The Summer 2024 Transfer Thread.

Oh and talking of trains I'm still aboard the Morgan Whittaker at Plymouth train. Another one that would cost very little, is in a position we now need (right midfield) and his output for an almost relegated Championship club was fantastic (19G, 8A) .

Apparently Rangers had a bid of £7m turned down, and Plymouth are holding out for £10m.

That's still cheap for a young English player with that sort of output in the 2nd tier IMO. There must be something wrong with him or surely more clubs would be all over him. I read he tailed off in the 2nd half of last season, when they changed manager so maybe he only works in a very specific role or something.

£15m for two highly rated young players in positions we need....

Linked with Fabio Carvalho again according to Twitter. Had a good preseason for Liverpool.

 

[Deano]

I like Fabio Carvalho and he can play a number of those forward positions. Id want him on a permanent or loan with option though not a straight loan

Isn't their asking price close to £30m.

Rejected £15m from Southampton so far.

Yeah Carvalho would be really good I think, doubt we’d pay what they want

I'd imagine, their 'he must play' condition is still in place and if so we should continue to be out

Thing is he would have played loads if we'd signed him in January

 

[Tony Towner]

Yes in hindsight, still doesn't mean we should sign up to those type of deals though

 

[NicholasG1973]

I’ve no interest in signing any player on loan, whatsoever.

See absolutely zero point in developing other teams players.

Unless it’s with an option to buy, obviously.

You've got to judge it on its individual merits.

Had we signed Fofana or Brereton-Diaz on loan in January then we'd very likely have finished in the top half and gone to Wembley at least once.

 

[Tony Towner]

It's a view I shared when we had ambition, now we just want to finish 17th you may as well take them if they are better than what we have and it helps you achieve your aims

Do you think that Wolves are going to pay a loan fee of over 20 million?

The source is poor, but that would be to sign him, not loan him

 

[Kenny]

The source is poor

Aye

Neto passes his medical and is set to be unveiled to the fans tomorrow.

 

[Shotbybothsides]

The number 11 Raya Valecano striker Nteka would be a good back up striker for us, if not pushing for a first team place. Better than anything we had up front today.

 

[Del Woppio]

How concerned are we that we've signed a young Wout Weghorst?

 

[Carsy]

Do you think the coaching setup haven’t thought about this themselves?

I’m sure they have. Doesn’t mean we can’t have a comment and speculate though does it? I’m sure they would’ve thought our squad was bare thin last year as well, and it also remained bare thin
