Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window (50 Viewers)

[fernandopartridge]

Probably get stick but how about Rhian Brewster from Sheffield? Can play up front and I think on the right, out of contract aswell, good at this level and knows the league

No

[SkyBlueStallion_89]

No

Fair does

Be a more mobile forward then Simms, think he score more then Simms this season and has played in the Prem, altho in a shit season with Sheffield, I think hed be a good signing pal, anyway we're not even linked with him just think he'd be a good pick up

My Gran is more mobile than Simms and she passed last year. I don't think it's accurate that he scored more than Simms though, which again is saying something. As you say anyway, they appear to be in talks about keeping him.. not sure too many of their fans see that as an ambitious move. Maybe time for a reality check for the Blunt faithful.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Could be mate but hell soon be earning nothing but I think he'd be a good signing

I dont get the earn nothing argument.

If you were on 50k in your job and got made redundant, would you look for jobs around what you were paid before, rather than accepting something on 25k?

They had alot of players on loan, their star defender Ahmedhodzic wants out, probably lose Hamer and Souza too so most of their good players will be gone

We did think that last summer tbf but yes i'd have to agree. There are 2 or 3 there (Hamer included) who probably gave them a year to get back up but will now be agitating for a move.

I'm shocked they held on to souza and Hamer

 

[b12345]

I'd be after Mark Travers if we're bringing a keeper in. Top keeper at this level

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Worth listening to the comments by Callum Wislon though in the interview linked in the football and other sports forum.
Says it can take 18 months to get back to your best, that may not apply for keepers though.

Either way, we definitely need a keeper in.

Exactly, assuming his physical recovery goes to plan… will he recover mentally? In all likelihood, he recovers and all is fine.

That said, it’s clear that Lampard doesn’t fully trust the 2 back up goalkeepers so a short term option doesn’t do anything for us.

Get a goal keeper loan in for a year. No issue if need to bench him when dovins back

However that's if Collins and Wilson go. If we're gonna be paying them maybe we give them yet another chance?

 

[ProfessorbyGrace]

Any actual rumours or whispers going around?

As opposed to the barrage of wants and suggestions.

Liam Walsh for me. Get it done Frank.

And would a team be happy loaning out a young prospect knowing they will be benched?

I was thinking more an experienced keeper tbh. Like when we had the Sheffield Wednesday lad, forget his name now.

Young or old we wouldn't advertise they gonna be benched after 6 months either tbf

but it wouldnt take a genius to work out first choice keeper out injured and the player will be benched when hes back

 

[Hincha]

I'd definitely go for a GK loan for the season

All loans have a Jan recall clause inserted anyway so if Dovin manages to get his place back by then it will be cut short anyway

If he's not ready in Jan then when he's ready he can compete to be no.1 again. If he does, happy days

More likely scenario is that Dovin will need to be eased back in. I don't think it would be damaging to his development if he's no.2 when he comes back next year and then ready to be no.1 again in 26/27

This all hinges on the GK loan being good mind

The parent club will probably have a slightly different attitude about that...

 

[Winny the Bish]

Just read an article that highlighted how Richard Kone stacks up as one of the best young strikers in Europe.

Ideal move would be selling Simms and getting him in as a replacement.

Saw one earlier linking half the midlands, including us, to Louie Barry

 

[2024/25 League 1 Champs?]

if Rudoni goes to Sheff Utd as is rumoured we’ll need another quality midfielder too…

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Or if he goes to Newcastle.

worrying times isn’t it

yep

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Or if he goes to Newcastle.

worrying times isn’t it

Considering Rudoni put in Hamer numbers last season… we could reasonably insist on a fee of £20-25m for him.

He’s younger than Hamer was 2023 with 3 years left on his contract. We’d be stupid to not demand an unreasonably high fee.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

yep

I might not renew my season ticket now

I think we’d sell him for £10m. Worrying times.

 

[long way home]

It would be the worst transfer in the clubs history selling Rudoni for 10 mill to a championship rival.. And that's what Leicester and Sheff Utd are, we are not a mid placed championship team.

If prem comes in then conversation changes,but Sheff utd, Leicester do me a favour. Not worth a 2nd thought.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Jack Burroughs signing for Northampton (destination of many an academy product over the years)

 

[Trueskyblue20]

Think you’re right, maybe he goes for less than £5m and we might even go down this year. It’s so shit being a cov fan

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

I think we’d sell him for £10m. Worrying times.

Respectfully, no idea why you think that… we’re not owned by SISU anymore.

Hamer = £15m with a sell on %
Vik = £20m + add ons

Rudoni has longer on his contract and younger than both players.

Bellingham is going to go for silly money by the look of it and he's a much better player, (though he doesn't have a famous brother), but I'd be looking for considerably more than whatever Bellinghams fee is.

Leicester could have a transfer ban or points or both I reckon so that rules them out definitely, he'll not go to another championship team simple as that, either way we cannot lose him we need to build the team around him going into next year with other quality additions, however like you said if a prem team calls we will be powerless.

20-25 million easy, not just for the sucessful season he's had in terms of his output but he will get better and better being only 23

Think he's on the wind up but fair play for laying out the facts in black and white anyway.

Yeah I can’t believe some thought I was serious. We’d clearly only get £5m for him

The guidelines for an ACL is 9-12 months so it could be as long as March.

Equally, a 6 month loan means the parent club can opt to take him back at the end of the loan which would be mostly likely a 1st Jan expiry. Even end of Jan is within the recommended rehab period for an ACL injury so Dovin may not be ready.

Again, you’re still left with Wilson and Collins for backups which is unacceptable given how this season has ended. It’s an area that needs addressing properly and a 6 month loan kicks the can down the road.

A lot of people’s idea of ‘acceptable’ cover is completely inadequate. There’s posts in preseason that were genuinely happy with the prospect of Kai Andrews being a 4th or 5th choice CM…

What is wrong with that opinion on Andrews?
Are we ever going to produce one that is young enough if the closed minds can't spot the potential there?

Find me one post which says they’d be happy with Andrews as 4th choice

 

[JSL]

For my own understanding, the transfer window opens on Sunday right? Seems an odd day to start doing business. Hopefully we are not caught napping and lose out to anyone
