    Didn’t that interview take place after the alleged event where players were told to find new clubs?

    Had we made it clear he probably wouldn’t be here as we either weren’t taking up the option on the loan or told him we would flip him?

    His performances on the pitch never suggested he didn’t want to be here. I’d be making him feel as welcome as possible.

    I think it was a stomach muscle injury and not the usual?..

    We can't make a profit on him if he's not our player, it looks like it might well be Leverkusen selling him, rather than us.

    Did we pay a fee when we exercised the option to buy?

    Technically, it didn't come into effect until 1st July, by which time, we were unable to pay for anyone, so presumably it's still up in the air.

    Ok, I did wonder if we were due our money back!

    We don’t ever pay fees do we?

    He will contractually be our player. Whether we are unable to register him or not shouldn’t have any bearing on that. The fact he’s here for pre season too. If he was being sold it would surely still be us selling him.

    Agreed
    One of the few if not the only midfielder who took proper responsibility

    I don’t know if our dealings are illegal
    Maybe not
    But they’re certainly murky
    And I do not like it

    That's how I understand the situ - maybe loaning him out for a season might be a better bet and if he has a good season, puts us in a good place to profit

    Could be, although if we actually can’t register him I’d be tempted to just sell on as long as it’s not at a loss. Don’t really think we can afford to be paying for first team players to be playing elsewhere but then I’m not Acun so I have absolutely no idea of the reality of our finances. He might have a **** load of cash sitting there he’s happy to throw in, who knows.

    Why are we missing out on the profit?

    Why on earth is he on pre season with a club he's not associated with then?

    Just because we can't register him doesn't mean he isn't our player.

    Yeah, probably with a nice pay rise vs his previous contract, and a nice signing bonus too. It would be a complete mess trying to reverse all that and why would we, he or Leverkusen want to do that? If we can’t register him we can’t register him, that’s our problem.

    Exactly - while the EFL embargo restricts registration, it doesn't prevent us from signing players. Puerta is under contract, but currently ineligible to feature
