The Summer 2018 Transfer Thread

[Langers]

Wow, this thread is a lot quieter this morning than I expected! Calm before the storm?

Seen Vida mentioned again this morning...

It's not even 10am yet you flapping belmer.

 

[Deano]

Dendoncker and Zinchenko are probably going to happen. I think that will be it and what a window it will have been (unless someone who is a ridiculous upgrade on what we have becomes available)

 

[Del Woppio]

Aye. Tbh I think this marquee talk is a bit of a red herring. We're really well balanced now unless Raul is going to be relegated to the bench

 

[BGreenWolf]

I think we'll be looking at what's available, but anything past Dendoncker/Zinchenko will be a luxury signing rather than one we can't do without.

That's not to say that something won't happen- I'd love to see a Robinho-style attention grabber of a signing.

 

[Tredman]

If there is no marquee signing there are a couple of twitter ITKs who are going to take a lot of pelters.

I'm sat by the beach waiting for hopefully the best deadline day ever.

 

[YoungWolf]

Dendoncker at the mount then

 

[Langers]

Dendoncker at the mount then

Yep.

He'll be a superb signing. Really pleased with that one.

Who’s flapping?

 

[Boozad]

Dendoncker is an unbelievable signing, Zinchenko will also be a fantastic signing, and I'd expect that to be that. But with Fosun running the show I really wouldn't rule anything out.

 

[Norman Deeley]

When does the loan window close for EFL clubs? Is that next week?

 

[Langers]

Zinchenko deal is apparently OFF

#fosunout

 

[YoungWolf]

According to the Nashster anyway. Didn’t GFFH seem to think it was done?

 

[Jinky]

Hearing the Zinchenko deal is OFF as the player has turned down the chance to join @Wolves, according to sources in Manchester. A £16m fee had been agreed several weeks ago and a medical had been arranged at Compton this morning.

Seems he is happy to sit on the bench/play in the reserves all season.

 

[Langers]

I wonder if that means we'll be back in for Clucas?

This is all very exciting!!

“A few weeks ago, I was thinking Wolves might mount a surprise challenge for the top half (at least) with their Portugal-on-Brum project,” writes Steve Hoare. “But now you’re telling me they’re buying two more today following the one more yesterday, is it too many? 11 new players? That’s some integration project. I’m not sure it’s particularly motivating for the players that got them to the Prem either... or have they sold all those already? What looked smart and ambitious is starting to look scattergun.” Frankly I am astonished that they’re still throwing money around, but the quality of their signings has been high. I’d be surprised if they were relegated, but there could be some teething troubles before things finally click into gear. A good team to play in August, I’d have thought."

Booooo GFFH out

I wonder if that means we'll be back in for Clucas?

This is all very exciting!!

If we are we need to be quick. He is currently at Stoke having a medical.

I really hope not!!

Good, he's fucking shite.

Meh - that means nothing. Ask Joe Bryan.
