    The name rings a bell, didn't Sporting sign him as a teenager from I want to say Hibs, but have just checked and saw it was Dundee Utd.

    Remember him being highly rated, but until you posted WJ, haven't heard anything about him in the last few years

    Even YEP now running with Noa Lang wants to come to Prem League and Mattheus Cunha talks intensify with Leeds. Yes both players would tick 2 of the 3 boxes we have but yesterday the story was Club Brugge refusing to sell Lang (yet) and Cunha was going to the Olympics with Brazil so Bielsa doesn't want him as he would miss pre season.

    People change their minds but are the YEP clutching at straws

    Saw something yesterday about this kid who Barcelona have a £175m release clause for. He cannot break into the Barcelona first team because of Gordi Alba and spends his time out on loan since signing in 2019? Apparently he wants out of La Liga? Will they loan him out again because he may cost a wee bit too much, even accepting that buy out clauses are not real in most cases?

    Devastated!

    Just read that Kiko's contract ends in 2023. <yikes> I somehow always thought it was 2022. <wah>

    I suspect there will be no takers, so we're left with him for another 2 years. :(

    Go and break the bank and sign Renato Sanchez from Lille very impressed with him in the euros.

    Thinking exactly this just now. He would be fantastic at Bielsaball.

    He'd cost a bit. Probably looking at 50 million. Currently at Lille but Bayern paid 35 million for him a few years ago. He had poor loan spell at Swansea a few years ago but looks a bit more mature now and is only 23.

    I don't think he would come.

    Another Orta success story along with costa and the millions he wasted on u23s. Then the saga of Fat Kev still to be resolved. Orta got lucky because of Bielsa who knows better than him. So he gives him a list so he can't feck up in future.

    Agreed but I wish him luck and hopefully 3rd time lucky with ex Barcelona players. We picked up Kun in 2017 from Barcelona and then we picked up Rafa Mujica who is also out on loan in Spain and should leave us next month and now we could be buying Junior Firpo for the 1st team.

    Amari Miller has said his goodbyes to Birmingham City so it should be announced that he signs for Leedsfor £1.5m for the U23s

    Theres the defender Ive been saying we are short of, which means Huggins is now history as well as Davies. Good spot Neil :emoticon-0148-yes:
