Because apparently Rudes turned down the chance to sign him and he is a Westie. 

It's not happening.

Honestly, I'm not so sure. He's 20 with 40 games under his belt. Anywhere he goes in europe would be a risk of missing out on signifcant game time. Selection for the world cup is wide open and scoring another 25+ league goals before 2026 would put him way up there for selection. We already know he's frustrated missing out on minutes, and Wanderers can offer him 26+ full games if he's fit

I've got a feeling we're trying to bring Adrian Segecic here to replace Milanovic. 

Do u think he'd do well in Staj's system?

Do u seriously think we're in with a chance to bag him?

Does he have an ego?

Definitely has an ego. He'll fit just fine and I have no doubt we can offer him what he needs for the next 12-24 months to get a signature. He's still only 20. Both Segacic and Botic need to cook a little longer

They confirmed Ugarkovic a couple of months ago.

Sorry, I read this wrong. It's an RBTV rumour from a couple of months ago. They are usually on the money with their news.

I understand signing Carlucio and Al-Taay as injury cover for the rest of the season, but why did we need to sign them for next season as well? Just eating up cap space for next season, even if they are on peanuts. Could have put it towards up and coming youth players.

Or ending up in an insignificant league. 

When Baby Baccus joined St Mirren in the SPL it looked like a great move on paper, but I very much doubt that had he Mansfield Town in League One in mind. It is to be seen if Mila can make his mark at Aberdeen (if that transfer really happens).  

Or they have a Gersbach experience who left the AL as an 18 yo, and in the following 8 years played for for 7 clubs in 6 different countries. While it might have been an educational experience, it most certainly killed off any NT aspiration he might have had. But at least Gersbach had a career of sorts. Less can be said about Bruce Kamau. The list goes on. Nuff said.
