even if i don't watch them, it just seems like there are more than enough quality looking strikers out there where if you're a professional scout or manager you should be able to identify talent and sign someone.

Dont know who that guy is tbh as i dont watch Deportivo, but any help Giroud can get is welcome.

Hate to be the spoil sport but, link please or this gets locked.

17'goals and 8 assists seems an OK return for a guy playing for deportivo.

looks like he's been bouncing around between some smaller clubs most of his career, and last season was the best he's had so far. i haven't watched a deportivo game in about 12 years though, so i have no idea if he's actually good

Would take anyone at this point for when Giroud inevitable breaks down being forced to play every game. Same applies to CB with Koscielny currently having to play through a back injury.

Involved in 27 goals last season, compared to 24 from Lacazette for example. €20m buyout clause is a steal.

Has an Eduardo type feel about it. Under the radar and out of the blue.

Where's the link? He's a good player always had a similar style to David Villa. Probably made up rumours again.

Cool. We are getting the Spanish Defoe.

[size=medium][font=PTregular, Georgia]l Arsenal is the fate of Lucas Pérez for the next three or four seasons. Except turnabout during the day, the Galician front gunner player will be tomorrow.During yesterday, in Corunna, it was total agreement between the two clubs for the transfer of the player. In the end, Arsenal will pay the termination clause of Lucas Pérez -20 million euros, and striker Arsene Wenger will he ever wanted.[/font][/size]

[size=medium][font=PTregular, Georgia]In La Coruna already they started pasada- nothing more to finish the season to get used to the idea that their franchise player leave the team. And at the end, so it will happen. Of course, Lucas is going through the front door and leaving the coffers of the club deportivista 20 kilos.[/font][/size]
[size=medium][font=PTregular, Georgia]The Arsenal was not the first proposal arrived at the headquarters of the Galician club so far this summer. There have been many groups that have been interested in the situation of the ram, and many others who have called his representative Rodrigo Fernandez Lovelle-, but the official proposal has reached the Plaza de Pontevedra was the -first Everton - -second- Arsenal and, although they were several Spanish clubs called the all-powerful, who are also interested in the striker.[/font][/size]
[size=medium][font=PTregular, Georgia]So, the Galician club Deportiva address is already working on the idea of being left without their star player, just a few days after the end of the market.[/font][/size]
[size=medium][font=PTregular, Georgia]The ball is now on the roof of the player, who must give Yes I want to Arsenal.Since its environment is recognized that there that offer, but still maintain the discourse that, if a trigger event occurs, this would always with the approval of Deportivo.[/font][/size]

We were linked with him last season too during the winter transfer window. We probably have tracked him for a long time. Seems like we have given up on other preferred forwards for one reason or the other. Hope he is good enough to compete with Giroud.

A left footer too - comes in handy for some variety.

I don't know much about this cat, but I watched him score an insane goal last season against either Athletic Bilbao or Atletico Madrid. He basically assisted himself.
