Summer 2022 Transfer Thread

[Londonvilla]

More on Carney Chukwuemeka deal. Been told player will travel to London tonight, fee around £15m plus add ons. Chelsea will seal six year deal, valid until 2028. 🚨🔵 #CFC

Medical scheduled on Wednesday for Carney who’ll be unveiled as new signing later this week.

Big surprise.

Good money (with add-on) we need to get 5 more out the door

I would be happy with

Bertrand Traoré £7 - £9m
Marvelous Nakamba £2.5 -£3m
Keinan Davis £6m with add-on
Anwar El Ghazi £1.5
Frédéric Guilbert £500k

The Key issue is getting people out now not waiting to get higher transfer fees for them.

Then we can look to bring in two at the end of the window

Update
Carney Chukwuemeka: Chelsea agree deal to sign Aston Villa midfielder for £20m

Don't forget to retire his seat on the bench

[VinnieChase84]

Depends on whether we need to free up squad space though. Tim and Chambers at a push is probably enough in that role.

We do still need to see the departures of AEG, Guilbert, Traore. Imagine now everything is going to be late in the window

[cdbearsfan]

So our plan is to have zero/one winger on the bench, or bring Ashley Young on to play there? I'd rather have Bertie, thanks.

[Dogtanian]

Looks like Keinan is training again. Now a decision has been made on Archer, do we keep him or send him out / sell him?

[cdbearsfan]

Unlike Archer, he uses up a squad space. I'd sell him with a sell-on clause if we could get decent money. With our Board's negotiating skills, I'm expecting £50 million plus a £5 million bonus per injury.

Are we struggling to get down to 25 though?

Depends who we get rid of.

We named twenty after the last transfer window.

Since then, Trezeguet has left.

Kamara, Augustinsson, Carlos, El Ghazi, Davis, Steer, Guilbert and Jacob Ramsey have all joined, returned, or been reclassified as over-21 players.

So that's 27. You'd imagine Steer, supposedly due back around the time the World Cup starts, won't be named until January and, even then, might be more likely to be loaned again than retained.  You'd also assume two or three more will likely be transferred or loaned so we would probably be okay but wouldn't leave much room for a late acquisition or two.

[Drummond]

Lets retire his shirt....Lol

Yep, the coveted number 33....

[Drummond]

You'd imagine Steer, Davis, AEG and Guilbert won't make the squad and perhaps someone else sold too. (actually more than one if Traore is one, then Nakamba /Luiz too?)

[Brazilian Villain]

Lets retire his shirt....Lol

Yep, the coveted number 33....

If we don't sign any other players with the initials CC we probably won't need it.

[Astral Weeks]

He made that number 33 shirt his own.

Been reported that SG likes Archer and he's staying put

Confirmed by SG yesterday

Tim doesn't take a place in the 25, though, does he? Being a youf, an all.
