Summer transfer window 2024 (81 Viewers)

[Winny the Bish]

Does anyone know how many of our squad spaces are being used by those who wouldn’t qualify under the work permit ‘points’ requirement? I’d imagine Torp and Sakamoto are on there, think MvE and Wright are/were fine on the points anyway.

I believe we would have 3 available. Saka could be moved to non-ESC as he's played in enough games. Torp may not have so would still count as ESC next season.

Said it after the first leg but Paris Maghoma looks really good for Bolton, on loan from Brentford.

I swear he was on trial with us at one point when he was at Brentford

Martin Braithwaite on a free transfer. Godden replacement on Palmer-esque wages.

Goals goals goals at 2nd division level.

Danish, so can kip at Torp's.

Bit of wealth too, so get him on the board.

Ticks every box really.

Bit too old at 33?

We do need a bit of experience

 

[Skyblue Bangkok]

G

Thank god. Was worried he wanted to get business done really lat

We do need a bit of experience

Godden is 33 but lost his pace now

Serious knee injuries so should fit right in

 

[Senior Vick from Alicante]

Been rumoured on twitter that we might be interested in Jack Rudoni form Huddersfield and the Preston Captain Alan Brown, dont know if he fits at 29 though, just rumours.

Preston's player of the season this year, 41 appearances, 4 goals and 4 assists.

 

[Viktor17]

Brown would be perfect, bit of grit and nasty streak. As said before wages issue would think, he's on circa 25-30k I believe at Preston.

Rudoni just not seen enough, he did ok when we beat them 3.1, end product lacking and not quite sure how quick. But they were awful as collective so hard to judge. Would trust MR and AV judgement however.

Both been mentioned for a few weeks now as had Dolan from blackburn. Tyrese Campbell released yesterday also, there's a player there.

 

[edgy]

Exodus from Blues is under way apparently.

Bacuna available, but interest from Turkey.

 

[Matt smith]

Anyone hearing Alan Browne? Doing the rounds

Rudoni isn’t helped by the lack of quality around him. Browne would be an unreal signing for us and the type of know how you need to help get you out of this division

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Nope not heard it other than 4 posts above yours mate.

 

[procdoc]

See above mate

 

[Matt smith]

See above mate

I can’t see it myself, not the type of signing we go for

I didn't realise he was on a free. Turned down a contract offer from Preston so has been released. Seems ideal replacement for Kelly (in terms of place in the squad and competition for the midfield)

 

[Gint11]

I’ve seen rumours of Browne and Rudoni too

 

[Matt smith]

Oh don’t get me wrong he’d be a great signing.

 

[Viktor17]

But exactly what we need. Team last 6 weeks has shown how soft we are/lack leaders. Robins has referenced this given we've lost Fadz/Kelly. Understand he's open to 1/2 more experienced pros also.

Id love to get this one over the line.

I imagine a fair few of the other clubs around us will also be looking at him

 

[Viktor17]

Yep agree. And a few willing to pay more per week. Hopefully the environment, Robins, what's happening off field helps.

 

[SkyB]

Saw us linked with Browne and McCallum on twitter this morning. I can get on board with both of them. Both on frees at the end of the season.

Obviously Browne's wages are an issue but would complete the midfield quartet for next season.

 

[procdoc]

A player I’d like to see us take a punt on is Sinclair Armstrong. He’s very raw but would be a good impact sub I reckon

 

[napolimp]

Would Mandroiu from Lincoln be worth a look at, as an Attacking Mid? Out of contract, assuming wages would be relatively low, 25 years old, 8 goals and 5 assists this term.

I’d definitely take McCallum back, still only 23 years old!

 

[fernandopartridge]

I’d definitely take McCallum back, still only 23 years old!

Yeah agreed, big strong lad, relatively quick and quite versatile too.

 

[procdoc]

I think we need some defenders. Paddy McNair is available, good seasoned pro at this level.
@Tea & Busquets who else could we potentially look at?

 

[Manchester_sky_blue]

Yep agree. And a few willing to pay more per week. Hopefully the environment, Robins, what's happening off field helps.

Supposedly he's turned down a substantial offer from Preston so he ain't gonna come cheap

 

[Manchester_sky_blue]

I’d definitely take McCallum back, still only 23 years old!

In a heartbeat. Would be a good upgrade on the left.

 

[Saddlebrains]

Browne is very very likely. Fantastic signing that if we can get it over the line

McCallum also edging closer

Not a bad shout but I suspect we will be looking at another Scandi player for that position

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

Browne likely? Is he interested then

 

[Manchester_sky_blue]

Browne is very very likely. Fantastic signing that if we can get it over the line

Would be very happy with both of those as a start. When you think we've also got EMC inbound that's quite exciting.

Great business if we can get both done.
