch repeatedly with the idea of making a move for the player.

I've compiled my own scouting list.

Pretty confident we can head hunt one of these scoundrels.

Seems like this one might have a bit of weight to it or at least WRD on TEF thinks so.....,

And who is to say he can't?

New club, new system. Starting on field with new teammates and coaches he may thrive.

Happy to trust the powers that be if he signs and will back him in.

...his representatives have been touting him around clubs for ages, he barely gets game time at Benfica. The indication is that news of an Everton bid was a ruse by Portugese outlet, Rekord, to force his price up. Saying that, I suppose he's one of a number of strikers we could bring in because he's certainly available.

His YouTube videos aren't great, especially the diving.

But he does look quick for his size. Also looks like he plays out wide a fair which would partly explain his scoring record

 

[Nymzee]

He is gash. But he's someone.

 

[The_La]

What I will say is that we have a history of trying and failing to sign Portuguese based players on deadline day and flailing miserably
