Hmm weird one. Turner seems like a decent second choice keeper.

Not sure Raya would be happy as Ramsdales understudy.

I think it would be a shrewd move if Arteta pulls it off, because I think Ramsdale needs some competition.

Don’t get me wrong I love him as our keeper, but I think he needs somebody pushing him for that no1 spot to keep him sharp and on his toes.

I saw some ‘ITKs’ say that internally not everyone at the club is fully convinced Ramsdale should be the #1 goalkeeper for the foreseeable future. Maybe they have a point? Raya won’t be cheap and he won’t be coming here to sit on the bench.

With Turner in talks over a permanent move to Nottingham Forest, we must be expecting him to be replacing Ramsdale in the starting XI.

For what it’s worth, I wouldn’t have thought this would be a priority position that needs reinforcing, but I guess the club have a different idea.

I guess this could actually be happening then. Really wouldn’t have expected this a few days ago. Guess that’s the nature of the transfer market though. Things can accelerate fast and out of nowhere.

Hope we’ve got a sell-on clause. I know we’ve made a tiny profit on him, but £5m is absolutely peanuts.

Even contract termination will free up a lot of wage amortisation innit? Rich clubs are more FFP limited with wages than fees these days the looks of it.

Yeah but we will still have to be pay a big lump sum to get rid which isn’t ideal. Even if it’s just £5m - £10m, I’d prefer to get a tiny fee to make our books look a little bit healthier. We spent £72m on this guy, recouping nothing at all would be a grave disappointment.
 
Lokonga’s move to Burnley will be a loan with an option to buy. Interesting.

Didn’t Spurs offer more than this and it got rejected? I’m not convinced this bid will be enough.

I wonder if we’ll get a fee for him.

Anything would be good. And the saving of whatever crazy wage he’s on which is likely to be £100k+ per week
