Various journos have come out saying basically the same thing:

We're not far off their evaluation and the player has agreed terms. It's a matter of time 👍🏻 hopefully he can hit the ground running. We really need someone that can put away all the chances we create

Edit: great summary post btw!

I agree, definitely worth doing these for briefs rather than a bunch of posts saying the same thing
