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

The Athletic article mentioned that Unai persuading Morgan to give us one more season. So it seems the whisperings have been happening for awhile.

Yes, it’s doing the rounds that Rogers is very much part of next season plans.
I think the fact that he has just bagged his first medal could play a big part.
It would be interesting to think what Emerys priority will be next season.

The story was for last summer that he persuaded that extra season which has just finished. Hopefully Morgz decides he likes it here now we have won something AND we are back in the CL but who knows.

Nope, this is about next season.

You sure? This was published at the end of last summer’s transfer window*.

*Which I marked 8.5/10 in the relevant thread, much to the merriment of other posters. Who’s laughing now?

I met a bloke in the Hotel bar in Istanbul, it’s good enough for me.

£20m - Malen, £15m - Guessand, £5m - Dobbin, £15m - Barranechea, Elliot, Sancho, Luiz, £5m - Illing-Junior, £2m - Barry and £3m - Bailey all going will surely raise a few quid and positively effect SCR?  Selling Rogers now would be hugely disappointing.

I get about £65m from that lot.  Hopefully CL qualification would mean we could fund about about £100m of transfers without selling any ‘crown jewels’.  Three solid additions appears very possible.

I’d be disappointed / underwhelmed with Harry Wilson. He’s fine, nothing special, and 29.

Harry Wilson is a one season trap.

Well, I mean, it wasn't a great transfer window. Obvious gem in Rogers withstanding.

Rogers was signed 2.5 years ago wasn’t he?

I was on about summer 25. As I said at the time, the success or failure of a transfer window can only be judged on results. So now I think my 8.5 rating was a bit harsh.
