Summer 26 Transfer Window - hopes, speculation, rumours etc.

Aston Villa are understood to have made discreet enquiries to understand Neco Williams’ situation heading into the summer — Forest have opened talks for a new deal.

I'm very keen on him, think he would be ideal for us. Then again I was all for Luiz and Tammy coming back, Elliot too so not exactly on a good run!

Can just picture him walking into Bodymoor Heath on his first day, seeing Rogers and then instantly hitting the deck, writhing in agony.

At left back, we have one who is slowing up but is a good defender, who can get forward well but struggles with pace getting back, and another who is ok going forward but can’t defend for shit. Neco Williams solves both of these problems. Big fat yes from me. Perhaps he could bring a Gibbs-White shaped friend with him too.

Solves one problem but adds a significant wage issue; unless we can shift one or both of our current LBs. Personally I think we are facing enough change so heat avoiding this.

Williams covers right back too, not sure if he prefers playing on left Denis Irwin style. If he was coming in then one of Digne or Maatsen would be going. Maybe a good time to move Digne on. He's done very well for us but we do need to reduce the age profile of the squad.
