Winter 25-26 Transfer Window - hopes, speculation, rumours etc.

Aston Villa are interested in Strasbourg's 23-year-old Argentinian striker Joaquin Panichelli, with Chelsea and West Ham also monitoring him. (Teamtalk)

Can't see him going anywhere but Chelsea and it is teamtalk.

I mentioned him somewhere last week and it is nice to be linked to him even if he's likely to end up with Chelsea. I reckon he's going to be special in a couple of years and he's exactly the sort of player we should be looking at to replace Ollie. The other thing of course is they've already signed Joao Pedro and Delap in the summer, they seem to rate Guiu highly and they're already taking Emegha from Strasbourg next summer so do theyeven have space to take him?

If they do then Chelsea will have at least a few forwards going out as well and I think Joao Pedro in particular would do well with us.

Not least because we'd then have a penalty taker.

Ivan Toney would be gettable I think, as he'd be looking to get into World Cup consideration.

And we could use someone who can take a penalty.

Might cause dressing room disruptions though,as he'd be contending with Ollie for club and country.

Might be advisable to pass on Toney. We could do without his disruptions.

Hasn’t he just been arrested?

I thought he was a Nose?

I assume you are referencing the Z to the Holte a few seasons back? I believe his agent at the time (and maybe still) was a nose and put him up to it

Doesn’t Toney has a tax issue if he returns to UK before end of  May 26?

Fuck Toney. If he had any ambition, he wouldn't have gone to Saudi Arabia.
