SC Heerenveen has given Cardiff City permission to talk to Alfred Finnbogason, scorer of the Eredivisie. # voetbalpings

SC Heerenveen Alfred Finnbogason Monday authorized to deal with Premier League club in conversation Cardiff City . The Welsh Association volunteered as Omrop Friesland in Heerenveen and Eredivisionist gave the green light to both parties to the conversation to go. Cardiff, which this season is new in the English premier class, has yet submitted a formal bid.
SC Heerenveen would prefer that Finnbogason remains. The first offer was rejected by the Icelandic striker, who wants his club Omrop Fryslân recognition knows that the club has done with it a higher salary him a counteroffer:. Intended that Finnbogason than a year bites know, until mid-2016. Now runs his contract for another two years and it is an option for another season.
If Finnbogason want to leave, you can. Interested clubs must then, however, ten million paid to Heerenveen . Until now, the easy scoring striker linked to various clubs, but no one was even willing to meet the asking price. Finnbogason stands at 30 goals in 35 league matches for Heerenveen.

37 apps, 30 goals for his respective club

Would be a great signing but why another striker?

Get in!

Some people saying fee is 7m

Interesting if this is true and we do sign him. Seeing as we tend to play one upfront, another striker must surely mean the likes of Velikonja, Rudy and Mason will be gone. I can see Mason and Rudy being loaned out with Velikonja being sold. Thought we were looking for another winger though?

I think we are looking for a winger too. If this guy joins we can say bye bye to Velikonja/Rudy.

Just noticed his number is 11 for Herenveen, could that be why Malky left the 11 shirt vacant?

Maybe coincidence but we have the number 11 vacant, Finnbogason was number 11 at Heereveen

Hmmmm

Because we need one

Maynard has done nothing in the Premier League yet, despite being with West Ham (1 PL appearance 0 goals)
Cornelious yet to prove he can do it in the Premier League but good prospect
Gestede not exactly Mr Super Striker
Veljonka done it in the development side but yet to do it in the first team, will he ever?
Smith is he a striker or a winger? is he past his best I think so
Bellamy is he a striker or a winger? how many goals will he get? he is definately past his best unfortunately

That leaves us with one main striker with any Premier League experience - Campbell 95 PL appearances 15 goals, a goal in just over every 6 games, not exactly prolific.

Serpico on ccmb linked this guy a while ago, and reconfirmed again this week.

Apparently we cooled our interest initially because he lacked pace.......but his finishing is something else.

He scored twice against Ajax this week. (all info from that thread on ccmb so not claiming I'm the info guy here)

6 goals in 4 apps this season as well if I'm not mistaken.


His agent is unreachable but the Icelandic and Dutch press are going all for this. (Serpico on CCMB)

Rudy and Velikonja were bought for the future, if they do leave, it'll be on a loan basis

Fella I sit next to in work is a Celtic fan and they've been chasing Finbogasson (sp?) for a while. He's been raving about him.

Or you could say now with us two games two goals, goal a game will do me

Seems like they're going for Schalke striker 'Pukki' instead

But I take your point, Campnell is great, but it seems Malky has doubts over Cornelius, unless he is just protecting him and giving him time to settle into a new country and culture like he did with KimBo.....

Their shit sell em

Would make our depth greater upfront with more quality as well.

I've heard that Nicky Maynard is on his way to Nottm Forest, not sure if its a loan or permanent transfer. But if we sign Finnbogason, I would assume Maynard will be gone by the weekend.

Newly promoted Cardiff City are set to further bolster their ranks with the signing of Iceland hitman Alfred Finnbogason, according to sources in Holland.

Finnbogason has been nothing short of a revelation since joining Heerenveen from Lokeren last summer, striking 30 times in just 37 Eredivisie outings.

Cardiff have already approached Heerenveen and their sporting director Gaston Sporre hinted that his side are open to selling the forward, 24, to the Welsh team.

He told Dutch newspaper AD: "There are offers that you cannot throw in the bin."

Heerenveen are reported to have granted Finnbogason permission to discuss terms with Cardiff and a deal could be completed before the end of the week.

Malky has doubts over Cornelius!Can I have some of what you've been sniffing-Ink isn't dry on his contract yet.

Malky just said on SSN that he won't be making an offer

No bid & not going to bid! From the main man
