The Transfer Thread 2018/19 - everything not Wolves

[Deutsch Wolf]

SHOCK NEWS as West Ham make a move for Wilshere.

 

[AndyWolves]

Stoke are paying Matt Ritchie £75k a week

That's nuts

Stoke are lumping everything on going straight back up but in a better way than villa did

 

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

Matt Ritchie must have one hell of an agent.

 

[Lord Knows]

Real Betis and William Carvalho in advanced negotiations, according to the Estadio Deportivo, Sporting will receive an amount of EUR 15 million, if the transfer is completed.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Daylight robbery.

Brighton are poised to sign Fulham goalkeeper David Button

Can only presume Krul is offski as they recently singed Steele from Sunderland (why I don't know) as a back up.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

You love Combover Button as well. The only keeper at Molineux in 2016/17 who rivalled Lonners for shitness.

 

[Lord Knows]

Bournemouth have accepted a bid from Nottingham Forest in the region of £6m for striker Lewis Grabban.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

There's an example of transfer market inflation for you, right there.

11 January 2016: Bournemouth sign 28 year old striker Lewis Grabban from Norwich for £8m

11 January 2016 - 5 July 2018: Lewis Grabban plays 22 games for Bournemouth in all competitions, scoring one goal

5 July 2018: Bournemouth sell 30 year old (turns 31 in January) striker Lewis Grabban to Nottingham Forest for £6m

There's no way he should have held that kind of value. But the market has escalated vastly even in two and a half years. They've done well to get £16m this summer for two strikers who did absolutely bugger all for them.

 

[Lord Knows]

Goalkeeper Andy Lonergan leaves Leeds United. Contract ended by mutual consent. Deal was up next summer.

 

[Kenny]

Can see a cheap move to Villa for Lonners

They need a keeper, Brucey will love his experience and ignore ability and his wages will be low.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

That's three clubs in a row now who've signed him for free and then got rid of him for free long before his contract is due to finish.

He will get another deal somewhere though, managers are stupid.

 

[Freddeno]

Agreed, they are(well many of them who keeps getting new clubs after 1000 failures)

Although he didn't do anything for Bournemouth it does somewhat overlook that he was second top scorer in Forest's league last season and had decent loan spells with two different clubs.

 

[Tony Towner]

Bournemouth accepted £6m bid from Blues aswell - he'll go to Forest I'd have thought. Blues are either bidding to placate fans knowing they won't get him or have been inspired by Villa's 'no pot to piss in' strategy for the following season.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Blues categorically cannot afford that.

 

[AndyWolves]

Blues categorically cannot afford that.

Blues net spend was bigger than ours last season. Trouble abrewing me thinks in the not too distant future

 

[Kenny]

Blues are desperately trying to sell Stockdale as his wages are way to high for them. Good work Harry

 

[Nando]

Odriozola to Real for €40m.

 

[Lord Knows]

João Teixeira, yes the one who played for Wolves joins Chaves on a free transfer.
