I don't really know anything about him, but his Wiki description sounds like he could do a job for us:

Plus I'm not sure any of them have ever been said to "cause havoc in the box" (not in football terms anyway). However, I wouldn't be against signing a small, quick striker who knows where the goal is. Basically I think most of us just want some goals, even if it means we sign a goal-scoring goalkeeper!

Really would not be one of my first choices. I made a thread the other week about 20 or so strikers and I don't want to brag, but any of them would have higher chances of settling in than him. He's slow and he's kind of old by now for a stiker who is supposed to also run and press. He never was one for this and in the Premier League it's needed, I don't know if he could adapt. We already have strikers who are not mobile and don't run enough. I'd rather have Llorente than him, more of a warrior and already accustomed to the Premier League, we know he can deliver from his time in Swansea. But at this age he wouldn't be top choice either. But better than Sandro Wagner. Plus, Bayern will surely demand money too. Just because he comes from one of the best 4 teams in Europe, you know he'll be expensive.

Expert comments, with which I agree. Personally I would like to see Sørloth given a run of a few games as starter. He seems to be learning all the time in his holdup play, is quite speedy, and puts himself about quite forcefully. Might just have the makings of a decent PL striker?

Well we do have Ayew and van Aanholt. I saw them cause havoc in the box in the Spurs game.

COYP Think we need 2 strikers, release Ayew and loan out Sorloth and try to get RLC back. As mentioned prefer Llorente over this guy. Get him in and a tricky fast striker and our options up front will increase. Think Wilf, Wrighty and Brighty. Edited by Booted Eagle (24 Nov 2018 6.42pm)
