The Summer 2025 Transfer Window Thread

Lots of noise on social media about Semedo being in advanced talks with Benfica in respect to signing with them when his contract runs out here.

Yeah, feels about right and would make sense for him.

We paid too much for him but he’s been pretty good for us over the years and, as a standard right back, one of the best in the business.

I’d personally wish him well - no complaints from me.

They're desperate for a right back so it makes sense.

He's been a good servant for us and I'll be sad to see him go.

Another Captain departing...........I know all players move on , but we're pretty good at losing Captains it must be said .

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Coady
Kilman
Neves
Lemina
Semedo

It is impressive!

Doc for skipper. Vote now.

 

[Jolemai]

He will be next season...

 

[Del Woppio]

I mean other than Coady and perhaps Neves (though I think it didn't work, it wasn't terrible), it's not a great list of captains is it

Kilman
Neves
Lemina
Semedo

Batth also never played for us again after being co-captain (think he was still officially club captain) in 2017/18.

I quite like Semedo as captain tbh, seems to speak a bunch of sense. Wasn't an obvious candidate admittedly

Sounds like Sarabia is off to Sevilla when his contract runs out this summer. Not one I'll be sad to see go, I'm afraid.

Plus frees up a big wage for Jeff to stick on his sheets.

Highest paid player in our history, until Cunha signed his deal.

We didn't get anywhere near the quality we should have for that cash.

However it was a low fee.

Source isn't great, but...

 

[Keef]

Another two to underbid on all through the window, fail to get, no other targets looked at and then a statement saying due to FFP we couldn’t get any players in but we tried

 

[pavlosmacwolf]

What's the score with this Mane kid people have been talking about?

Or more likely nothing will happen because the source is an absolute joke

 

[Jinky]

Being linked with a move for Michael Keane when his contract runs out this summer. Fucking strap yourselves in, boys.

 

[lemonjelly]

Fuck no. He's terrible.

 

[Del Woppio]

They just want the next Dawson.

 

[Sniffer]

I’d prefer to have Keane in our line up over Santi Bueno.
