Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

Ekikite, kudus and potentially Luis Diaz all on the move this summer for big money. They make up a hell of a front 3 in our nearly signed XI

most kopite post for some time....

….would he be brought in to play that position? Lovely footballer in possession, looks the ideal type to put Beto in with that passing range but would he be more of an option to Alcaraz?

Not sure if I’m honest.

No, he's pretty much always played deeper

 

[devon_blue]

my predictions for signings based on current rumours are:

Doak
Fellows
Hackney
Luiz (loan)
Grealish (loan)
Tagliafico (free)

obvs missing a right back (not many reliable links currently) but would be a significant upgrade in attack and midfield imo

Think we will miss out on mcatee and kubo (although he’d be a cracking signing) push for Doak over Hutchinson unless Ipswich willing to negotiate down from release clause

Think was another player similar to delap that we had to be in for that price. Is a shame but onto the next one

Yeah, it's the little passive aggressive 'nearly signed X1'
A subtle dig at our wonderful club.

Nah he’s pretty combative in holding midfield, similar-ish to a Gareth Barry but more mobile which would fit perfectly by Gueye

Not a pop at you mate but people need to stop linking this fellas tweets - he's a fraud

Who's everyones favourite Vidal?

Seen some Villa fans turning their noses up at the prospect of Luiz going back there, according to them his decline in form started before he left for Juve.

Fwiw I thought he looked quality everytime I saw him play in the PL, but interesting nonetheless.

I concur with your opinion that he still looks like a quality player, I notice supporters sometimes get more scrutinizing when their climbs experience a degree of success or improvement.

We were never in for him, its Kubo we want

I'm still not completely sold on any of the players that have been linked for the right wing position. Bakayoko was the one I think would have been best suited.

Doak: Injury issues
McAtee: more a no 10
Fellows: Lacks pace and one dimensional
Hutchinson: overrated and better on the left
Kubo: Can he adapt to the premier league?

Glad I'm not doing the scouting. I'd be dithering more than Moyes!
