JOBS FOR THE BOYS!

Seems an odd choice for that role. He comes from a journalistic background and most of his CV in football is in a public facing PR type role.

So he knows how to sell the club to potential targets. I don’t think his role is that of a scout but more of a negotiator and breaking down doors.

He's going to coordinate the day to day running of the recruitment department according to the article on the website.

What exactly does a "head of recruitment operations" do? Sounds like he'll be above the head of scouting is it more about coordinating people than actual scouting of players

[BillyWoofs_shinpad 1,884]

It probably means that he is in charge of all recruitment, not just playing staff but general club staff as well. A bit like a director of HR in any other organisation.

The players we identify and eventually sign are pivotal to the club's success, I think this area of the club is even more important than the actual manager himself.

 

Hopefully this is the start of putting together a recruitment set up which can be more successful than recent years. I don't expect him to be identifying players himself but maybe Bevington can find the right people who can.

I don't think so Billy, I think it's purely player (and possibly first team staff) recruitment

Christ barragan is still under contract. Funnily enough I think he'd do a job in the championship...

[Foogle 2,104]

I thought there was some sort of 1 million obligation to buy clause in Barragan's loan deal? Tony Pulis won't want him anyway... can't take throw ins.

Do you think? The article published this morning was very brief, I can’t see him being involved in identifying players and surely. Bauser is the man responsible for doing the deals.

Kind of surprised Tom Brewitt has gone so soon though I guess he was a Garry Monk signing.

[Humpty 3,261]

If you were to sell Traore now, how much would you want for him?

 

I've just seen a tweet saying £40m...plus £5m for a Spain appearance, £2.5m after 50 appearances and 15% sell on clause....
