Zan Vipotnik

[Dr. Winston]

Hasn't Idah scored something like four goals in five starts?

Four in under 700 minutes I read the other day.

Two different types of striker. Idah seems to be more agile / mobile than Vip but can he convert that into goals over a season. The service Vip gets is mediocre at best but he’s a goal machine.

Swansea have placed a £15m price tag on Slovenia striker Zan Vipotnik, 24, who leads the Championship goalscoring charts and has attracted interest from Brighton. BBC

Just the usual unfounded gossip

Talking to my mate last night about him, and he reckons if he goes , he will got abroad, probably Germany

Forget the goals for a minute -is it just me or has the quality of Vip's hold up play and first time lay-offs also improved dramatically just lately?
That Leicester goal showed a different dimension to his game as well.I think we should be looking for 20 million plus - at his age and with a long contract extension.

Confidence will do a lot for a player. He’s eager for the ball and confident with it at his feet - something he wasn’t doing last season

Think he would suit the German/Italian leagues - slower pace and more time - think he would struggle in the Prem

You would expect that his agent ensured a trigger clause in his new contract.
Who knows what that figure is?

His one touch layoffs and passes out wide have been improving consistently over the whole season and are becoming a genuine feature of his game

I would have valued him at £15m in Jan. Got to be £20m+ now

As much as I want us to get every penny we can for Vipotnik if we do sell him, I'd say his agent would have been doing a terrible job for his player (and the agent's own bank account) if he advised him to sign a new contract here that didn't feature a realistic release clause.

Exactly.
Whatever that figure is, is the amount that we'll get.

Zan Vipotnik: Championship striker 'out-performing' Harry Kane

In my opinion, this is why we have to sell this summer when we can get the most possible for him.

"Because Vipotnik is out-performing an xG of 11.61 by 9.39 goals. In other words, he's scored at least nine more goals than statistics would suggest."

There is every chance he reverts to a more normal scoring rate. From what I have seen, I would bet on Idah outscoring him next season if they both stayed. Will always remember this year though, some of the purest finishes you will ever see. Has been great to have him firing like this.
