Which is better but still a small sample size/gamble.

Kellyman has played 153 minutes of senior football. Iling has played 36 times for a Juve side, that includes the Champions League. Enzo played 36 games Serie B. There's no serious comparison.

I thought Frosinone were is Serie A?

It was Serie A not B, which only further underlines your point.

Given the comment that Unai made after the last game of the season, something like, 'let's get the PSR stuff sorted first' and the other one about 'there are no limits to our ambition', I suspect we are happy to take the young prospects like Illing-Junior and Barranechea, as we are still in the market for a couple of bigger names, including, for example, Matteo Guendouzi and Alex Baena.  Unai will improve the two Juventus signings even more and if it means losing players like Duran, Kellyman and Iroegbunam, to 'sort the PSR stuff', so be it.  They may turn out to be really useful players, but I think none will be as big as Unai's ambitions.

I get being disappointed that we won’t see how Kellyman develop in our colours, but to get £20m is brilliant. Add to the £20m we got for Carney, and possibly another fat wedge for Duran. That will be the best part £90m on three players who might make it there.

Bogarde being looked at by Forest for £4m.

Aren't they also treading a fine line?  More PSR Workaround?  I wonder which one of their players is coming our way?

Straight swap for Morgan Gibbs White. Take it or leave it.

T'interwebnet and the Birmingham Mail talking about a move for Lamare Bogarde to Nottingham Forest - £4m.

He spent the last 2 seasons on loan at Bristol Rovers.

Apart from a very early doors link with someone called Hermanso we have not had much links to right sided CB's or Carlos going either

Emery's also basically said that he doesn't believe in signing players for the sake of it. I think we can safely assume that the 2 Juve kids will be part of the squad.

Now that one, I wouldn't be too concerned about.

He is very fast & versatile, but I dint think he particularly pulled up any trees at Bristol Rovers.

There is more than likely another couple of levels to his game, but for where we are, he isn't one that I would be too concerned about losing for a decent enough fee.

£4M is about right, I would say.

We've supposedly enquired for Brais Méndez from Real Sociedad too. 27-year old Spanish left footed attacking midfielder who's also wanted by clubs like Man United and Roma.

Assuming you’re talking about Hermoso, he’s left-sided.

I think/hope that our proper business is going to be done in July.

We're just clearing doing some creative accounting to make sure we're PSR compliant by the end of the month; and maybe even building up a bit of extra room for big transfers.
