20 year old attacking mid who has barely played for the first team over there. If it’s true, after Blackmores comments about wanting both Carvalho and O’Riley, maybe we’ve pivoted to Fernandes and Ugochukwu
Lesley is not a similar player in any way to either Carvalho or O’Riley
 
Yeah I get that but purely from a numbers perspective we can’t have them all.

Charles looks likely to be going according to SF86, so that would leave us with Downes, Smallbone, Fernandes, O’Riley, Aribo, Ugochukwu and Alcaraz if everyone else stayed

If we get both O’Riley and Fernandes then Alcaraz is definitely off.

In this scenario the hope would be that Fernandes replaces Alcaraz as the “promising attacking mid” who hopefully fits Martins style better, and Charles comes back after a loan much improved and takes Ugochukwu’s spot when he returns to Chelsea. Definitely possible that is what the club is thinking. Very unlikely that they keep all the current midfield (minus Charles even) and sign Fernandes and O’Riley
It sounds like Alcaraz is off from the rumours of talks with Flamengo. Or we are at least entertaining bids
 
I thought we are looking for an attacking mid, an MOr alternative, S Armstrong even.
Maybe we want to upgrade on Aribo as well? It’s not clear whether or not this guy is instead of O’Riley. Seems a different type of player. But maybe the price has just got too high for O’Riley
 
We seem to want Two more midfielders.
That’s a positive sign. Wonder if that means more outgoings than just Charles and Alcaraz. Because Aribo’s wages seem too high for a club of our size to have him as a reserve. But not sure anyone will take him

Aribo is a really good midfielder, highly doubt we will sell him, a good back up for a incoming 10.

Probably a better video?

Love that the scout report says his weakness is, nothing.
