Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window (27 Viewers)

[Skyblue Bangkok]

Sounds to me like we had committed to spending on Woolfeden & Goddo. Strasbourg have offered silly money so we have decided to go all in for Hughes. I think we end up with Hughes & a prem loan for the forward, we’re at that point in the window where clubs will consider loans for players they wanted to sell - e.g. Sarmiento at Brighton

Transfer fees seem to have shot up again right across European leagues especially.

Seems like perhaps a 3 rd bid of £10 million has been turned down.

 

[Martw]

THink we will get 1 and MVE wont leave

Be happy with that

Makes the KHH deal look good value for money

 

[StrettoBoy]

We will add in Brad Collins.

Give Hull a choice.

£12 million plus £3 million in add-ons or £25 million plus Collins.

 

[Incognitocov]

Both very clever and original humour. Hard to find.

Hull fans thinking this isn't going to happen seem to be completely unaware of the trajectories of both clubs atm.
Time to put these in their place like we did with the Swansea lot still seething about Grimes.

Don't think Swansea were under a transfer embargo ,so why sell your best defender when all you can bring in is free transfers.

If it happens I’m interested to see how Lampard manages having 3 strong CBs for 2 places, but it’s a good problem to have

Funny people on here seem to know the inner workings of Hull yet the club keep bidding.

Hughes starts doesn't he. Can play either side so he plays with whoever is performing better at the time I suppose.

It’ll be Hughes and Thomas I’d expect.

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

I think he’s going to go Kitching and Hughes. Lampard trusts and seems to really like Kitching

 

[JimmyHillsbeard]

Kitching has been captain for all the league games this season. Suggests he has leadership qualities that are admired within the club.

It's not as though Hull can spend the cash to strengthen their squad. So I'd be very surprised if this happens.

 

[Deity]

If anyone thinks we are spending £10m on a CH to put him on the bench behind Thomas and Kitch then they are bat shit bonkers ….

Thomas has never been dropped while at the club. It’ll be Kitching.

We know all too well that being late in the window doesn’t stop players going. Money talks and if we offer enough he’s gone.

Coventry 1-0 Bristol City, 18th Jan. Lati, Binks, Kitch the back 3.

Yep. And key IF CH starts making noises then it happens, players hold power ultimately

No player should expect to get into a good side that's flying especially just after moving to the club. Then it's down to who is playing the best and who is most suited to the opponents.

Nothing wrong with a bit of squad rotation either.

 

[rexo87]

Hughes and Kitching for me

 

[HJones23]

Crazy that in a few weeks we could have a CB on the bench who was linked with moves to the prem, shows how far we have come really

 

[Trueskyblue20]

Or if we did sign him it would actually give us options for different game plans. Could have Bobby for the more defensive minded games and Kitch when we need a better passer through the lines.

One thing will be funny is all of the fans saying £20m would change their tune quickly. Can’t wait to read £12m for Charlie Hughes, he’s shit and we’ve had Coventrys pants down.

 

[Briles]

Until we lose in the league I wouldn't drop Kitching or Thomas

 

[PVA]

Thomas was attracting interest from Sheff Utd and apparently even PL teams, so can't imagine he'd be happy sitting on the bench and would possibly be looking for a move away.

And Kitching has worn the captains armband so highly thought of as well.

Will be a tough decision for sure (if it comes to it).

 

[Sick Boy]

If we're spending that much on him, there's no way he'll be joining to sit on the bench.

 

[Marty]

Will be Kitching and Hughes imo. The way we play, Kitching has the better range of passing and is able to carry the ball better. He's already played a significant role in a couple of goals this season.

 

[Deity]

What even if we keep shipping poor goals when winning ??

 

[jto123]

So correct me if I’m wrong but Hughes would become our highest purchase of all time at 12 mil? I would rather we go for loans then break our sensible transfer policy of the last 5 years.

King isn't going to do anything to put the club in trouble. If we buy him it will be a price the club is comfortable with so don't worry about it. Why develop someone else's player instead?
Finally we're becoming a real club again.

 

[Kingokings204]

I’m still unsure 12m if we have that money is best spent on a cb who is 21 years old. I get the investment side but it’s a big outlay for a young cb from Hull.
I back whatever they deem fit and Doug has completely earned my trust but seems a bit wild to smash our club record fee on a young cb.

 

[Liquid Gold]

It would be ideal if Hull were interested in a couple players that don’t quite fit here.

Give them Bidwell and Simms for free and reduce the transfer fee.

 

[Seamus1]

I’m probably in a minority of one, but if we do somehow have £12m available, I’d rather spend it on a couple of £4m defenders for strength in depth. Only takes a pulled hamstring and we are back to walking a tightrope for a number of weeks

I think the business case for each player is likely to be different so it probably doesn't work that way.
