Soon to be 30 year old Chuba Akpom on a loan with obligation to pay £7mil. £50k wages. Or just turned 29 year old Oli McBurnie for free. £45k wages. Wages of course are just what's being reported and not confirmed.
Crazy money for Akpom, only had one decent season hasn't he? No Ryan Giles to whip them in for him either, this time
Ajax via a loan in France. Was between Ipswich and Brum but looks like Ipswich. Brum signing some German instead.
He's been at Ajax but was on loan at Lille last season. There's a tug of war going on between Birmingham and Ipswich, Chuba wants Ipswich on loan, but Ajax want Birmingham on a permanent. He's done his medical at Ipswich.
Apart from that one season at Boro, his stats are underwhelming. Definitely wouldn't swap him for McBurnie.
Not sure where this should be shared so apologies if wrong place. A friend of mine is 4 days into a monumental challenge of walking to all 92 football league grounds in 92 days. Xavier was the Wimbledon Chairman when I was down there and has done some amazing work setting up the Don's Action Trust which has delivered thousands of food parcels to people in Merton and beyond for several years now. He has undertaken this massive challenge and I just wondered if anyone was able to support please see the link below. He is also asking people to share on social media his challenge to try and get awareness for the cause. I'm looking forward to joining him at Doncaster and doing the trip to Hull and then onto Grimsby with him. It really is a top effort. https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/wal...Mqo-tyUiYel4r3djXk_aem_MldamMPVKCJDmcYkVhOlbg
I remember Burnley doing that in the 80’s and coming to Fer Ark and I think we stuffed em 4-1? V early in the new season .
