Hereford United are understood be close close to signing a new striker. Should the addition to Graham Turner's squad be made, it will be the first "new" player to sign on for the League campaign. Wayne Brown, recently made a permanent squad memeber, was the first signing after a year long loan deal at Edgar Street after he transfered from Chester City.
The forward is said to be in the "Guy Ipoua mould" and so a big powerful player is expected. Hopefully the player will be more lucky with injuries than Ipoua was and will put in more games throughout the course of the season. A player in that build gives an alternative option in attack which, with Stuart Fleetwood and Andy Williams already contracted to the club, may well compliment the two youngsters style of play.
The signing has, though, not been confirmed as Turner is away until tomorrow. It is thought though that the player will put pen to paper soon after Turner's return. Rumours have previously suggested that Leo Fortune-West had been a target for Hereford, but again it is not know whether he is the unnamed striker in question.
