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

[Brazilian Villain]

Is there any “reliable” reports? I can’t see anything.

Zero

He follows Villa, Adidas, Garcia, and Lander Emery on Instagram. What more do you need?

[Ozzjim]

This summer gets more and more crazy.

If Watkins went signing Jackson and a young physical striker makes sense as Jackson played as a wide forward at Villarreal for Emery with a more physical centre forward.

It feels like way too much change. Over half the team once Konsa or Martínez goes. And we'd still have to shift Abraham.

If Konsa, Martinez, or Watkins go I think that’s too much. But let’s see.

[Tuscans]

I think as it stands we have the capacity to do another £75M - £95M on incomings whilst keeping within UEFAs cap.

Fingers crossed.

At this rate we will be going from the second oldest team in the league to the youngest in one transfer window!

If Ollie goes, and Espi comes in, we'll have Abraham, Brian and the 21 yr old. Why waste £65m on Jackson?
And if Watkins stays and Espi comes in will we sell Abraham?


Note: ESPI - extra-sensory perceptive instincts?

[LennyVilla]

In the one full season Jackson worked with Emery he played him for a total of 158 minute sin the league and didn’t start him once, and although he did start to play him a bit more in 22/23, he only scored 1 goals for him before Wmry left for us in October 2022.

So I think the “worked with emery before” type links are just lazy journalism. We also can’t really buy off Chelsea and have 3 IMO better strikers than him already.

Really hope the reports are untrue as it would be a massive waste of our limited funds.
