Transfer Rumours Summer 2025 Transfer Thread…

The obligation-to-buy activation was announced in April by both clubs so there would require another announcement to clarify that it is no longer valid. Why wouldn’t they announce that?

 

Wasn't it all announced as subject to the relevant clearances?

 

Because everything involving this transfer is looking 'a bit sketchy', we only activated Puerta's clause so that we could re-sell him for a profit, we had no intention of actually playing him.

Now any bidders will know that the transfer has gone 'tits up' so they won't want to bid anything near his true worth - they sense a bargain is to be had here and will hang out until the window closes on Monday evening. I suspect Acun think's he is entiltled to a bit of profit on any deal and behind the scenes negotiations are taking place to extract a bit of recompense from any deal.

 

Not if the transfer is void and he's still Leverkusen's player. If we were still liable for the fee and contract but couldn't register him to play him we'd be in very a poor negotiating position, but that doesn't appear to be the case.

 

Got agree on that clarification from the club would settle things, even as simple as Puerta unfortunately returned due to transfer restrictions, deal being discussed to retain Laaloui with EFL ! Until that point speculation will be rife.

 

this is proof puertas back at leverkusen

he's in lucas vasquez welcome vid

 

Whatever the situation I'm sure it suits Puerta, himself.

I'm sure we can all agree that he was **** anyway.

 

bonkers.

 

I love how there’s zero transparency at this club despite the owner pretending he’s some man of the people in constant dialogue with supporters.

 

like burstow to bolton

I hope his hand injury clears up.


The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.

 

he was s**t, that said not s**t enough to not wish we'd have kept him given different circumstances.

 

Who’s trying to work it out?

 

The club are trying to restructure it in a way that complies with the restrictions, apparently.

 

Does this now mean we can sign Puerta on another season-long loan?

 

so long as we don't have to pay a fee

 

But the pfa should still be involved in my opinion. While you say no one is restricting the player, this has dragged on since around the 1/7. The player has not played any part of pre season, that’s not good from his point of view.
He’s a young lad brought to a new country, the pfa should be in this. They should have been weeks ago speaking to the efl, so when the appeal decision was announced the players then knew were they stood and what their futures hold

 

He's not technically our player.

 

No but he’s a player protected by the pfa, there job is to represent the player….regardless of who he plays for.
