Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[MACCA75]

Juve want to sell Luiz. Forest are willing to buy. We only want to loan. All pretty much corroborated by sensible reporters over several weeks. If that translates into Forest is ahead or Juve is pushing him there stories for the more sensationalist sites then so be it. It isn’t new. We are not actively pursuing him right now but retain an interest/contact (Athletic, Echo & Bobble have all been fairly consistent on this). If he is still there late window and a loan is possible then we’d probably be more engaged.

If Luiz is available for anything like £35 million then it would have been the first deal I would have done this summer. Exactly the sort of quality we need in midfield

Poses the question.... why has Forest not bid?

If they want him surely they need to bid.

If a player sees Fulham Football Club as a better career opportunity than Everton then we are clearly doing something very wrong. We’re not even talking about a Villa or a Forest or even a West Ham. We’re talking about a club that is as tinpot as it gets.

Is anyone still in any doubt that we've been doing things very wrong for years?

We had a good few months under Moyes last season. That doesn't (yet) outweigh in players' minds the circus it's been for years.

Lets face it, a loan with obligation is a purchase anyway isn`t it, just the players value sits in the sellers club for the loan season.

along with dozens of other international and club teammates as well as shitloads of house dj’s.

England team mates liking each others posts.

Definitely a bit of a desperate reach this one.

Oh I’m so very sorry for actually trying to bring in some transfer related chat… my apologies to all who were ‘enjoying’ the previous few pages of ‘debate’…

Depends on whether the obligation is conditional.

We could have found ourselves on the hook for £40m for Dele without those conditions...

It's the most wonderful time of the year!

I’m more interested in how he spells ‘wonderful’

Feast your eyes on this abomination of a post, Mr Grammar Policeman.

Notice I have never ever commented on anyone's grammar unless they specifically try to use it against another poster, it's a footy forum and half the lads posting have usually had a beer or ten, so being a pendant and going straight at someone over grammar rather than arguing the point is a Richard move.

But love you jumping to the defence of a person who initially did so.

Anyways, transfer thread maybe we should try to sign a player or two eh.

Because he's reportedly on £175 k per week?

Gibbs white signed a new contract?

I do think Dave is a Chico multi every now and then.

That would be one of the greatest heists in history
