Transfer Rumours Summer Transfer window

Lucumi has just been spotted house hunting in Hendon.

 

I thought he'd want to be up next to the French lads in the French quarter of Sunderland.... Palyon lol

 

is RLB presser today?

surely we will get an update today?

 

Never ever take RLBs answers as gospel. He always underplays everything and gives nothing away. The bloke said he wasn’t sure if we would sign a CB before West Ham and we signed one the next day. Then when asked about any signings being close he said he didn’t know and then Mukiele signed the next day haha

 

This, does anyone know when it is?

 

There was a quote from one of the more prominent transfer journalists (can’t remember who, sorry) early in the window on a podcast or suchlike that we basically had the French market sewn up. With that in mind, despite the Francophile nature of a lot of our recruitment I’m a little surprised we haven’t directly acquired more Ligue 1 talent considering the distressed state of their league.

 

Issue is all the ones we want are at Strasbourg, and them PSG and Paris FC are wedged

I do think there’s potential for more from that league but if you look at where we are squad wise now we are into the ‘next tier’ realistically.

We have been shouting all summer for Bakwa who seems a perfect fit, he’s likely the most likely we could ‘do now’.

I’d be stunned if we haven’t had an eye on Akliouche, Camara, players like that but they in the 40 plus bracket.

We will absolutely have eyes all over that league.

I feel we will retain some spending power for January, and if we look likely to stay up we can level up who we target that stage.

 

Hope he says nothings close then

 

Yeah I'm a little surprised at the lack of ligue 1 signings tbf. Wish we would sign Bakwa

 

Eze to Arsenal knocks Trossard down the pecking order. Would be a great if somewhat over ambitious signing.

 

Tin hat on but I wouldn't want him here. Vastly overrated.

 

I’m sure he just signed a new deal so assume he’s staying now

Shame because I think he would’ve been a great signing but probably too expensive wages wise

 

He's going to Chelsea is he not

 

Agree, not a fan

 

Arsenal
24/25 - 38 Games, 8 goals, 7 assists
23/24 - 32 games, 12 goals, 1 assist
22/23 - 20 games, 1 goal, 10 assists

Brighton
22/23 - 16 games, 7 goals, 2 assists
21/22 - 34 games, 8 goals, 3 assists
20/21 - 35 games, 5 goals, 5 assists
19/20 - 31 games, 5 goals, 3 assists

overrated?

 

What’s with their lack of signings?

They’ll win the league again but could be so much better with investment.

 

Mental isn’t it ha, he’s absolutely quality

 

Not keen either. Talented, but has had a few strops when things didn't suit him. Getting on anarl
