Ante Vukusic

[Guest justin_3d]

Emenalo was spotted in the Maksimir Stadium by Croatian reporters and was approached after the derby match. Speaking with Sports Kenovsti he was quoted as saying he “really liked” Vukusic who is described as a “born goalscorer” before adding that he was “really interested” in the teenager.

Chelsea hope to sign a big-name creative midfield player while Ajax right-back Gregory van der Wiel is also on the list. Another target is Hajduk Split striker Ante Vukusic.

The telegraph was talking about players Chelsea might consider, and mention this guy, and to my knowledge i never heard of before.

I would honestly say, that a transfer like this would be all in the Guus making.

Yeah I remember this story.

It was around the same time that guy linked us to lining up a bid for Modric.

[Guest justin_3d]

Sounds interesting nonetheless.

For once being link with an unknown player, then a star.

I like deals like this. And if they are good, they might turn out like Ivan.

[LDN Blue 7,903]

He's a striker right?

[Guest justin_3d]

Yeah

Yap. First heard of him in this thread though. Don't like it tbh.

[LDN Blue 7,903]

Don't like it tbh.

Why?

[termninja 5,290]

Why?

At this time of his career, he should play as much as he can, rather then warming our bench. He'll hardly get a chance with Torres, Drogba and Sturridge battling for a place themselves already. Also, add to this Lukaku who we are close to sign from what I see.

the same thing was said about Ivan when he came to Chelsea.

Surely he'd go into the youth/reserve set up though?

[Igi26 346]

Why striker? We need playmaker, best in Croatia is Milan Badelj. Vukušić is good but we need midfielder.

Yeah he would, but I take a look at Borini and...

[Bosnian Blue 2,471]

Again overrated player by croatian media.He is something like Kalinic.We have good young players and don't need strikers.

Playmaker is the one.

Overrated or not, it seems Emanolo likes him.

Which is not saying much.

next di Santo..

I remember someone saying some time ago, that Ramires was an Emanolo buy.

He scouted him...not sure if that's true.

Wasn't he in the position of Chief Opposition Scout? To me that sounds as if his job was to watch the next opposition and help the coaching staff work on a strategy.

Anyway, he doesn't have coaching credentials, don't know why his opinion on a player should matter.
