I think if I recall Norwich tried to sign him a few years ago but they wouldn't cough up the cash for him. He is a good player and Everton had Lukaku so he was never gonna get any decent run in the side there, so I don't think we really know what he is capable of. Glen Murray and Tomer have done well in the last year but it is a whole new ball game coming up against the central defenders we will come up against this coming season.

He did well at Hull, from what I saw. Hardworking, quick, direct, strong. Ideal if you ask me. (Any truth in this would suggest Hemed is off)
Would it? I think CH made it clear he's looking for an additional striker, not a replacement.
Nah this is just any excuse to get rid of Tomer.
After the last couple of days on here, were it not for Skalak and Bong, I'd genuinely be wondering if Tomer may be on the receiving end of Brighton fans less than positive 'support'.

Maybe we should sign him just so we could break our transfer AND wage records in one go?
He cost Everton £13.5m and they were prepared to let Hull have him at a 'bargain' £10m plus his earnings of £55K per week.
Rumours huh!!?

Re his wages I think that there are often deals where the selling club agrees to pay a portion of the wages - for example he could sign for us on £35,000 a week and Everton would pay him £20,000 a week for the rest of his contract (with them). It's not ideal for the selling club, but they at least get a transfer fee and a large chunk of his wages of the books.

What are you expecting? Vardy for £8m and £40k per week, or Luis Sanchez for £7m perhaps and £20k plus £5k per goal bonus per week?
The man is desperate to get away from Everton who have told him he has no future, so maybe £8m, and yes, £40k per week MIGHT do it. We are not paying League 1 wages anymore.

Realistically, this is how a lot of Premier League transfers happen with clubs around the world who can't pay the mental wages English clubs pay. Even within England, and the Premier League - Joe Hart is being paid partly by West Ham but mostly by Man City as he was last season at Torino.
People are being a bit hard on Niasse, he did ok for Hull last season. Not spectacular, but he did ok. I think he'd be ok but he's not one to purchase, that would be too much of a gamble.

I don't think it's a bad call. But, I'm not sure that he offers much more than our current forwards.
I'm still hoping that we spunk the majority of our budget on a south American flairmeister, even if they're unproven!
Makes no sense, right?

I know nothing and honestly I don't - but If you were to ask me my thoughts I'd say this was a go-er ( just a guess ). Millions on a South American ? Definitely NOT

According to Watford's local rag he's probably on his way here
http://www.watfordobserver.co.uk/sp...aper_talk__with_forward_heading_for_Brighton/
despite the Hornets' desire to sign a new striker, the Watford head coach has cast his attention elsewhere with Richarlison close to signing in a £13 million deal, and no enquiry ever made for Niasse.
Instead, sources close to the player have revealed the Senegal forward is likely to sign for Premier League new-boys Brighton.

Im not commiting to the IN bit yet, i really have not seen that much, but if he offers the power and pace part as you suggest that is something we need.
Only just 27 too i see so a decent age.
Was still kind of hoping something a bit more WOW though
