There's a few reports going about suggesting that Kazaiah Sterling will be allowed to leave this summer Honestly it wouldn't be a surprise after he's lost a whole season due to the incompetence of Doncaster's medical team, coupled with his dropping down the pecking order behind Parrott and Etete
Today's random link, Taurine FC Salzburg's 19-year old Hungarian midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai I mean technically it's possible that he doesn't simply get loaded onto the conveyor belt aimed in Leipzig's direction, as Erling Haaland and Takumi Minamoto weren't back in January, but he really looks like someone the Taurine Empire will keep hold of until Leipzig inflate his value even higher
He's allegedly from Székesfehérvár. Are we sure that he's not made up and someone didn't create all this by randomly bashing their keyboard?
Had him in a save on fm19, at first I thought he was a regen (newgen) but apparently he’s highly rated Last I heard, Arsenal were looking at him
They appear to sign a right-back every season, so it might well be. They seem to be suggesting it's because of Paul Mitchell, though: https://www.skysports.com/football/...naco-interested-in-signing-tottenham-defender
Quite surprised I find myself saying it but I'd rather hang on to Aurier at the moment, unless we sign two RBs which I can't see happening. Selling our only RB doesn't make sense, even if he is an erratic mess defensively a lot of the time. In his defence though, he has been pretty impressive going forward this season, only Trent has more assists than him from RB and in the last two games hasn't looked completely ****ing stupid barring one silly pass in his own area.
He’s definitely improved under Jose but he’s still a liability If it’s good money and the club can find 2 RB then sell him but other areas of the squad need sorting before RB right now
We definitely need a RB but at this stage I think we’re probably looking at one of Aarons (Norwich) or Ferguson (WBA) to compete with Aurier. Priorities are IMO a starting defensive midfielder, RB, then a backup/development CB and striker in that order. That’s based on us losing Foyth and KWP. I imagine we’ll need a 3rd choice goalie unless we decide to promote Brandon Austin or Alfie Whiteman. At this stage Højbjerg, one of the RBs, that young Korean CB playing in China and some sort of backup forward for Kane looks like where we could go in my opinion, and though it’s not headline incomings or major surgery, it’s a solid enough list of additions that look like solving a fair few issues for us. No idea who the forward will be, Willian doesn’t fit the bill for me but Jose likes him.
Austin > Whiteman but I'd rather keep Whiteman as third for next season and have Austin go on loan again to further build his experience. I think Austin could be a dark horse as a potential first team member of some capacity in the future, whether that be as a number one or two GK. Think Aarons is our first choice, especially as Ferguson still seems likely to join Palace. Still not overly sold on Hojbjerg tbh. Has some good qualities/ characteristics but I just don't see him at the same level as Parker/ Sandro/ Wanyama when they all joined. Hope I'm wrong. Would love for us to challenge Arsenal for Partey though, that guy is phenomenal, Tripps could even have a word. Think I'd rather an experienced head at CB. Even with Foyth possibly going we have Tanganga plus ***an-Walcott coming through. With Jan off and Toby losing his place, he may want out to ensure he preserves his Euro's spot and so someone like Godin/ Silva would be pretty ideal. Though if the money's there or we can raise the funds, someone like Ruben Dias would be great. I'm hoping a few strikers will be available in the window. If Bournemouth and Norwich go down we can look at Wilson, King and Pukki. I've banged the Ollie Watkins drum god knows how many times, PNP mentioned Mitrovic the other day who'd be a good shout and I'm sure there's strikers abroad too who are perhaps in similar situations as Wilson/ Pukki.
Aarons has potential to be top class, the other names you mention don’t really excite me or make me feel like they could help the club win a trophy or even get back to top 4
