2023 Summer transfer window - hopes, needs, expectations and rumours.

Forest supposedly have FFP issues as well.

Brennan Johnson in, according to the David Ornstein (bloke who broke the Tielemans deal).

Apparently it's a fake account.  Good player.

£30m + though

Apparently Brentford offered £30m which Forest thought "derisory and insulting". They're saying £50m+ might open talks but I'm guessing they'd settle for £40m with add-ons. It's a hell of a lot of money for a kid who has potential. I can't see us going there at that price.

As mentioned It’s fake news from a spoof account

Brief chat with a Forest fan on Facebook, he reckons not.

Why would anyone fake the account of someone only a handful of people have ever heard of?

Wolves agree sale of Neves to Saudi team for £47m.

I know superstars the end of thier careers have started going there for huge financial paydays but this is a very good player in his pomp at 26.

Madness  or sign of things to come?

he clearly prefers money to playing at the top of his game.

Never trust a top-knot

the bloke is a balloon knot.

If they start chucking silly money at 26 year olds, who's to say they can't make it a competitive league? Will be interesting to look back in 10 years time and by interesting I mean horrific. I know we look at what happened in China but did they have government level backing?

[Smirker]

The scale of it is too big to ever have a top league.

Its just not gonna happen unless they buy FIFA, UEFA and CONMEBOL and then move everything over. Which obviously isn't gonna happen.

I don’t know how anyone can want to play in that horrific, fun-free, depressing, medieval hell hole.

Bet he’s glad he’s leaving it.

I was really surprised when i saw this story earlier. I think Neves is a really good player, already a millionaire, why would sacrifice the best years of your career ahead when you are already financially secure for life.

Maybe he feels public executions are what’s missing from his almost perfect life.

I'd be interested to know the length of his Saudi contract.  If it's 4 years, he's basically retiring.  But if it's 2-years, he'll still only be 28 and about £50m richer, so maybe he's thinking make the money now, and then move for free and have 3-4 years of trying for trophies that actually mean something after that?  It's a big risk, the football world could move on in that time.  It's also possible he's one of those players that sees it as a job, nothing more, and he's just out to make as much cash as he can before quitting to play golf or something?

I also wonder if he'll just become the Saudi version of Oscar, the Brazilian who went to China from Chelsea? One of the richest players on the planet now, but effectively retired from competitive football at 26.
