“🚨EXCL: Unidese have reached an agreement in principle with Aston Villa to sign Keinan Davis✅ “

Great move Keinan!

“The player will travel to Italy in the next 24-48 hours to complete medical!”

Oh well, never mind.

Unidese?

Anyway, brilliant move for him. Think he'll do well there.

Friuli is a lovely corner of the world. I’d take a pay cut to live there. 😁

Davis has not had a sniff under Emery so he was never going  to keep him as back up and it wouldn't be fair to really.

What’s Tammy Abrahams injury status? I wonder if we’re not seeing value right now and going to wait until the next window to revisit him as an option.

I don't understand the obsession with signing Tammy - he was good in the championship but is he better than Watkins?

I am hopeful that next summer our big signing will be a forward (Toney from Brentford)

Yep, they play in Serie B. Finished above Nopali and Laizo last season. Would've been promoted but they drew with Atalanata on the last day.

Fati to Brighton is a surprise, apparently De Zerbi was the deciding factor. Can't really argue with that.
The Brighton board are certainly very good at the moment.

I agree, he would be a massive gamble.

Nailed on for Chelsea or Spurs in Jan. I'd put his mortgage on it.

I don't get this with Abrahams. He had one good season with us in the Championship, and I'm not saying he's a bad player. However, he's not particularly quick, not particularly mobile, not particularly strong, and his hold up play is poor.
