January 2023 Transfer Rumours, Discussions and Done Deals Thread

[Behind Bluenose Lines]

As an aside, Real Madrid are in for Jude Bellingham. Will put the the Sky clubs' noses out of joint! Talking of noses will our nearest and dearest benefit from this in any way? Do they have a clause of some sort? Can't get hold of any family noses at the moment.

I've researched and scouted a number of players who would complement the Villa lineup, so I'll have something to contribute to the conversation in January.

Good to hear! There's been some ill-informed nonsense on here during the World Cup, it'll be nice to have some rigorous analysis back on the site.

Matheus Cunha previously linked with us being touted for a transfer to Wolves as well.

Set for Wolves for a fee of FIFTY MILLION POUNDS apparently.

This sounds a lot of money for a player who doesnt score many goals (I know he plays wide also but mainly up front for Atleti I think?)  That said I think Man U were previously after him and quoted £90m, so maybe it's a top signing - not seen enough of him to judge myself.

Marcus Thuram. Would add a lot of quality to the forward areas.
He would be pleasing to all here.

Does your scouting = watching the World Cup, Footy?

On that one I'd guess he read my posts about him from about 2 1/2 years ago.

I think the context of them paying nearly that much for Maguire is important when judging the quality of players based on what Man Utd pay.

You've "scouted" them?!

And how was Qatar?

Oooh hark at Mr Know-it-all....  :-)

According to SKY - Cunha is going on loan to the Wolves and then they will buy for £35 million

In all honesty I was only talking about him at the time by fluke because I spent a ferw weeks working with a bunch of german developers and a couple of them were season ticket holders at Gladbach and kept raving about how good he was, if ever I talk about european players it'll always be the same story. In a similar vein there are loads of dutch, german and norwegians who are looking out for Iroegbunam because I've raved about how good he's going to be.

Yes good article.
Based on the way the club is being managed there is a strong possibility that the owners will have cashed out every available option.

I’d never heard of solidarity payments until this article.  Thanks Risso.

Thurman, Cunha, I have no idea who these are or if they are any good. Obviously my scouting ability it shit.
