Transfer Rumours Summer 2025 1 - 10 June, 16 June - 1 September

^^This, Moan all we want about the potential upcoming performances, but SR have given us the tools to do a good job

 

To be fair, I am a bit worried we may get promoted this year now.

 

Yeah, I don't think we can blame SR for not trying this time. We have a whole new midfield... Who would've thought this a week ago?!

 

Azaz is 10!

 

Shows how much attention I am paying!

 

Think this was said after last summer window as well

 

Tbf it’s a lot to keep up with this part is always fun because until they’ve proven otherwise they’re all brilliant new signings

 

I remember being excited about that Danish winger we loaned and Cornet. D’oh!

 

Any news on where Aribo is off to? Would have expected him to sign for a club by now considering he's been available all summer

 

Disappointing that it doesn’t sound like anything is happening with the players we want to shift yet. Particularly if we need to shift BBD and Edozie to bring in Scienza. I’m guessing that Edozie didn’t want to go abroad again? Given he supposedly had multiple overseas clubs come in for him a month ago.

 

I heard this week that Edozie is now very close to being gone but yet, he is still here...

Sargent to Ipswich? Think the Norwich fans would flip on this one, and rightly so.

 

The signings so far have had almost everything in common: they're all tall and athletic.

 

He has 258 followers. #windupmerchant

 

So, was just thinking... given we what know about Still's preference to play 4-2-3-1, this feels like a likely look at our squad 'depth chart' when the window shuts. Caveat: yes, obviously some can cover other positions etc... I've just put them where I think it's plausible we see them

--

Still to move:

Bree, Taylor, Aribo, Smallbone, Edozie, Brereton Diaz

25 man squad

GK
Bazunu
McCarthy
Long

RB
Roerslev
Jelert

CB
Harwood-Bellis
Stephens
Wood
Quarshie
Edwards

LB
Manning
Welington

CM
Downes
Charles
Jander
Sesay

RW
Fellows
Armstrong

AM
Azaz
Matsuki

LW
Robinson
Fraser

ST
Archer
Downs
Stewart

 

I doubt all 6 of those players move.

 

Me too. So you could end up with a squad of 26-27, which isn't awful - especially considering Sesay can drop back down to the 21s for a bit

 

Wouldn't mind keeping Aribo in that scenario to add some depth.
Also potentially adding another winger too when BBD and Edozie are both sold, and If that happens then our team is hugely favoured to go up really... we'd have quality all over the pitch and in decent depth too.
