Dodo (Domilson dos Santos)

Seems this deal is dead before it started
 
Very attacking, nippy skilful and has been pointed out was easily the best player when we played la viola last year.
You'll have watched him more than anyone I presume mate. Would you have put him forward as a potential from what you've seen.
 
Erm 😬

There's something that the reds want you to know
Our Brazilian boys are gon' put on a show
Muuuurillo
Cunha, Victor, Dodo, Moratoooo....
Sí Señor
Pass the ball to Jesus and he'll score
 
Probably the least exciting of the links we have had at RWB.

Read and Khalaili both have really exciting potential and have both already played at a high standard.
Munoz is older at 30 but well established as one of, if not the best RWB in the PL over the past couple of seasons.

Not very often I watch Fiorentina unless they are playing Inter, but Dodo looks like he has some decent attributes with his pace and energy but I am not convinced by his decision making in either final third. I know he won't be in the thick of it in and around the box, but 5ft 5in, especially when Glasner as apparently identified he was height and size in the squad, is an odd one. Lastly, during a time when I couldn't even name you who played right back for Brazil during the World Cup, he has never made an appearance for the national team.

I will trust the process but i like the other options we have been linked with better.

It really depends what our sell is though, doesn't it. Clearly we're very invested in Aina as a player, so I suspect a 'cheap(er) but quality enough RWB' is what we're after rather than someone who's gonna step straight into the 11 - cos any players we're going after of the quality you suggest would expect to come straight into the prem stating lineup, and perhaps that's not what we're after
 
At £10M he's a decent option and it allows Moreira to have another season on loan and hopefully in England.

It always makes me a bit nervous when you hear things about EM having ambitions of us being back in Europe ASAP and then the signings we make not quite matching that ambition.

If qualifying for Europe is the idea we probably needed to be looking at 3 or 4 signings who immediately improve the starting XI, Diomande certainly looks like that kind of signing. Dodo, as you say, seems a decent option but not someone who's gonna be a clear upgrade on Ola.
 
Reuniting with Big Nik and another Brazilian for the party, if Glasner has signed off on him then i'm happy. He has consistently played for 4 years at Fiorentina, league and deep European runs.
Only has a year left on his contract and isn't renewing hence the low figure, Read and co might have seemed sexy but Dodo is established.

Absolutely. Just going by the reports this one doesn't appear to change things too much. My socks aren't exactly blown off by it put it that way.

Not sure how Savona fits into this either. Maybe they move him on and there is some marginal profit in the corresponding moves.

Or Glasner doesn’t rate Aina that much….

I’ve only seen him a few times but he’s quick and fits the brief for flying forward on the break as per Glasners palace side.

Not sure his defensive qualities are quite up to snuff but he’d be part of a back 5 essentially so I’m good with it.
