At 24, we’re right on the cusp of possiblity here, and given he’s scored in Europe before during a loan spell in Austria, I’d suspect he’s more likely to be on the radar of Championship clubs. After all, not only has he played for Copenhagen, his parent club, but also Wolfsburg and current Fehervar in Hungary.
Why have I picked him? He does love getting on the ball and beating players: 5.66 dribble per game in 2023/24, 53.7% success rate. He’s a ball carrier, and whilst he has played centre forward, he’s also played in the Bishop/Mandroiu position as well. That makes him a potential signing, even if a bit of an ambitious one.
Also, don’t forget Wigan had Paul Makairu on loan from Copenhagen, so there is an outside chance players from the upper reaches of the division could come to League One.
