WANDERERS ran another check on Sergi Enrich last night as Neil Lennon continues to weigh up a move for the Spanish hit-man.

Out-of-contract in the summer, the 25-year-old front man was watched by the Whites in league action for Numancia at Llagostera yesterday.

He has impressed this season with 15 goals in a mid-table Segunda Division side and Lennon believes his powerful style could translate to the Championship.

Sergi has been watched on a number of occasions over the last month but is not the only name on a shortlist of strikers Wanderers are considering this summer.

Lennon recognises the need for more goals next season, particularly as the club currently look unable to match Cardiff City’s demands for a loan deal involving Adam Le Fondre.

“We don’t have a lot of money to spend but if I did, I’d be looking at a striker, a goalscorer,” the manager said.

“You look at any side that has been successful in the Championship over the last five years and they’ve had someone who can get them 15-20 goals.

“Adam Le Fondre has done well for us but he isn’t our player. It’s certainly an area I think we need to look at and improve on.”

After breaking through with the Mallorca B team and spending time on loan with Recreativo and Alcorcon, the stocky-built Sergi appears to be fulfilling the promising talent which was capped at under-19s level.

Sergi has been virtually ever-present for Numancia this season and reports in Spain hint that he is looking to play at a higher level.

It remains to be seen whether a move to England would suit the Menorcan but his salary should be well within Wanderers’ reach.

Although Lennon has previously pledged to build from the back this summer, the lack of an out-and-out striker is a concern.

Lennon has all-but agreed an extra year for Emile Heskey and is hoping to conclude a similar deal for Eidur Gudjohnsen.

But while the veteran strike-force gave his side a vital boost last season, the Whites boss needs to find a more durable spearhead for his attack who can stand up to the rigours of a 46-game campaign.

A decision is expected on Craig Davies early this week. The Wales international is out of contract and has impressed, when fit, this season.

Concern remains, however, over the hamstring problems which have seriously restricted his availability since the turn of the year.

It is hoped Zach Clough and Max Clayton will be available for the start of pre-season training.
