Transfer Rumours Thread - NO FINANCIAL DISCUSSION

[Goody1975]

not sure about that, Sheff Utd look very strong

Just central defensively, even if the German lad comes in I think a lot of us will still have a nagging doubt about that left sided centre half.

The rest is fine, in fact from where we started it's unbelievable.

[Goody1975]

I reckon Obafemi will join.

Swansea are entertaining bids, benched him last night - they're broke and they need a sale. They expected interest in Piroe and have had none.

This is just brinkmanship and seeing who blinks first over a couple of million quid - he'll be ours (late on).

(No source, just common sense).

Unless we are miles apart on valuation then I agree.

[gawthorpe_view]

to be fair, Farke knows **** all about defending if his time at Norwich is any indication

agree, outstanding window and arguably a more effective squad than the one we finished with last season

Certainly appear better equipped for the challenge in most areas.

[123EasyasBFC]

Life as a Burnley always leaves you wanting more in the window, it’s been the best window in regards to incomings and we are still going to be left feeling like we are a left sided cb short, just like we where a winger short for 3 seasons

[Vegas Claret]

not sure how reliable this guy is but I'm still posting it regarding the option

[Vegas Claret]

wow, this is a big loss for Sheff Utd

[Lancasterclaret]

wow, this is a big loss for Sheff Utd

Been looking to leave since relegation, and I think he's in the last year of his contract

[jedi_master]

Blades fans I know (live/work in Chesterfield - so, that's plenty!) believe that Berge going is the difference between Auto's and Play-Offs for them.

Their midfield has very little athleticism bar him.

For all our other transfer business we've been very prudent and making offers that are more aligned with the 1.5 million that Swansea paid for Obafemi than the 10 million that clubs like Metz, Coventry and Swansea have been asking for promising young players. We want to be that team that buys cheap and makes the big profits so these sort of deals for unproven players just don't make any sense.

My read on it is that they want £10m but knew they'd never get it.

Seems we have so far made two offers, with the second possibly being around £7m according to their forum (that will be HEAVILY incentivised I would think with probably only a third or something up front). Meet in the middle job as time moves on, £8m headline figure - in reality probably costing us about £4m now and the full amount only if we go up. Pure conjecture from me.

[jdrobbo]

He is an outstanding player. Everything goes through him

[RVclaret]

Their local reporters suggesting its false

O'Rouke and Mike Mgrath putting it out suggest otherwise but I guess time will tell

[LongsideClaret]

Medical happening now. Deal does include an option.

Obafemi looking unlikely.

[Vegas Claret]

look slike Forest have finally put up enough money for Bowler from Blackpool

[ervi34]

Loaned him straight to Olympiakos.

Shame about Obafemi, that would have made it a 10/10 window

[jedi_master]

Blackpool getting only £2m for Bowler is a really crap deal, one year left or not.

They're a one man team and looked absolutely terrible last night. I fear for them now - and I am still at a loss as to how we drew 3-3!

[Pearcey]

If Swansea need to sell to balance the books then it might still fall in our favour.

If we played them again in this last week we'd have destroyed them but strangely enough I think the Blackpool game did us more good than harm. The players and coaching staff learned more in the second 45 minutes than if we carried on winning games without having a bad day at the office.

Thanks Seasiders!!

not sure where you've seen that, being reported as between 5-6

[jedi_master]

not sure where you've seen that, being reported as between 5-6

Was what my mate just said on Teams to me whilst I was at work. It did seem low, 5-6m would be far more appropriate.

Bizarre that Forest have taken till deadline day to do that deal when chasing him all summer considering they have thrown money around like confetti.

[RVclaret]

Andy Jones confirms loan with option to buy if promoted for Meyer. Don’t mind that.

[NewClaret]

Andy Jones reporting the Beyer deal has an option if promoted.

Has Nixon anything to say on any signings?

especially as they've been throwing big money about. Bad move for the player I think, can't see him getting much game time tbh

[Vegas Claret]

nope

I guess so, I questioned Coyley's ventures into overseas transfer market, VDS, Penny and Guerro.........blocked.

[Vegas Claret]

João Pedro stays at Watford unfortunately

[123EasyasBFC]

Jason knight is the knew Lansbury, gonna be linked every window

[burnmark]

Bobby Thomas has joined Barton at Bristol Rovers.

[giveusaB]

Read somewhere that Bowler to Forest then out on loan to Olympiakos.Same owner.

[Lancasterclaret]

Billy Gilmour going on a permanent to Brighton

That is a brilliant bit of business

I agree. Both the squad and the management team learnt a couple of valuable lessons in that game. Rather they learn them now rather than later on in the season.

[RVclaret]

Not convinced by him at all but it will be interesting to see what Potter can get from him

[Quicknick]

Would you swap squads?!

Definitely not!

[Woodleyclaret]

Billy Gilmour struggled at Norwich I think a move into Scotland might have been a better option fir him

[JimmyRobbo]

Yes, a very talented player but I wonder if he isn't another one of those Chelsea players who flash and then vanish. Not to single out Chelsea, the big clubs have numbers of these just by the law of averages. Who knows, we'll see.

[Vegas Claret]

seems we are struggling for Obafemi

[Somethingfishy]

Swansea need ready cash not maybes. Depends how desperate they are as time ticks by...IF we go back in.

[Swizzlestick]

Not so sure. Stank the place out at Norwich and attitude was called out. Looks lightweight to me too.

[Firthy]

Not convinced this will happen. Young German CB is probably the only other incoming today.

[RVclaret]

seems we are struggling for Obafemi

8m is a pretty fair offer albeit depends how much of that is add ons. Surely it can’t be ‘that’ far away though, maybe just some restructuring of the fee.

[boatshed bill]

Can we shift one or two out, please?
