Transfer Rumours Summer Transfer window

@CR17 comes alive whenever there’s a transfer window due.

 

Exactly the kind of player we need to be moving on this summer. We have too many taking a wage and not contributing enough.

Though I don't dislike many of our current players, we're bloated with players that are either never fit enough to play or don't contribute enough when they do.

Obviously we can't sell everyone, but I wouldn't be against any/all of the below moving on this summer:

Aouchiche, Ba, Ekwah, Matete, Huggins, Anderson, Poveda, Seelt, Alese, Cirkin, Ballard, Browne and Roberts.

Some of them are very obvious, some of them can contribute to the first team if they stayed. I just think they occupy space without being available enough. In the case of the last half of the list, I think the fees we could get would be worth it.

 

Agree with majority of these, definitely a transitional summer regardless of league.

 

We had this conversation the other day

a couple of said that our midfield has a bunch of great midfielders, jobe, rigg, neil etc

but they’re not necessarily the most balanced midfield

if we sell one or two of those I’d like the money to be spent on a balance midfield, a strong 6 with a good passing range, a box to box, a proper creator etc

we would have serious funds to do that at this level

 

We say it a lot but I think this summer is our make or break

 

Ah trust me I will

 

Feels massive regardless of league. Might be more of a positive one for the fanbase if it's a PL window though

 

Remember this lads name floating around before

 

Actual scenes of CR17 transitioning when the transfer period begins

 

You younguns might not remember Thundercats but that was my favourite show as a kid.

 

The first stage so we don’t get to the final

 

I've said on here before that i'm a big fan of German football and would love us to target some players from Bundesliga 2. I think it's the closest comparison to the Championship in terms of the general standard and style of play. We've seen first hand the success Ao Tanaka has been at Leeds this season.

Rayan Philippe, 24, Eintracht Braunschweig. Can play across the front line, quick, good ball striking. Believe he's available on a free this summer.

Ransford Konigsdorffer, 23, Hamburg.
Again, can play across the front line and in the 10. Less pace than Philippe but much better technically.

Aaron Zehnter, 20, Paderborn.
Plays left wing back in a 3-4-3 shape but I think he'd be more than fine in a back 4. Superb crosser of the ball and a great engine getting up and down the wing.

Ilyas Ansah, 20, Paderborn.
Interesting profile of player, plays left wing but is 6ft4. Will probably transition into being a striker at some point.

Isak Bergmann Johannesson, 22, Dusseldorf.
Bit of an ex-wonderkid. Can play 10, 8 or 6. Scores goals from midfield which we lack and is a creative threat.

Casper Jander, 22, Nurnberg.
Probably a bit out of our reach as I see him going to a top league. Box to box midfielder.

Eric Martel, 22, Koln.
Definitely out of reach for us in the championship. Think he'll make it at the top level as a 6. Tall, defensive monster. Has played as the central CB in a 3 at times.

Daisuke Yokota, 24, Kaiserslautern (on loan from Gent).
Right winger who can play as a 10. Superb dribbler of the ball and a decent creative threat. Pressing machine.

Muhammed Damar, 21, Elversberg (on loan from Hoffenheim).
Creative midfielder with a goal threat.

Linus Gechter, 21, Hertha Berlin.
Ball playing CB. Quick for his position, think he would be a good long term O'Nien replacement.

 

Never heard of Yokota but from your description I want him.

 

Yeah 2.bundesliga is a hotbed of talent - I watch Nurnberg whenever I can and am convinced Jander is going to play for Germany, he'll be the next one in that bracket of Stach and Stiller as sort of late bloomers.

Lemperle is another I really like and out of contract - think he'll go bundesliga though.

Zehnter also one of the top LB targets for a lot of teams and apparently only £4m.

Elias Baum and a more experienced Fabian Reese id maybe chuck in too.

 

I’d be amazed if it was. The way KLD runs the club we should never reach a ‘break’ point.

 

Has Lemperle not went to Hoffenheim?

Tresoldi and Downs interest me as strikers also

 

Been rumoured forever but after Asllani's season I think they want to pursue giving him game time more. Downs great in Lemperle absence agreed.

 

If Brighton fancy loaning us Tzimas that would be nice

 

Yeah lol wouldn't be against that, still trying to find out if Lemperle has actually gone or not. No confirmation but all the rumors are it's been signed ahead of the summer for like 6months - suppose will see if that's true or not.
