NYCFC Players Wanted Thread

[Marito]

Also, this guy is a Serie A striker probably looking for a new home, at least on loan

Genoa has a stable of very young strikers that are getting most of the minutes, including Sanabria on loan from Betis since 2 weeks ago. That loan indicates Lapadula is probably 3rd or 4th in the pecking order. He is a Serie B lifer who was the top scorer in Serie B in 2015/16. Bought by Milan, played passably for them in 2016 and got a couple caps with the NT but has since reverted to form. Pescara wants him back in Serie B. Very strong physically, durable, solid. True 9.

Seems like CFG is helping out MLS by signing some players and entering the bidding for others in order to drive up the price.

Haha, does this qualify as 4D chess?

Seeing Saints might let Charlie Austin go, I think he would do pretty well in MLS

He'd be a perfect candidate as an mls striker. Physical with some pace and on the younger side with some experience. That's a good call on your end. See him wanting to stay in Italy though. Plus I think MLS front offices are looking more to the south.

Odd that he wasn’t loaned to NYCFC since he’s a midfielder and we seem to be short by a few.

 

[Kjbert]

I’m assuming City spent $7 million on a player that’s better than the player we are getting.

Looks like Ante is on an 18 month loan back to Split

Isn't Brandon Barker a former Man City academy player?

Saw this on Instagram:

"According to an inside source, NYCFC are interested Ferencváros and Hungarian national team attacker Roland Varga. The 29-year-old has played for Ferencváros since 2015, scoring 36 goals in 108 appearances. He also has 13 goals in 13 appearances for the Hungarian national team. "

Transfermarket lists him as a winger so he seems like our type.

 

[Revfugee]

Some guy named Lewis. Plays for the USMNT. Has played about 35 total minutes and has set up two goals already.

Brandon is still a City player. He did well at Hibs, but has struggled for game time at Preston. I would recall him and send him to New York.
