Bringing in Ekitike to fill the 2nd striker role, that I believe Pedro was destined for, would be insane. With the fees involved however, I think it highly unlikely. Maybe if we had funds for Pedro, we could direct those to Ekitike and hold fire on Trafford to make up the shortfall? If Burnley go down again, we could get Trafford for less next summer...
That keeper was only for €4m, likely a makeshift but not Trafford quality. I suspect Burnley would accept around a £40m loan fee and not much less at this point. May have more luck with a down-payment on a transfer this summer with the rest to be made next and Trafford loaned ba k to Burnley for the season. In reality, Burnley would much rather keep Trafford there I think, so no "creative" deal is likely to be too successful
Weiss played in the German equivalent league. First team player. Doubt he signed to chill on the bench
This makes no sense whatsoever. Let’sdo a buy him now and pay later…. But pay for it now on amortisation, and loan him back to a club that’s going to get ****ed more times than Bonnie blu, to then bring him next year when he’s worth £3.75 despite paying £40m this year??????
Thought they just couldn’t play in same competition as Lyon so they have been downgraded to conference league. Don’t see the issue - it’s clearly stated in the rules. Main problem once again though is that the rules aren’t being interpreted in the same way for each club.
Just wait till it comes out who the other shareholders have a stake in (Brondby) and they get kicked out conference n all
