With just two days to go in the transfer window, Norwich City seem to be desperately scratching around for a striker. Nelson Oliveira has yet to be announced although we are led to believe that deal has been done.



A report from RMC Sport in France says that both Norwich City and Brighton sent scouts to watch Bordeaux striker, Diego Rolan over the weekend.



Rolan scored the winner in the 1-0 victory over Nantes and the 23 year old Uruguayan was also reportedly watched by representatives of Manchester United and Bayern Munich.



The report suggests that Bordeaux would be willing to sell for the right price but that the player would want guarantees of first team football, something that those European Giants would not be able to offer, putting the Championship clubs in the box seat.



This lad can apparently play on either wing or as a striker through the middle.



This is all very well but with two days to go, are Bordeaux in a position to get a replacement? If we’re not careful it will be Dwight Gayle all over again. Having said that, maybe this is one of Alex’s ‘irons in the fire…’
