Transfer Rumours The Summer “Have We Signed Anyone Yet?” Thread

So nothing new aside from the fact we are open to offers for Boufal - which I think is a bit of a shame.

Would also be a shame to miss out on Che Adams.

Also interesting that they quote 5 players to leave with no mention of Austin.

 

I wouldn't read too much into that, just seemed to me like they listed the 4 high earners who are out on loan and said we are open to selling them, not really a surprise.

Would still expect a few of the players who were in the squad last season to be available as well.

 

As it is Wilson it is more than likely that this has come directly from the club.

 

Rumour that we have put in an offer for Bryan Mbeumo...French striker plays for Troyes. Young (19) short arse (5'7) so sounds perfect for us.

 

Austin is definitely a player we want rid

 

That much is clear, just wondering whether he is included in the "5" we want out.

 

Didn’t say Adams bid was rejected. Just not accepted.....yet

Gone a bit quiet recently, we still in for Goiginger?

 

We want more than 5 if we can do it, Ralph wants a total change. It's at least 5

Not heard anything to update

 

"... the club have offered a deal worth around £14m for Birmingham’s Che Adams. This has not been accepted and, with Birmingham caretaker coach Pep Clotet currently assessing his squad following the sacking of Garry Monk, Southampton are now considering alternative options."

That's got 'call my bluff' written all over it in the hope that Birmingham will see the Telegraph for having the direct line out of Saints that we know they have. Do they have over offers? Can they hold out? Does Che really want to come here and will he push from his end?

 

More than 5 first team? I would t count people like Clasie as first team

I'd count first team as anyone who would count towards the 25 man squad ... though that is obvious open to interpretation!

 

That’s over 10

 

Yep, been saying it for ages

 

I doubt they will name individual players leaving until they go

 

This in the Times tells it’s own story - surely?

 

Even after two shockingly bad seasons, I'm still proud we are bottom of that chart!
Life of a Saint.

 

Yep it sure tells me what a good job MP2 was doing.

 

Can take anything from stats...there are several clubs there who had a net spend far higher than ours and still got relegated.

 

I think that’s the point Fran. We’re cheap, but we’re not quite trash.
