Summer transfer, gossip, speculation thread

£25m is the going rate for an ex public schoolboy.

We are very much in the eye of the transfer posturing storm. As expected teams know we have money, they all know we need players, the teams selling will want to get their own replacements in, players in many cases will get frustrated that we have targeted the closer the deadline draws in. We will get some deals done within scope and some we will overpay. It will get very compressed and in some cases desperate. As it always has been and will be.

Surprised we haven't been linked with Joe Allen.

Still only 29 despite being around for ages, plays DM role well for Wales and thought he was great for Stoke last season at VP playing box-to-box role.

Stoke would surely cash in for 15m.

£25m is the going rate for an ex public schoolboy.

Or even £20M

Mings travelling to Birmingham tonight. 20m agreed according to John Percy (Telegraph) :-))))

I fully expect him to arrive at BMH in full kit.

Percy article about Mings says Dean Smith has been in Egypt over the weekend watching a couple of targets in the African Cup of Nations.

Trezeguet?  There were a couple of good players in the Ghana game too.

Apparently Jordan Ayew is going to Palace for £2.5m...

Rumours jarrod Bowen to Southampton for 10-15m


That does seem very low considering other prices quoted (tho I note nobody has actually paid one of these stupid prices yet)

great price  goalscorer and creater on the wing and can play up front  . Id be happy with him .

Talk next week's early target is Neal Maupay.

Apparently Sheffield United bid 20m and us and Burnley also very interested.

Some chatter about the Eqyptian chap Trezeguet too.

How much did we spend in total under Lerner? Could we overtake it in this transfer window?

Apparently Suso was in Cairo with Deano. Who the fuck knows if it’s true or if he’s there on a romantic getaway with Nigel Sphinx
