The Incoming Transfers Everywhere Thread: Summer 2023

[Tony Towner]

That's shit considering how much we paid for him?

About £8m profit before wages and without knowing any add ons due to Sporting and how much the plus is, so £15m or thereabouts over his current book value

 

[Wolvensam]

I wouldn’t want to see him leave so late on - he’s started the season well, but this is only going to go one way and I wouldn’t be surprised if it still left us with nothing to spend.

Hardly the Brighton transfer model...

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Would I miss him as a player, not particularly. Can't play where we signed him to play, goes through spells where he can't even pass the ball five yards, never scores, hopeless defensively.

Only worth it if we use the money though.

What are having for tea Sam?

 

[Sniffer]

Silly bid being what we paid for him?

 

[Wolvensam]

Ha! Sorry, I haven’t scrolled through this thread and not been on the forum for a few days.

We’ll end up selling him on deadline day for £65m and not having a replacement.

 

[Boozad]

If that was a certainty he'd already be there.

Nope.

If I knew we’d spend the money wisely then I’m all for it but I really wouldn’t trust Fosun not to just bank it and come up with another BS excuse

 

[Quirkafleeg]

The reason we are in trouble is the fact we over paid for these type of players in the first place. If we don't get this money for Nunes ploughed back in the likes of Guo, Jeff and Hobbs need not come to Molineux again.

 

[Sniffer]

If he goes and it doesn’t translate into 3 first team options coming in then it’s a terrible deal regardless of the fee.

 

[Wolvensam]

You’d ideally want one of those three players to be involved in the Nunes deal too. I’d take £50m + someone coming the opposite way (or a loan with obligation to buy).

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

City don't want to go anywhere near swap/part-ex deals with financial charges hanging over them (not that such deals ever happen anyway)

 

[Alan]

Nope.

Good point?

Superstar is a big word, he’s got a lot of growing to do before he’s close to that. He wouldn’t show up at City and become a world beater overnight.

 

[Quirkafleeg]

How many loans have Citeh done this season, sure it's 2 or 3 they have sent out. What's the loan limit in the Prem.

 

[Wolvensam]

He’d do the typical thing under Pep - probably be a bit ‘meh’ for a season and then next year become a superstar for them.

 

[Wolftone]

Rat deserting the sinking ship.

 

[Del Woppio]

This football club is an absolute fucking car crash. Cheers Jeff, you pathetic little prick
