Norwich City have announced that they have signed Dynamo Kiev striker Dieumerci Mbokani on loan for this season
The deal includes the option to buy, and is confirmed pending a work permit that is yet to be completely sorted.
City boss Alex Neil said: “Dieumerci is going to give us competition at the top end of the pitch, and I think we’ve needed a bit of strengthening there.
“He’s a big, strong number nine – he can take the ball in, he’s mobile and he’s a real threat in the box. We’re hoping all of those things come together for him.
“He’s got a good track record and he’s played Champions League football, so I think it’s an exciting signing for us.”
