Figured should probably have their own thread, as the Summer 2023 one is best left focused on Forest.
Anyway, Wolves have sold Neves to a Saudi team for 47M. It's strong money but I don't think he'll be easy to replace. I remain optimistic that Wolves could struggle this season.
That's really odd because I thought he was out of contract.
Are the Saudi's buying into Wolves? That would depress me. Although that would make me hate them more.
Chelsea seem to be money doping too by accepting Saudi money for some of their castoffs to beat FFP. Shiiiiiiiiittttt! I was hoping for a massive Chelski meltdown and them being forced to sell some of their young talent on the cheap.
Stupid game.
Chicago: Feeling ill.
One year left, apparently.
Lavia close to joining Arsenal. Everyone seems to rave about him but the couple of times I've watched Southampton I can't say he particularly shone for me.
19, so I guess you are mostly buying potential. If they get Rice as well, I guess he won't be playing every game.
Interesting that City had a buyback next summer that no longer applies.
Percy: #BristolCity transfer news - Derby have rejected 2 bids for midfielder Jason Knight, the latest at around £1.5m. Getting closer. Birmingham are also in talks with #dcfc over a permanent deal for Krystian Bielik of up to £1m #bcfc
Spurs may be moving on from Raya because Brentford are asking 40M for a not world class goalie with one year left on his deal.
Derby have made a couple of signings and I can't even mock them because I have no idea who they are. A winger on a free from Peterborough and backup goalie from Rotherham.
It all sounds a bit David Friio Rund Pedersen to me.
But not as, ahem, marquee.
City sign Kovacic, Arsenal about to sign Havertz, Ziyech, Mendy, Koulibaly and Kante going to Saudi, Mount probably going to Man U. Chelsea are selling everything that isn't tied down.
Hopefully something similar (albeit lower priced) is about to happen here because, depending on how you count, I reckon we already have 37 for our 25 man squad before we add any new signings.
Chelsea have to fix their FFP compliance issues before the end of the month, don't they?
Some extra punctuation may be needed to clarify the number of players Arsenal are about to sign compared to the number going to Saudi.
Extra, or different? I have a well stocked bag of apostrophe's, if anyone wants some.
Gundogan to Barca. Feels like a big loss for City.
I like a grammactically nonsensical question mark though?
A scorer of important goals. Hard to replace, I would imagine. But CIty have made this sort of call before and done "ok".
