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

[OCD]

I think Ollie might be off in the summer and we would get someone else in.

maybe but who would buy him?  We’d want a decent chunk of cash to justify the disruption it might cause. Whilst he isn’t perfect, the team has been built around what he can do.

[Rudy65]

We don't need to get to 70% but an agreed figure lower then the current one with the aim of getting to 70 within the three seasons. However paying Sancho £300k a week probably hasn't helped towards that and with Malen one of our top earners, it isn't a surprise he has been sacrificed.

A mere £165k pw apparently

[Rudy Can't Fail]

£18m for Abraham apparently, 4.5 year deal.

Hmmmmm

Tammy and Ollie to rotate for the next few years whilst the big 17 year old grows up?

It's not a huge fee really but still 4-5M more than I would pay for him.

Isn't there also a fee to Roma we'd have to pay?

Don’t think so.  they’re paying Roma 11m and we are instantly giving them “18m”. So they get 7m profit, with no risk.

Didn’t realize until now or quite possibly forgotten that he scored 26 goals in 40 games for us.
And 21 goals in 58 appearances for Chavski, also 17 goals in his first season at Roma.

I’m ok with 18 million for a player with premier league and European experience, plus he knows us well and will settle quick.
No brainer for me.

Me too. Will lift the mood.

Precisely. This notion he hasn’t done it in the PL isn’t factual. Plus having other top league experienced, CL and Europa experience and national team. For that price for a back up or a proper contender to Ollie which he needs is a good pick at that price.

[cdbearsfan]

He's certainly looking a more attractive option as each day goes by.

[Chip Butty 111]

Compared to the clown show of Sancho, Elliot and Guessand, Abraham at £18M will be a steal. Gives Ollie a rest when needed as he ain't superman. We have got ourselves into a huge mess with injuries and panic buys in the summer not contributing. We desperately need CL football next season to keep the wolf from the door.

[eamonn]

Who's left from when he was here last time, Ty and Ginny?

From the Mail

West Ham and Aston Villa midfield target Quinten Timber was left out of Feyenoord’s starting team on Sunday night amid talks over his future. Marseille have made an offer to the Dutch club.

[Ozzjim]

Marseille have practically signed him haven't they? Looks a good player.
