Transfer Rumours Arrivals / Departures lounges, Summer 2023.

At CM, the indications are that Lees-Melou will be replaced. Hopefully DH is right about what the aim is (post #666 above). As regards CB, for the next stab at staying in the top league we will need a left-footed, first choice option to partner Omobamidele. It would stretch credulity to believe we have the funds to bring such a player in at this juncture on anything but a loan-with-buy option basis -- unless, that is, Max is going to leave for an implausibly large sum.

 

Tzolis may return from Twente , as Tod Cantwell spent a year at Fortuna Sittard ?

 

And that was the making of him as he came back a much better player.

 

Huddersfield have confirmed he's rejoining them on loan, so that's the end of that rumour.

Not sure if it's been mentioned, but Aaron Mooy has joined Celtic, so another midfielder rumour quashed.

 

What!!!! No Hanley?

 

Fishing expedition, GE.

 

Club can confirm that Lees-Melou has left for Stade Brest on a permanent deal.
That was a quick turnaround

 

If you believe in the importance of social media, rumour has it that Normann could return after the club re followed his Instagram

 

Now that is an interesting rumour! What a deal that might be but I'm not getting my hopes up.

 

From what I have seen the club are still following him on instagram. I have no idea what that is. They are also still following Kabak and Williams, so means nothing I would guess.

 

Not fishing at all, just stating the obvious — Hanley will not be one of our first choice CBs when we next compete in the EPL.

 

Change the record ffs

 

Trying to oblige you Bure, I turned the record over to see what was on the other side -- it was an old 2020 hit called "Need to change the coach" .......

 

Recap: out Williams, Gilmour, Kabak, Normann, PLM, Tzolis ( 1 season?), Placheta (1 season?) and Zimmerman. In Sara and Hayden so far.

 

Can’t remember what club Normann was loaned from, but something tells me it was Russia?

 

Yea it was FC Rostov

 

Yet another Aaron’s transfer rumour Everton this time. This has got to be the longest running transfer rumour ever for this club?

 

I like the way Aaron's conducts himself and I think he has strong skills in a lot of areas. But I do have 2 significant concerns which are his heading and crossing ability. I think if the right offer comes in it would be in his and the clubs best interests if he moves on.

 

Ameobi?
