In Antonio Barreca (loan) Miguel Almiron (Club Record Signing) Out Cal Roberts - Colchester Loan Joseph Yarney - Chesterfield Loan Jacob Murphy - WBA Loan Achraf Lazaar - Sheff Wed Loan Rolando Aarons - Sheff Wed Loan
To be honest it has been a very confusing day. Is it actually Transfer Deadline Day? I only ask because something is actually happening - not the obligatory 23hrs of tedium and boredom all wrapped up with a big bow of disappointment about 22:59.....
I really hope there is a new winger coming in, one worthy of the title. Sadly Joselu has been quoted as saying that it looks like he'll be staying put.
Can anyone confirm that Jacob Murphy has been sent out on loan to West Brom? https://www.skysports.com/football/...est-brom-medical-ahead-of-loan-from-newcastle
Yeah, he's gone. No more incomings for us either apparently. Almiron is being viewed as the replacement.
It is being reported Barclays have provided the funding for today's deal. This is pretty common practice across the league, but I thought we had to pay everything cash, upfront, out of profit? What are we holding out hope for now? A backup striker better than Joselu? A midfielder better than Hayden? A winger better than Atsu?
Murphy, Aarons and Lazaar all confirmed as leaving 5 mins before the window closes. Conspiracist in me says left it late to confirm 3 out going so they couldn't be replaced. Optimist in me says that there might be a deal there no one knows about. Although realistically Lazaar has been replaced by Barreca and Murphy by Almiron.
