They're not that young, early-mid 20s. But yes, players who should rise in value over their time here.

By my bag of a fag packet calculations our ST sales alone have brought in £8m which is probably some kind of record.

I think £8m is a little optimistic. To get anywhere near that, we would need every non Premier League Package ticket sold to be a full price adult.

Taking into account concessions and the large number of family zone tickets that have been sold, I’d expect it to be nearer £5.5-6m.

Still a nice wedge of cash though.

So style of play at city next season, front to back ASAP, either direct to Wright and bring the rapid wing back into play .. long diagonals to wing backs balls into box early .. seems we are going to mix it up again this year

sometimes but all preseason they have been been working on a more possession based system and bring palmer in the game more.

more pace will help but we will be less direct than the end of last season

If it's a front two of Ellis and Wright then you'd have to assume this kind of approach will be the way we set up. Not sure where Sakamoto is likely to feature but his ability to beat a fullback and get the ball across the box could (in theory) work brilliantly with these two.

€9million. We are fucking massive.

Well call Jordy Hiwula up and tell him to fuck off, Haji is here with his massive gold bollocks.

Being serious… this is going to be a massive coup. Half of Europe apparently after him and we are stumping up the cash.

Rangers table £6m bid for international forward, response shared - report

Spanish giants Villarreal have had an £8.7m bid for Antalyaspor forward Haji Wright rejected, after Rangers saw their own £7m bid turned down.

Maybe Hamer doesn't want it. At least not from CCFC.

Apparently garnered interest from Brentford and Palace in the last transfer window too. Lots of clubs have sniffed around him as other have posted - Inter, Villareal, Rangers - so there's clearly something in his attributes that makes top flight clubs sit up and take notice.

Yeah, I’d rather trust various prem and decent European clubs opinions than some SBT posters. More importantly Robins and management team must be confident to spend that sort of cash, although still hoping we can keep initial fee down as much as possible….could be prem or bust at this rate !!

That Van Hooijdonk mentioned a few pages back looks great, never heard of him or this guy either, got my finger on the pulse as you can tell.

A bit uncomfortable with the kind of money being spent if I'm honest. But if he bangs in the goals and gets us promoted he'll look a bargain.

What is going on??? 7 million on a player??!! Am I dreaming? I thought DK might bring us some stability but this is just crazy. It actually makes me a little nervous spending this much.

I'm not going to hold my breath though, it seems a little farfetched.
