2025/26 Charly Alcaraz

This AFCON period would have been the time to make himself a vital part of the squad and unfortunately he’s missed the whole thing.

Would not have made a difference tbh, the manager has his favourites and he would have been dropped when everyone came back.

Hopefully now hes back from afcon we get him on the bench again

Charly wasn't in afcon
He's injured, supposedly

 

[Swartzy]

It would have been very useful to have him available in January. I can understand the reservations but I think he'll have some positive matches for us again and we'll at least get our money back for him if he doesn't quite make it.

Only 18months left on his contract, so if you want money back you need to be moving him on in the summer.
If Moyes does want him as a squad option than we would need to offer a new deal to get any long term cash through the door.

Wow releasing him in 15/20 M and with Rohl's buying obligation for 25
Magnificent business . Bravo!

No need to get upset mate

Pretty sure we've got a club option to extend by a year if we want.

Possibly, I know it was only a 2yr deal.
You could be right though..

I reckon he will want to go play regular football somewhere, I could see him at Leeds or somewhere like that (Quite happy if they want to swap for Tanaka)

 

[Efcjake]

There's a year extension they can take up I thought?

See what Google says..

True and as a few others have said, he's going to find it difficult to get minutes ahead of the likes of Armstrong, Tim and even McNeil with the likes of the first team members returning from AFCON and injuries.

Ok, but another weird business. Like Dibling's. Big money on the bench and still without a proper right back

We need a bench though, mate. Glaring issues in other areas doesn’t mean that having capable deputies in midfield is a bad thing.

Charly has been far too inconsistent to warrant a place ahead of KDH, and Armstrong and Rohl have both looked safer bets in the short time they’ve been in the team.

Charly is one of the best players we have for always looking to drive forward, but generally that’s easier for him as a sub against tired legs.

No year extension option mate. The only time we took up an option was the option to buy him at the end of his loan deal.
