Summer 2022 Burnley Transfer Window Rumours - Links - Discussion

[RVclaret]

I'd fancy Collins and Bayliss-Harwood as centre halves in the championship.
They are both right footed though.
City won't loan him to us without a guarantee he plays a lot of games.

HB played as LCB for England 21s last night. Poor opposition but from the bits I watched he looked very assured on the ball, I guess that's something you can expect from any City player.

Apart from Sterling

[bobinho]

Just to update this from the weekend...

Nick Pope linked with Forest who want to try a low ball offer, VK would want Arijanet Muric (23) from City as a replacement (Alan Nixon).

Ideal opportunity to mess around a bit with forest. I’d be jumping at it.

Placed on the left of centre before and I don't think the guarantee of games will come into it. If Kompany is confirmed as manager, I think they'll let us have him for the season and play under him again.

[Woodleyclaret]

Micheal Keane will be surplus at Everton so a loan move would be a good move

[Goobs]

Keane will jave much better offers than us, of that I am absolutely certain (assuming Everton even want rid.

[Steve-Harpers-perm]

Nixon tweeted we’ve been busy on the incoming signings front. Hopefully a busy few weeks ahead for a change.

I haven’t felt that in a long time.

As always with Burnley it’s the hope that kills you!

Last time I felt like this during a Summer was the year we got a new manager and loads of new signings.

Most exciting summer ever. That season however

I, too, was hyped up about '97/'98. Hopefully this summer's signings will be a step up from Blatherwick et al.

[RVclaret]

He also said he’ll have a few names for Sunday

[Spijed]

Forest interest in Pope could firm up - their keeper Samba has told the club he’s not renewing his contract and wants to leave this summer.

Considering Forest would be the main favourites to get relegated it seems to be an odd move should Pope decide to go there. Although Pope might think it probably won't improve his chances of getting picked for England either way.

With our potentially Welsh coaching team and our Welsh internationals, I suspect Rabbi Matondo could be high on the list

Think I saw Kompany might have wanted him this summer at Anderlecht too.

But the latest is Celtic and Rangers want him.

From my extensive YouTube scouting I can say I’d love this to happen.

Be exciting to have a forward with electric pace

Dane Richards was lightening quick!

We’d have to rename the Bob Lord Stand first…

[jrgbfc]

After resigning Barnes and Jay Rod I'd say a striker with some pace should definitely be on the shopping list.

Just someone with some genuine pace, please!!

Think this will wet your palate

[Hedontplayforyou]

Matondo looks like he would be a real handful , he was also on loan at Stoke playing 10 games and scoring 1 goal last season. If Schalke are ready to let him go then perhaps VK will test the water for him

Think that was the season before last.

Also Matondo seems more a wide forward from the videos, using his dribbling ability with direct running.

A snail would be a good signing if its pace we want in front of our two existing strikers.

That’s right I read the wrong date

I'd love to see a snail trying to collect hoofed passes

[KRBFC]

Matondo plays wide left for Cercle and he's bobbins

[JarrowClaret]

I find it interesting that people think Nick Pope will end up at Forest for me I would hugely shocked if Forest interests him. He might as well stay with us a year and see his options at the end going there will not enhance his England chances! Now if a Brighton or a wolves etc came knocking that would be a different story.

It’s been gone over a few times over the years on here.

Realistically who’s going to spend the money we want for him. 16m is currently the record in the prem for a keeper 30 years old or older.

I suspect we will be looking for more than that. I just can’t see who’s going to pay that kind of money. 15-20m and he will be at Forrest

[NewClaret]

Wouldn’t it just.

[NewClaret]

Don’t fancy a little wager on his sale price do you Newcastle?

[Newcastleclaret93]

Hmmm interesting, what do you think we will get?

[NewClaret]

More than £20m, up to £40m. Or we won’t sell at all.

I don’t think Alan is the type of bloke to accept low fees for World Class players, not least because we can’t afford to.

I see it completely differently. It’s not sustainable to keep letting valuable assets leave for free. Pope has 1 year left. Surely we won’t keep him and let him walk for nothing.

[JR1882]

We have some power here. He has a years option and he will be 32 by the end of that, not old for a goalie but unlikely to be a Number 1 choice for a big prem club by then.

Also no one is paying 40m. I think £25m gives us a decision to make but I don’t see anyone in the bottom half paying that for a 30 year old keeper.

That’s exactly what I mean.

Even if we got 25m that is 9m over the current record. That is a serious amount of money for a keeper. I honestly don’t see a team paying it unless newcastle fancy him (but he doesn’t really fit Howes style).

We can't afford to turn down £20m and let him walk for free, you mean? His value isn't going up, only down.

So you think possibly £15m, tops £20. Your top is my bottom, so say a wager whereby I pay out every £1m below £20m and you do likewise above?

What happens if no one wants him?

[NewClaret]

I’m assuming Charlton have a 20% sell-on clause, so it’d be £16m. 2 years left (we have a further years option).

Promotion is worth what? £70m? I reckon Pace would keep him for £20m or less. I’m prepared to put my money where my mouth is though.

[NewClaret]

What happens if no one wants him?

All bets are off.

Why on earth do you not think Pope will be in demand at 32 ?
He’ll not even be at the Peak of his powers then and should have another 6-7 years ahead of him at the top. I find your logic puzzling.

How many keepers at 32 consistently play in the prem?

Genuine question I have no idea.

If we tell Bale that Burnley actually is Barcelona, perhaps he might come as well!

[Conroy92]

Pope shouldn't be any cheaper than 25m, he's perhaps shown he is actually world class this season. People quoting "most expensive keeper prices" forget one thing, prices rocket every year. Don't forget Wood became one of the most expensive 30+ strikers in the last window.
Pope's worth to us has to be, at a minimum, what we would A) need to pay to sign an addition- although there's arguments to say we may already have enough with Hennessy and BPF and B) how much his contribution relates to promotion and the windfall received from that.

Even at 25m I think someone's getting a bargain.

He’s a good keeper? But world class, come on. If he was world class top teams would be trying to snap him up.
