A player with good experience and an out and out striker. A good finisher who is good in the air, he comes with a great pedigree and tore up Ligue One last season. For what he would cost the Baggies in the overall package then they're not going to get better value for money elsewhere methinks. 14 starts for Monaco last season returned 9 goals and 7 assists, that's top drawer and I'm amazed someone hasn't snapped him up so far. 1

I think many clubs around Europe would like to snap him up but I imagine his wages would rule about 90% of them out. I do agree with you though, he will end up being a great signing for somebody

Slimani has been linked with Man Utd and PSG this year so you would have thought he would be a good signing for someone.
Sly Posted 20 September 2020 Posted 20 September 2020 Slimani is an odd one for sure. Potentially lethal in front of goal, given the right service. However I feel we’d need to adapt how we play to suit it. It’s okay saying plan B, however we don’t play that game at all. He’d be a good foil as a 2nd striker like he was for Ben Yedder. Even if we’re substituting 50% of his wages though, he needs to leave for the good of himself and the club. 1

He will get a move in the final few days of the window to a big club if they fail to land their main targets.

Those are some impressive stats, I'm surprised we haven't got more low to mid level PL clubs after him.
FOXSE Posted 20 September 2020 Posted 20 September 2020 Slimani is perfect for China. I was hoping for a stupid off from there.

Yes, I believe the salary cap is $3.3m per year. Oscar is on $26m a year, so doubt he’ll be renewing his contract. The limit is also 4 foreign players in the match day squad, with only 3 on the pitch at any one time. ...... I think. 1

bald reynard Posted 21 September 2020 Posted 21 September 2020 What on earth is happening with Diabate ? We get loads of posts and updates on Slimani, Silva and Ghezzal, but no mention of 'The 4th Man'. He's in exactly the same 'limbo state' as the other 3, but while they're constantly linked with possible moves away, there is nothing on Diabate. Could it be that BR is thinking of keeping him (he is only 24 - unlike the 'oldies' - and so might have a future with us). He obviously impressed (a bit !) in his 1 season at the KP and did OK at Amiens last year. Has anyone heard anything about him this summer ?

I mean, there's even an online forum for clubs trying to unload players.
