Bulls may offer Bauza further Deal

Guillem Bauza's current deal ends shortly but nothing has yet been confirmed about any extension to his spell with Hereford United.

The striker was looking to put himself in the shop window when he signed for the Bulls after being released by Swansea.

Simon Davey, then manager, was pleased with the arrival of the Spaniard.

"He's a player of good calibre but he lost his way," said Davey. "He's a good acquisition for us. He's player who will bring a goal threat. Not only that he's a creator."

Bauza proved the point with a penalty at Bury on his debut on September 18th.

Buaza broke into the Bury penalty area and as he shaped to shoot from about 8 yards had his leg hooked away by Picken. The Spaniard grabbed the ball himself and coolly side footed passed Belford.

Although that's the only goal he has scored to date, he has been provider for others on several occasions.

However it's questionable just how fit he has been at times as he had a spell out during late October and November with a groin injury.

He came on as a sub in the away game at Stockport on October 30th after missing the previous game against Accrington. However it was too soon.

"Maybe we forced him a little bit, he's just tweaked it again," said manager Jamie Pitman after the game.

He played no part in any game until the visit to Shrewsbury on November 23rd and then only as a sub.

When Bauza arrived at Edgar Street it was felt he was looking for a position with a higher level club. It was also noted that he was studying at Swansea University so would not want to be based too far away.

However, as yet, he probably hasn't done enough to attract interest from elsewhere.

So, always assuming Jamie Pitman and Lennie Lawrence feel he's worth another deal, it looks as though he might stay to the end of the season.

And, hopefully, Bauza's best is still to come.
