Transfer Rumours Summer 2020 ins and outs

So it's the 30th June today and if it wasn't for the enforced break in the season, contracts would be up and the transfer window opened.

However, we are where we are and it's obviously delayed this summer, but maybe a good time to put up the usual Summer Transfer Window thread - whenever that will officially start. Got a feeling lots will be happening with the financial impact of the lockdown being felt right through the divisions.

Let's go then - any rumours, info, even opinions as to who should go and who should come in, please fill your boots on this thread......

 

We have let go a few so at the moment I would stick with what we have and see what happens to the playoffs,but if we do get to the promised land I can see about 3 or 4 players wanted, and tan I know has been good with his money, but to stay up and with the premiership money we will have to buy some decent players ,and not ones for the future.

 

As you said Sparks the financial impact is going to be massive.

There are going to be some big name not on retained lists and players and agents will have to change their demands.

It's not going to be easy for the managers and clubs the impact will be felt for a few years.

 

Harris has spoken about youth and promotion from within since his arrival.
It would be nice to see a couple come through, but need to bring in a couple experienced players.
We also need to get rid of a couple experienced players. We might be stuck with a few olderplayers colin brought in. Will be dificult because of wages and we will be unlikely to get much in the way of fees for them.
Thinking Pack, Flint, one keeper, Vassell.
Those 4, plus the fact connelly, jazz and bogle have gone should allow for a few decent signings even if in the championship.
A couple loanees and a couple youngsters will give us an acceptable size squad.
Someone in the Tomlin mould, a winger and a right back.
Depending on what happens with Ward, another striker.

 

Transfer window agreed.
Going to be an unusual time.

27th July to 5th October.
Domestic transfers also 5th to 16th October (EFL loans?).

When is season due to resume?

 

Just got back in and read this remote.

From what I can understand, the 5th - 16th October period is for loans or permanent deals to be struck between Prem clubs and EFL clubs only. No loans or transfers will be allowed between Premier League clubs after 5th October.

 

Would you still want him and put in a rival bid quickly, or wait and see where we are in a few weeks time?

Reckon we'd have to wait and see now.

Moore has some decent attributes but not sure he'd be quite up to the task in the Prem if we were to somehow sneak up this year.

Think Glatzel would do OK in the top flight provided we could give him a decent supply line rather than lots more "backs to the goal" stuff he's endured to date.

TBH think I'd rather us chase someone like Glen Murray or Pukki if we go up and have to find another front man.
Not fresh, nor pretty but experienced and probably able to drag Bobby G along with them.

 

Didn't want him before and still don't. Subtle as an air raid and not how we are progressing.

 

It's a no from me too, I think that Glatzel is a better bet.

 

Agreed. Glatzel will be a far better player for us next season from what he's learned during this one.

Especially if Harris plays the sort of game that suits him. Quick balls on the floor in front of him instead of launching it to him in the air with his back to goal - that's not his game.

 

Didn’t want him in January and don’t want him now.
He’ll do a decent job at a championship club though.

 

Gunter not offered a new contract and released by Reading - available on a free.

Would you have him?

 

Was 31 last week.

Possible as a back up but not first choice. Wage requirements key.

Only played for Reading 13 times this season. Fitness issues?

On balance a no from me. He needs to drop a division to carry on playing.

 

I just thought I'd put it out there......

I agree. He's still got something to offer, but it's time to move forward not backwards.

 

Think there's a balance to be had.
We need some experience, and it would be good to have a few more locals in the team, but we should be looking to introduce younger players to the side to grow our 'new style'.
Gunter would suit our style and add experience. We do need another right back. As said, wages are likely to be an issue.

 

I think he could still do a good job for a championship side, 31 is not too old 2 or 3 more years in him.

That said not for us.

Being in the playoffs messes with the summer transfer window at the best of times.
Trying to line up players when you dont know what division you'll be in is going to be a nightmare.
Its going to be harder than ever for the team going up through the playoffs to stay up.
