Who else do we expect to go out on loan?
Andrews, Obikwu, Basette, Raphael?

Massive couple of weeks for Rod, Bassette and Obikwu this pre season could determine the futures of them at the club. Andrews is one i think the club will take time with and make good decisions on his pathway.

But the others its now the time to shit or get off the potty. They either fit in and add making impacts or they fail and find a club that's suits them. Big investment gone in and we need to see a return. I like Bassette and liked Obikwu from what i have seen. I just hope for the sake of the club they bridge the gap and give FL some real selection issues. We need to be successful with our development of players and 5 or 6 have a chance to shine.

But harsh on Obikwu who cost us nothing and has scored goals in men’s football.

Vic looks increasingly like a done deal, but unfortunately, the fee is no longer as high as we hoped. Gus may still move but we cannot rely on it happening, as last season was the optimum time for him to go further up the football pyramid.
The fringe players are currently our squad, so to move someone on the offer has to be good and we have to have a better player lined up. There may be players fans want to see move but they have very little sell on value. Of the players who would attract a decent fee, Haji and Eccles are injured and MVE and Rudoni would be a big loss even with a new right back already signed.
A loan out is possible, but there must be takers. Loans are usually used to improve young players not always to offload unfancied players.

Does it and does it?

He'll likely move but the talk on the fee is currently all speculation, I wouldn't believe everything Fab Romano says about Vik Remember when he left us?

Vik is clearly kicking off to get a move. Reports say Vik is willing to take a hit on his percentage of the fee which shows a player who backs his own talent. Think Sporting will have to accept a drop on the amount they want or have a very unhappy player. Probably still be a substantial sum but nowhere near a 100 million euros.

His future isn't going to be decided on a pre season training camp in Portugal, likewise the others mentioned

is he? or is this just agent nonsense released by their pet "journalist" on twitter to paint Sporting Club in a bad light? don't believe everything Fab Romano says.

Vik will leave but we have no idea how near a deal is or what the fee is likely to be.

But mate please don't take everything transfer nobs on twitter say to be true

I don't think its harsh its reality, the same reality Burroughs and Howley got. Sooner or later a coach is making decisions on what level they think you can reach. If FL deems Obikwu is good enough then Obikwu will be pushed into 1st team squads. If he thinks he has the potential but not ready then they offer an extension and get him a Loan with a pathway to the 1st team.

I really want all 3 mentioned be good enough to push into the 1st team. Just think the time is getting close to when FL will start to drop a few he doesn't think are up to it. We will soon find out thats for sure.

But Gyokeres was a big part of it. Most of the team were bought from what we got for him.

“The club like Jack Rudoni at Coventry. There is a feeling the 24-year-old is the best player outside the Premier League - this is shared by many #NUFC scouts. He will be on the list of potential midfield options to replace Sean Longstaff.”

If he’s the best outside the premier league he’s going to cost £25m+

It's fan account slop. He isn't going anywhere unless someone goes mental with a 20m+ bid which won't happen off the back of 6-7 months form
