Transfer Rumours Summer 2025 Transfer Thread…

i guess they probably wont allow us to sign someone on 50k a week

it does sound confusing though, where is the line?

im sure the club know but still

 

Cooper who ?

 

I guess it means it can be as high as we want in theory but they’ll not let us go crazy on single players? Doesn’t seem to be much difference though

 

Why would we want a barrel maker?

 

Could be more of a total weekly wages. Get rid of Burstow, Jones, McL, Omur and increase our wage headroom as such that we can afford McBurnie as well as cheaper winger alternatives for example

 

I agree, its probably wages as % of turn over, with a fixed cap say 120%

 

Baz

 

It would be funny to see all the people saying Drameh isn’t good enough losing their **** that we sold him

 

In the sand.

 

The article actually says that although the cap has been lifted, in practice the PSR restrictions mean that it won't make a huge difference to what we can have as a salary budget.

 

We already have a roofer and flour maker.
Midfield and winger

 

Haven't you heard? Acun says anyone that wants to leave can go. For a successful businessman I'm not sure he understands how to play hardball.

 

And, at one time, an arrow maker.

 

I don’t think this is particularly a bad thing, if anything it makes us an easier to club to sign for with players knowing they won’t be stuck here if another opportunity arises.

 

What he says in public and what he does in private could be different?

 

That's fine, but as soon as you publicly announce that anyone can leave you give away your first negotiating chip. It's the difference between putting your house on the market and someone knocking on your door pleading with you to sell.

 

Yes like when he says the club finances are fine but in reality they're ****ed

 

Up until the outcome of his court case in May no club would take a risk on him last year

 

If it was really the case that anyone who wanted out can leave regardless of financials, then this time last year we wouldn't have had virtually any senior pros on the books.

When we have sold players for lowball offers it's because we've had to for PSR/cashflow reasons.

 

Cant spell Macca Greggsy?
