Abel Hernandez is the player we all want to see arrive this summer and it looks as though he is closing in on a move.
Over the weekend he and his old club Hull confirmed that he was going to be leaving on a free and we have certainly been heavily linked with bringing him in as we adopt an aggressive transfer strategy.
With that said, then, he seems to have dropped a rather exciting hint that news is on the way soon, and I take his choice of clothing as a positive sign to say the least:

The Verdict
What a signing it would be for us.
He’s a player capable of winning games by himself at this level and would be the number 9 we’ve needed for a good while.
Perhaps I’m jumping the gun with the colour shirt he’s got on but it just seems too convenient to not be significant.
