I know a similar thing happened with Cirkin when he moved, not sure if West Ham for some reason want him to play this game before he finalises the move to us?
The time it is taking suggests a permanent deal. Ekwah hasn't played any minute since the end of October, so perhaps him playing for West Ham u21 is a good thing as he'll have had minutes under his belt ahead of signing for us next week?
Of course it’s not all true, that goes without saying, but the logic he would choose Wigan is fair... if you choose to believe reports about Gelhardt being a target. I'm not insisting any of it is accurate, I’m only commenting hypothetically on a player we’re linked to that has a lot of traction right now.
And it's LIIIIVVVVVE.... Passes some time until Burnley v WBA I suppose if anyone wants to give him a scout.
Like you said , as per reports, none of those reports have come from the club so I don't really take much notice. If you go back over the last 4 transfer windows and look at who we've been linked with and who we actually signed and a bet there are very through, however I bet more of the players we did sign were only mentioned within 2 days of us signing them. The whole reason I left RTG is because the majority of the time it's full of **** and argumentative bellends
