Well this is ****ing **** if true, can't believe we let a talent like that go. Utterly bizarre

Took the kids to the shirt signings today and he was there. Mini Lincoln told him he needed to stay :emoticon-0153-broke
Today’s heroes so quickly become yesterday’s heroes. Charly is one of those happy, passionate people you cannot help but love.
 
The arrival of Fernandes has considerably softened the potential blow of Charly leaving for me.
Me to. Though I don’t get why we got Charly to sign a new contract loan him with a £40 option to buy, then sell him the following summer for around £13-£15 million if rumours are true?

This all sounds too good to be true!
It’s paywalled before it can really explain about him

I found this suggesting he was very highly rated two years ago. Presumably drifted a bit since : https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/vi...-links/blt85b4428d0e19d747#cs0490599e95437d25

Also found something saying wolves were interested this summer and potentially going to bid €15m. Transfermarkt has him at €5m. So his value to the deal is in that range. Which figure you pick is anyone’s guess. Not sure he’ll be loaned based on the reading

Sounds very much like Alcaraz wants to go as he won’t have much change of breaking into the first team under our style of play. Or maybe he just hasn’t settled and wants to go in general. It would explain going back to South America rather than a move within Europe or the U.K. (assuming there were offers)

Can’t imagine it’s easy to settle in southampton for a young Argentine who can’t really speak English

And we aren’t the kind of club who can just hold onto someone and keep loaning him on the off chance something works out

That said - we are getting another young South American to come over as part of the deal. So that is odd. Unless he is going on loan

Not that odd. It would be two Portuguese speakers arriving together. Something Charly didn’t have.

Although Charly, being Argentinian, speaks Spanish. I'm no expect on the two languages but my sister speaks both and they're very different from each other apparently.
 
Wasn’t there talk at the beginning of last season that the Spanish speakers had all left and Charly was struggling because of it? Caballero was one of them but I’m sure another one was mentioned as well
 
Think we’re getting pretty close to our transfer business being done?
Hopefully will get Bijlow sorted this week and sounds like the Charly swap deal plus cash will be done with Flamenco.
Lis to Goztepe as well.
Charles loaned out along with Larios and I think Tall Paul will be loaned again, along with ABL. Hope we keep hold of KWP as Saturday showed how good a player he is.
What would be the one position we need to concentrate on before window closes? For me it’s someone who can create chances and I hope we go all out for Clarke from Sunderland. If not, I think that’s where our loan deal will be done??

Just as I posted about Clarke. Piss of Ipswich but surely we can match that bid?
I thought 20m was the quote for him from earlier in the summer and presumably we didn’t want to go that high. I think to get another 15-20m signing we would need another sale which might not be done in time before Ipswich get there

Even if we did it would be down to the player. I think he’s guaranteed more game time at Ipswich as we seem to be switching between a 5-3-2 where he won’t have a role in the side and a 4-3-3 where he will. Ipswich go 4-2-3-1 where he will start on the left every game
