Default Towering player

Hey guys, I coach Leeds and next season(3rd one) we'll be playing in the Premiership. Bogdan Stancu has left a gap in my attack force when he left for Arsenal so I have to replace him.

This is what I need :

A towering striker, tall guy, great heading, jumping, strength. You might think ...sure, there's plenty of telegraph poles out there, but I also want some finishing, composure, pace and acceleration (not the main attributes, as I will play him target striker and most of the balls will go to his head, but if he can't shake the defenders, he's no good then).

What I need him for:

1.Goals from corners; as you well know, a towering, aerial powerhouse will score you a lot of goals from set pieces, especially corners, if used correctly.
2.Target man; he must be able to play alone up front. I will use him with a playmaker providing passes in front of the goal and two pushed up wingers to provide crosses for his amazing heading skills.

Now the trick is, he must be willing to join my Leeds side, remember I'm in the 2nd season in Championship, 3rd one will be in Prem. Money's no problem as I have about 11M right now from transfers.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

p.s. also if you happen to know a towering DC that doesn't lack in the acceleration, pace and concentration department, willing to join me..

for a target man get Rukavina he is class, or Mandzukic who is also top notch, Liviu Ganea also does an excellent job

Thanks a bunch, will try that guy Rukavina, looks good. Unfortunately, I doubt Zigic will trade Valencia for Leeds :) and I couldn't find Mandzukic (I play with a huge database, maybe you misspelled it?)

Savaltore's always bagged loads of headers for me,he plays for Sampdoria.He's 6'4 and you can probably get him for 6-8m.20 for penalties too.

Salvatore Foti's co owned by another team and I can't even bid for him at the moment and no trace of Manzukic anywhere. Thank you anyway for sharing.

I did find a good prospect, wonder if anybody knows a bit about him. I would use the FM scout but that's just cheating, so if you've got a game in a later stage and cand look him up, thanks.

Default I have 3

I have # such players my first one was -

Name: Dalibor Veselinovic
Born: 21 September 1987
Position: Fc
Height: 198
Club: OFK Beograd
Value: Around 2 mil
Work permit needed/not needed: needed

he did a good job for me.

My second one was -

Name: Georgios Samaras
Born: February 21, 1985
Position: St
Height: 193
Club: Man City or Celtic
Value: Around 5 mil
Work permit needed/not needed: not needed

A bit better than Dalibor.

And my third and the best one was -

Name: Henok Goitom
Born: September 22, 1984
Position: St
Height: 195
Club: Real Murcia
Value: Around 5 mil
Work permit needed/not needed: not needed
and he's got everything you asked "tall guy, great heading, jumping, strength, finishing, composure, pace and acceleration"

Also I did not use him but I heard he's good -
Andy Carroll, January 6, 1989, 199cm, Newcastle United

Hope one of this guys will do good for you. So reply me if you like someone.

Thank you for the answer Nestor, I checked them out. I can't find Dalibor, but Henok Goitom looks good and Andy Carrol even better. I think I might be able to sign Carrol soon. Thanks for the tip mate.
