Transfer Rumours The Summer 2026 Samaritans Sponsored Transfer Window Thread

£120k a week for 4 years is certainly not "free"

And far too much

And far too much

Agree. He has had a good last six months. The rest of his career has been pretty "meh".
29 aswell so in the new world of SCR he is going to have no resale value

Hoped we'd have done something by now. Didn't necessarily expect us to, but was hoping to be surprised.

I don't think we'll have a first team player of note by the time they come back for training. I don't even think they have a preseason schedule worked out.

On. A. Free. That’s commonly used terminology for a free transfer.

Well versed in how the wage structure that supports such deals goes…

Thanks for another stellar contribution, Einstein.

Linked to Ouedraogo
Never heard of him. I assume a winger?

 

[Roland Deschain]

Just lost another from recruitment, oliver slater has gone to everton.

The link to Cody Gakpo is an interesting one, if there's any substance to it.

I think he's primarily a CM.

I think he's primarily a CM.

And secondary?

 

[Eddie's British Plodders]

And secondary?

DM and LW apparently.

So Joelinton?

 

[jimileysbaldhead]

So Joelinton?

Hopefully but less of a liability.

Selling players does not concern any Sunderland fan. This regime has done it for years and years and we have got better with each sale. He is on a 5 year contract so if its true (which it wont be) we will get an absolutely ridiculous amount of money for him. When you have one of the best recruitment teams in the country player sales dont worry you. When you dont you end up spunking hundred of millions on dross like Wissa, Elanga and Woltemade

You're going to sell all your best players and get relegated

 

[Lord_Rowell]

You're going to sell all your best players and get relegated

Of course we are.

However you wanna look at it they are paying alot of cash for somebody who has had one decent six month spell in the last few years

I get the impression anyone that doesn't agree with the Howes is forced out...

I hope that applies to this board....

I think it has tbf... GG has gone and he absolutely hated Howe.

 

[Munson.]

Of course we are.

I know you're... Btw don't be alarmed, but I said we would when we finished 5th under Pardew.... Some things are obvious.

I will happily have a £100 bet with you where the winner donates to the other person's favoured charity that Sunderland wont get relegated.

Lets see how "obvious" you really think it is...
