January 2017 Transfer Thread

[Lycan]

Ola John has had a press conference at Depor, nothing official from our side yet. Knowing us this season we probably wont even mention it.

I don't understand how communications with the fans have become so infrequent since the takeover. The social media side of things, except for squad news, has been basically unchanged - so I guess the PR team has just been told to not do as many transfer/injury updates?

Ola John has joined Deportivo on loan from Benfica, done deal.

 

[Nando]

Confirmed on Depor's Twitter, no mention at all on ours.

Maybe Mendes has not told Wolves yet.

Connor Hunte's had his contract terminated, says Spiers.

What's happened there? A year ago he was on the edge of the first team, wasn't he?

Confirmed.

Not sure he was ever especially good, just would have been nice to see him get a go on the left rather than the painfully right footed Henry or the painfully shite Helan when we had nothing to play for.

Nazon signing anytime now. 6 month contract to go into the u23 group for what will be a glorified trial.

Ola John's departure confirmed. Oddly he joins Deportivo on loan from us despite him only being on loan to us from Benfica.

I didn't want to ask that for fear of looking stupid

 

[The Bear]

I'm assuming he's on a season long loan to us with no recall clause then.

I know absolutely nothing about him. Sounds like more of an extended trial so why don't we give the guy a chance?

Up to him to earn a longer deal - if it doesn't work out its not like we've spaffed millions on a dud.

The twitter reaction is embarrassing and wholly desrespectful. Unless of course some people have closely followed his career, are up to speed with Haitian football/the Indian league, are aware of his attributes and haven't just scouted via Wikipedia?

I will back him fully but he has scored 2 goals in a league of pub footballers.

He's signed on a free transfer for an initial 6 months. If he turns out to be a dud, no harm done surely?

Can't see the issue here.

As long as we are actively looking for another I agree, my worry is this will be the only striker that signs this window. As a result my pants are getting wetter by the minute.

I think I might need some calpol.

Why would a free transfer who's going straight to the U23s affect our transfer plans for the first team?

IT JUST DOES OK!!!!????

Every window is the same, we sign a young player identified and openly paraded as being for the U18/23's and Wolves fans go into meltdown that this in some way impacts on what we are looking to do with the first team squad. We may sign a new centre forward, we may not, but this has bugger all to do with it either way.
