Yassin Oukili - 23 - RKC Waalwijk.
6’5 holding midfielder with elite duel-winning numbers. 5 goals, 1 asssist, 7.3 avg rating in the Eredivisie last season.
(I’m on a train and bored so thought I’d have a look)
Pep and Arteta are both all in on “duel winners”. Players who win their tackles, dribbles or come away from pressure situations with the ball. Very encouraging that it looks like we’re doing the same thing.
Lasse Berg Johnsen - 23 - Malmo. Averages 83 passes a game at 93% completion.
Patrick Berg - 26 - Bodo/Glimt. Probably too expensive, but can do everything.
Hull Daily Mail confirm the gazumping. Hull agreement with West Brom was apparently less than £2m. If we've matched that and got him for like £1.5m that's a great signing.
