He is composed on the ball, with a half decent 1st touch, can hold it up and is quick. All should stand up at a higher level. From what I have read, his work rate and pressing is very good. 2
Finnegan Posted 1 August 2025 Posted 1 August 2025 He plays in the position we most need, he's pretty obviously ready for the step up to Championship football, he'll cost less than we paid for Tom Cannon, we don't have much to spend but we could still definitely afford that. We could 100% win the race for him if we wanted to. But we won't, we'll think he's too big a risk and isn't ready and we won't buy til we sell so he'll already have gone to Swansea before we get Coady, Hermansen or BEK sold. Swansea will buy him for something like 5m after add ons and extras and the worst bit is, they'll then sell him in a year - two at most - time to a club exactly our kinda size for about 15m. 2
brookfox Posted 1 August 2025 Posted 1 August 2025 If we go into the season with Ayew, Daka and Kone as ST options and replaced Soumare with Brownhill I’d be feeling a lot more confident about our goalscoring potential. 1
FoxesFourLife Posted 1 August 2025 Posted 1 August 2025 (edited) £5M for this lad get it done looks perfect for the false 9 role him and Ayew with Evans as back up we will be fine. Edited 1 August 2025 by FoxesFourLife
stu Posted 1 August 2025 Posted 1 August 2025 Makes too much sense, which is why it obviously won't happen. 1
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 1 August 2025 Posted 1 August 2025 Wonder if we could sell Daka to Newcastle as Isak's replacement I mean like for like in a sense apart from goal scoring etc . . . . 4
LVFox Posted 1 August 2025 Posted 1 August 2025 forward options of Kone, Ayew, Daka and Evans works for me….until AFCON 1
ARM1968 Posted 1 August 2025 Posted 1 August 2025 Kone isn’t that good and won’t be. Still, sometimes the stinking bottom of the bargain bin is where you have to do business.

All the professional armchair critics here with their famous eye tests. Soumano makes Daka look like prime Mahrez in terms of elegance, proper scruffy footballer. 1

mozartfox Posted 1 August 2025 Posted 1 August 2025 Amazing how French Clubs find these players and we sign Ayew. Go we go back to the Kante/Mahrez school of scouting??

RyCleary Posted 1 August 2025 Posted 1 August 2025 Salech from Cardiff far better fit and probably costs the same 1

winteriscoming Posted 1 August 2025 Posted 1 August 2025 With Coady going that’s 2m and the wages we’ve saved around 4-5m it’s a no brainer to get Kone. So I fully expect us to announce the signing of Bamford in the next couple of days. 1
