Transfer Rumours Summer 2024

This one will go tits up.

I'd take JWP back, partly for the hard work and set pieces, and if we could sign Downes & Toni Kroos as well it would look at first glance like we had the same player three times. Imagine the bants.

 

I don't see JWP coming back. But if there is any truth in it, I would hope that we give it a good go to get him back.

 

Besiktas want Onuachu too. Judging from the amount of interested parties I think we should get a decent fee for him this summer.

 

I think it is such a shame we never saw wee man and tall paul on the pitch together.

 

Speaking of Fraser, has there been much news about his deal being made permanent? Sounded like it was something the club were keen on

 

I imagine much like with Adam Lallana they are probably set to be announced in July.

 

Something to look forward to then

 

That would be just weird

 

Another page in the Echo perhaps!

 

If we’re restricted on budget then it’s Downes > JWP.
But if money isn’t an issue then I couldn’t think of a better realistic box to box midfielder option than JWP.

Anyway, a striker, a goalkeeper and the retention of Downes or an alternative CDM are all bigger priorities over a midfielder.

Fraser as a LWB is ok, but with if we’re not loaning out Dibling or SAA, then I wouldn’t want the wee man to uncharacteristically take up too much space.

 

Our former player Yan Valery is off to Sheffield Wednesday apparently.

 

Would make sense. I expect that's the Danny Rohl connection

 

Another ex player apparently returning, Fonte weighing up a move to us apparently

Our scouting videos seem to have been switched with archives of Saints games over the last decade

 

If it helps us bring in talented Portuguese players, I am for it!

 

I was trying to figure out how that one would come about and then remembered Danny Rohl

 

I'd imagine there will be some sort of coaching offer attached to any deal, possibly with the academy.
