Forza Italian Football are reporting our interest in Alberto Paloschi. This may well be a realistic option for us.
Premier League side Swansea City have joined the queue of Serie A sides eager to sign Chievo striker Alberto Paloschi.
The Swans recently appointed Francesco Guidolin as their new coach, and the former Udinese boss has reportedly expressed his desire to bring the 26-year-old to Wales in an attempt to improve the team’s scoring record as they have only found the net on 22 occasions in the 2015-16 season.
According to Sky Sport Italia, Swansea have increased their previous offer to €8 million plus €2m in bonuses in order to beat Atalanta, who have seen their bid of €7m plus €1m in bonuses rejected.
Sampdoria have also been linked to the player, as they could soon lose their forward Eder, with the likes of Leicester City and Inter keen on the Brazilian-born Italy international.
Paloschi has scored eight goals in 21 Serie A appearances so far, closing in on his 2013-2014 record of 13 league goals.

The new manager is presumably used to playing that way, so will know how to set the team up for two forwards and how to play that system. | |

Not much width in that formation. I think the idea of playing Ayew as the main striker supported by Paloschi gives the option for a winger in midfield. I believe that Guidolin likes to play a wide player on the left of midfield. | | | |

Curtains for Routs, Montero, and Barrow then ? | |

I'm not sure.. but Paloschi is adaptable in the front 3..
Gomis/Eder our Strikers
Paloschi.. cover for our Strikers and Ayew's role.
Ayew/Emnes
Gylfi/Grimes/JDG (hopefully)
Barrow/Montero/Routledge
Ki/Britton/Cork
Rangel/Taylor/Naughton
Amat/Bartley/Williams/Federico
Fabs/Nordfeldt

Sky think we are offering him a 4 year contract on 17k a week.. Cheap as chips! | | | |

I truly don't want to say this, but he needs to learn the offside rule or he'll never fulfill his potential.
I'd have a time for him if he would learn it. | |

Underwhelmed to be honest. Hope it works out obviously but does not whet the appetite. | | | |

what were you expecting for the kind of money we have to spend? | |

Think if he signs then he will suprise a lot of people. Scores a fair amount of goals for a Chievo team who is regularly at the lower reaches of the Italian top flight.
Big, strong with a turn of pace. Able to play anywhere across the front 3 but prefers to play up top, capable of scoring tap ins and from distance.
Would be happy with this one. | |

Can't see him coming here for that wage to be honest.. Especially if he's going to be an important player, he'll want to be earning with the big dogs surely? never know though.. Perhaps thats after tax?
Ac Fans seems to love him and the general consensus in Italy is that he's a hard working player with a good finish.. Guess we'll see! Although, De Guzman had agreed terms and has been having his medical for the past 2 weeks so perhaps we won't  | | | |

Gomis will be back up , 3rd back up I assume .
He might even go now , fingers crossed ! | |

It's more than what he's on at Chievo so I don't see why he wouldn't be happy with it? | | | |

How old is Gomis? If he hasn't learnt how to stay onside by now I don't hold out much hope. What's the saying about "old dogs and new tricks"? | | | |
| Alberto Paloschi - realistic prospect? on 21:03 - Jan 27 with 3399 views | Griffting |
That's a fair opinion and completely down to the player and his agent I suppose. I just assumed he'd be looking for a premiership wage coming here 30-40 k plus. Thought that was the going rate of our first team players these days. | | | |

why send Gomis out at this point? should loan Eder out to the championship and see what he can do with regular game time. we all know that an in form Gomis is a great thing, and maybe this will light a fire under him.
if he's unhappy, then he can be shipped off to the middle east in the summer. | | | |

It's not. The majority of our squad is on less than 40k | | | |

OMG, just watched his clips, can't believe how Trundlesque he is. He even runs with those little short steps as if he's clenching a nugget between his cheeks. Awesome, I'm a fan already. | |

Can't get my head round his surname, so I'm gonna call him Berty
Last thing Doc Wins will want to see is a similarity to Trunds  | |
