3.year deal.

Will join the u21s.

But odd given he left West Ham to further his career and has effectively gone from edges of there 1st team to our u21s.

But anyway

Welcome Sonny
Perhaps Perkins realises that WH posses more quality than we do and knew his chances of breaking through are better in Leeds.

I'd rather see him off the bench than Bamford at this moment in time. We'll never know if he's good enough by keeping him in the u21s forever.

Really like what he's shown so far. He's scored in every game for the U-21's this season. Scored a few days ago for England and the hat trick today. He's the pick of our current crop of U21's. I'm repeating myself. Even though he's been playing behind Joseph in the 21's I see him as most likely to fill in at center forward for the senior team.

Any idea what position he played for England today? I see the line up but haven't seen a formation.

And another goal for England Under 19s tonight. That continues his run of scoring in every game he's played this season

England beat Denmark 4-2. Gyabi was captain and also scored

Yes yes yes yes yes, take a punt on the lad and let him get a taste of the big-time asap. He'll never forget the feeling at ER, or where he got his PL debut.

My only regret is that he only signed on a 3 year term. When do the vultures start circling, June?

This was useful, didnt have to search.

West Ham are very annoyed with us (although not naming us) as shown by there reaction when Perkins left.

They suspect he was tapped up and want a fee for him of well in the 7 figure range whereas we want to pay no more than £750k.
