Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

Looking at Roma’s transfer history, I think it will be:

Alcaraz buyout
Gana, Doucoure extensions.
moderate money (£25-35M) on a striker;
lower money (£10-25M) on a central midfielder, right midfielder, and a right back;
value buys/free agents/loans for a left midfielder, center half, left back, and keeper.

Around £110M spend before sales. Not sure who we’d sell with all the contracts/loans expiring. Don’t think we let Brant go. Don’t think we sell Beto, but maybe.

At Roma they made big early statement signings. Roma at the time had been in debt/constrained by PSR yet spent big.

No reason to think they won’t attempt it here.

Delap…young striker with potential joining but be a statement

Very hypothetical/wishful thinking but I do think there is something to note with TFG, Roma, us and our striker issue.

I just think its worth noting that Roma have a noteworthy goalscorer in Artem Dovbyk. He is maybe not the flashiest or sexiest strikers but his work over the last two seasons in both La Liga and Serie A are genuinely impressive. 16 goals 4 assist over all comps is nothing to sneeze at especially factoring the rockiness of ASR's early season. I think its also worth noting Beto's history in Serie A where he was matching similar returns to Dovbyk at least in league. I say all this as there is a semblance of logic for TFG to reallocate the players. Placing their better striker in the prem (their more important club asset) but assuring a similar goal tally back with a proven commodity for Roma. A transition that could maybe have a little more assurance factoring Eldor Shomurodov (Roma's backup ST) being fairly productive in spells in his own right.

Ultimately I would guess its a no go if nothing else because of the risk it causes for Dovbyk's value. If he has another or improved season in Rome with his current tallys (I would say likely) he is flippable in his prime for decent profit. He flops in the EPL that gets put into question. But if Roma misses europe (very possible considering the fixtures) its at least worth to speculate or note. Our owners have a pretty good solution in-house with their other asset.

I think we need to go all out for Liam Delap:

We can offer:
Guaranteed 1st team football
Big wages - £100k+

If he has a £30m clause which is to be believed, get in early, see if Man City wants him back now and move now to get a key signing in early.

Another key element is next season is a World Cup year so going into a season as No 9 for a Premier League club is a huge plus.

Same agents as Pickford and Chemiti so we have a good relationship with them.

He would be the first of a key signing which would provide a domino effect and encourage other targets to look at joining over other clubs.

Think what could scupper us going in for Delap early or getting him at all is psr until this year is finished in June or July. With release clauses they generally have to be paid up in full I think

I think it would be pretty underwhelming if that was the route we went down. I'm not sure you're going to get the instant return you'd need from a 28 year old at £30 odd million from Dovbyk, good player though he is.

He's an absolute waste of wages, we should be glad that he's going to be off our books, not repeat the same mistake.
