DcFc Dyycheee Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 http://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/536476/Fernando-Forestieri-Derby-transfer-news?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter Derby lodge £7m bid for Sheffield Wednesday star Fernando Forestieri The Argentina-born Italian Under-21 international scored the Owls' winner against Aston Villa on Sunday. But Derby boss Nigel Pearson hopes his bid will prise him away to the iPro Stadium. Forestieri, 26, has made a big impact at Hillsborough after moving from Watford for £3m. He played a leading role in Wednesday reaching the play-off final last season. Forestieri can operate in a wide role or as a through-the-middle striker. At Watford he scored 20 times in 80 games and Pearson wants his attaching threat to aid Derby's promotion bid this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintRam Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Oh, guess there was a proper link @Animal is a Ram - immediately for some reason makes it more doubtful in my mind, based on the source Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal is a Ram Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Can't imagine for a minute that Wendies would sell one of their key players from last season to a promotion rival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North_Stand_Ram Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 We want 10m+ for Hendrick but offer that for him. Derisory if true. No way they'd sell. But good to see we have £. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 We must need someone to knit our attack together, seeing as he's an attaching threat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gypsy Ram Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Could be the missing piece, and the kind of player to actually fit into what we have already instead of what we signed last season. #Excited! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anon Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Never happening. The bid is too low, Wednesday will not sell to a rival, there isn't much incentive, beyond his cut of the fee, for Forrestieri to move from play off finalists to play off semi finalists.

Ramos Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Him and knockeart were at the top of my wishlist but both are unrealstic. Would be happily surprised if this came off but why would Wednesday sell him full stop no matter to a promotion rival. Wednesday have a great chance in my eyes to even make the top two, at least thats what they are building towards so selling forestieri to us would be unthinkable on their end. It is the kind of signing we are crying out for. Someone who can actually break in between the banks of the opposition midfield and defence, get their midfield turned. Too many of our cms as good as they are, play in front of the opposition and only really hughes tries to pass between the lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think Butterfield is very Pearson unfortunately :( and yes I would too Hendrick and Johnson for say £15mil with Butterfiled and Camara loaned out and Forestieri and Wells for £20mil would be very good business in my eyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sexydadbod Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 I've love him here but this has no chance of happening. What it does do however, is unsettle the player. There have been many rumours have he has fallen out with the Sheffield Wednesday manager and wants to move to a bigger club. He also didn't celebrate when he scored the winner against Villa when he is usually one to jump around and celebrate crazily and he retweeted Faurlin's tweet saying that he should be playing in the premier league. If he does leave then it's good for us as a promotion rival will lose their best player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quality over quantity. Thought Blackman was good on Saturday... And Camara seems the kind of player Pearson will love... I remember us struggling to contain players like Lloyd Dyer and Jeff Schlupp when they cam against us and Camara feels like the same kinda player... Quick and direct...
