Pretty certain we get at least 2-3 players in this week tbh. There’s no way TFG will have us opening our shiny new stadium with a threadbare squad, the optics would be terrible for them. Makes a lot more sense to make a few signings this week and get all sorts of adulation at the Roma game on Saturday.

We said they wouldn’t let us go to the US with a skeleton squad missing an arm to be humiliated in front of the American audience by 3 Premier League teams as well to be fair.

I think Joorabchian is using Forest to pressure Everton to cough up more money, Juventus wants to make a deal with anyone who will take him on permanently, and Everton are only willing to take him on loan with an option. It's at a standstill, and so he flies to Germany.

Gianni Balzarini's latest video talks about Forest as a serious contender, and gives numbers that don't make any sense. He has Forest offering well under Juventus's stated demand, but says he thinks they can make a deal. He says that Forest is offering 33-34 million euro, while Juventus wants 40, but he thinks a deal can be made for 38.

The crucial bit is that he mentions it would be a loan with an obligation triggered by certain "easily reachable" conditions. He repeatedly said in the past that Everton was in for a 10+30 deal (10 million euro loan fee with an option to buy for an additional 30 million). The sticking point was that Juventus demanded an obligation rather than an option.

Balzarini gives the club view of things, whereas some of the other sources work with the agents. If this is a bit of gamesmanship from Juventus, then taking those numbers all together, it's possible they're piggybacking on Joorabchian's Forest gambit and dangling a carrot, hoping Everton will either (a) jump on the obligation to not lose out or (b) compromise on the option by accepting a loan with a triggered obligation.

No. I think he's going to move later in the window, and he's not our first choice, but we'd take him on loan with an option.
