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

[andyh]

As our former CEO explained we can not buy from Chelsea in this window. If we do go for Jackson, initially, it will have to be a deal similar to AG's.

But it can’t be a loan can it ?

[kippaxvilla2]

No because that would be two loans from the same PL club.  Not allowed.

You can’t loan two players from the same club.

What if they sell him to Annecy then they loan him to us?

[olaftab]

Ah yes Purslow did say something  that involves Strasbourg.

So we can forget talking about Jackson.

[cdbearsfan]

Unless Watkins leaves.

[kippaxvilla2]

What if they sell him to Annecy then they loan him to us?

No coz he can’t be registered with three clubs during same window.

[Ger Regan]

Think its that he can't play for 3 clubs, not just be registered

[cdbearsfan]

Correct.

It wasn't a serious proposal anyway.

[kippaxvilla2]

Yes in which case Jackson would be sat alongside Madjo on the bench until January.

[cdbearsfan]

Madjo isn't even allowed on the bench. As part of the footballing authorities' ongoing commitment to fuck Villa over, he is banned from sitting or lying down until he's twenty-seven. He has to spend at least eight months a year standing on rusty nails.
