Summer 2025 Transfer Window - hopes, speculation, rumours etc.

I'm not sure I'd want Asensio back.

I would take the 1978 Barcelona version right now.

[Dante Lavelli]

I'm not sure I'd want Asensio back.

Nor me. Give Rogers more responsibility and chuck those wages at a pacy right winger.,

[London Villan]

I would if he was used to rotate with Rogers. One of Unai's blind spots.

[john e]

I’d definitely have him back class player

[eamonn]

Unai's got a fancy for Jackson at Chelsea - if Watkins goes then I'd expect this signing.

Yep, I was surprised we didn’t go for him when he was at Villarreal.

We did. Thankfully the mighty Jhon Durán did a lot more than that shithead would ever have done for us.

Aston Villa agree deal for Barcelona star Fort – Catalans offload to register Rashford

https://tribuna.com/en/news/2025-08-03-aston-villa-agree-deal-for-barcelona-star-fort-catalans-offload-to-register-rashford/

Due to financial difficulties, Barcelona face restrictions on registering new players, which means the Cules must sell.

According to Lucia Font, Aston Villa have agreed a deal with Barcelona for defender Hector Fort. The Birmingham side will pay €15 million for the Spaniard. The parties will meet soon to finalize the agreement.

Fort is a Barcelona academy graduate. He made his first-team debut in 2024 and has played 30 matches for Blaugrana, providing three assists. His contract with the club runs until 2026.

Is this another player that will be loaned out and then sold, or will we play him?

[eamonn]

Please don't say he's left-footed. We have enough of the cvnts at the back (speaking as leftie, myself...).

[Sexual Ealing]

I will always welcome a Hector.

[Somniloquism]

At least his signature on the contract should be fancy. Oops, confused with the reporter.

Right back as in "right back out the door on loan".

[pauliewalnuts]

must learn to read.

Well he’s scored 24 in the league over 2 seasons so he’s not a complete dud.
