Summer transfer window 2023 - rumours, links and discussion.

[bobinho]

Never was a chance of signing Tresor and I have said that from the very first rumours... Cloud cuckoo land speculation!.. He will be going to a far wealthier and larger club than ours.

Anyone else read this and think “ God I hope this comes off now…”

Confirmed by Richie Wellens about 14 minutes in
Lawrence Vigouroux is on his way North .

Top Class Keeper for the O's the last couple of seasons .
Wouldn't look out of place in the championship to be honest .

Whether he makes it in the Premier League time will tell .

We are gutted to lose him .

Up the O's

Not been since 87 ( Yeah That game )

East east east London! as the Orient boys shout. I used to live down there and a good mate of mine followed the Os. Remember going to a Leeds match back in '09, I think. Orient came back to draw after being 2-0 down to the white sh1te. Great evening. Good luck for next season.

Cheers .
How do you lot think you'll
go in the Premier league under VK ?

10th.

[elwaclaret]

Orient have always been my London club, probably because I had Ralph Coates swaps a plenty in my old Planini album and I loved the kit. Our histories will always be connected by that day on the Turf, as well. Good to see you on the up.

We’ll settle for staying up, and most expect we will… but we were being optimistic hoping we could get as high as the playoffs this time last season, so your guess is a good as most of ours. In all honesty you could tell me 6-16 and I wouldn’t argue.

[Anthonini]

Depending on the transfers between 4 and 10.

Its a phenomenally tough league

Hopefully clear of trouble with some good stuff to watch over the season

Thanks. I believe he’s one of three signings that are very, very close.

[Stockbrokerbelt]

Depending on transfers & my prayers, 1st or 2nd.

[randomclaret2]

Thanks. I believe he’s one of three signings that are very, very close.

Vigouroux, O"Shea and A.N.Other Tony ?

[ClaretTony]

Vigouroux, O"Shea and A.N.Other Tony ?

Possibly

[Boxy]

Vigouroux, O"Shea and A.N.Other Tony ?

Would assume the 3rd is that dortmund lad

[RVclaret]

Would assume the 3rd is that dortmund lad

Was wondering if we’d still be in for him given the O’Shea signing leaves us with 4 first choice centre halves + Taylor.

[Pearcey]

I’m going for Tella!

[eastcoastclaret]

Obafemi?

[Cap]

Possibly

Don't tease

[Lancasterclaret]

Clarke

[IanMcL]

A.N.Other gets about a bit.

[Jakubs Tash]

Thanks. I believe he’s one of three signings that are very, very close.

As in 3 medicals done?

[NewClaret]

Thanks. I believe he’s one of three signings that are very, very close.

I was told at lunchtime today that there had been two medical a today. No further details other than one was an “attacking player”. I assume the other was O’Shea and that the Orient Keeper was already done.

Hopefully thehistorylecturer (or whichever account he can remember the password for atm) can confirm with a like and Tony can confirm if the attacking player info is correct.

[ArmchairDetective]

Not so sure about that third. But maybe we're referring to different players.

[NewClaret]

As in you think we’ve signed a third but not an attacking player.

No comment from Tony so possibly wrong

[Casper2]

No, I believe one has fallen through. Not one of the two CT named. But my hesitancy is that I'm not used to having transfer gossip and so I'm conscious that other posters such as you and CT might know things that I don't

[WiscoClaret]

For what it’s worth….
I’ve heard bits of rumors that we are still after and are actively working on: Jacob Bruun Larsen

[arise_sir_charge]

Surely the third is Obafemi.

[agreenwood]

Was a promising player at Dortmund, but struggled with injuries at Hoffenheim and missed half of last season after groin surgery.

Reports this morning that Hoffenheim trying to offload him and would accept less than £2m.

Was at Anderlecht with Kompany on loan, so maybe he’s thinking it’s a cheap gamble.

[123EasyasBFC]

So the general idea from the thread late last night is, we are working on 3 players, 2 which we know about as they are reported in the media but then

Some have been told 3rd is very close
Some been told 3rd is an attacker
Someone else that one has fallen through

Least the information show how active we are and it’s better than seeing our name linked to a player alongside 5 or 6 other clubs

Keep the info coming you guys that get it!

[Burnley1989]

I did see a bloke in a Dortmund jacket yesterday, looked a little old to be a footballer though, could have been his Grandad I guess…

Confirmation of O'Shea from the oracle

Funny that, I have seen him all season in JHU too, must be a scout

Trust me, my transfer gossip is very hit and miss so I wouldn’t assume that. I think a twitter account would call me tier 6 Last I got is that we were signing or held a strong interest in Undav in Jan and look how that worked out

Only posted that last night as was reading through the gossip and saw Tony’s post about 3 being close and it tied in with the info of two medicals, since I’d heard the Orient keeper had been done a little while.

I assume the third is Jack Clarke

[Pickles]

Wouldn't the third be confirmation of Obafemi's loan-to-permanent?

[RVclaret]

I assume the third is Jack Clarke

Would have been reported in the media already. Will be Obafemi.

[123EasyasBFC]

Would obafemi have another medical though with his loan being just made perm

[davideyresleftear]

Last I got is that we were signing or held a strong interest in Undav in Jan and look how that worked out

To be fair to you, clubs probably have strong interest in dozens of players, yet we only hear about the ones with concrete bids or actual transfers. Even if pursuing a player doesn't make it that far, doesn't mean we didn't have interest.

[agreenwood]

Reporter for HLN in Belgium & Holland suggesting Palace close to a surprisingly cheap deal for Tresor, but the player isn’t keen.

Not sure if €4m is wages or transfer fee. It’s a poor translation.

[thehistorylecturer61]

I assume the third is Jack Clarke

Not Jack Clarke - try again

[thehistorylecturer61]

No it wasn’t Obafemi …

All in good time lads .. all in good time patience is a virtue

[Pickles]

Ah the History Lecturer. This means something's imminent. Settle down, books open...

[thehistorylecturer61]

Not always - they don’t always sign for a variety of reasons hence best to wait ..

The cheap deal is for federa not tresor, think what he’s trying to say is federa is a cheap replacement for tresor

[agreenwood]

I completely misread that then

[thehistorylecturer61]

Would obafemi have another medical though with his loan being just made perm

Meant to say he’d have had a full medical when he first came in on loan they don’t want saddling with an injured loan player

[NewClaret]

Not Jack Clarke - try again

Well at least it confirms my medical info was correct

[Tricky Trevor]

Was the Obafemi deal with an obligation to buy or not?
If it was there is no discussion, he’s signing.
If it wasn’t has he shown enough to warrant signing him?
