Summer 2024 Transfer Window Discussion - Rumours and Links welcome

[dibraidio]

Hannibal didn't exactly pull up any trees at Birmingham. The Elephant in the room though is Man Utd's valuation of the lad. I might be wrong but we could have had Tella for less and thought it was too much.

[MeeActon1]

Wondering whether people still think they are funny regurgitating the Driver/ Lansbury links as a joke...surely they have been done to death

File with the price of a twix and the tedious Dyche omelette

[ŽižkovClaret]

Can we continue with this new trend of keeping posts brief?

After all, I came here for a quick update on potential signings and outgoings, not a Hannibal Lecture!

Hey zizkov... who's your favourite french winger that Burnley sold to west ham?

Yep..... proper corny that.

I reckon a chat with SP over a nice glass of Chianti wiill convince Hannibal...

[ŽižkovClaret]

Just be glad we didn't sign his brother. We came close, but in the end, we signed a few players, but just one Cornet, though.

And don't forget the liver and fava beans!

[Mark the Claret]

He only has to play against rovers and put in a Kevin Ball type challenge and he'll instantly become a fans favourite

[kentonclaret]

I’ll take a punt and say that the buy back clause of £30m will never be activated.

I doubt that's real

Two very subtle Hannibal puns there dibradio.

[Zom Zom]

If it isn't genuine, then it just adds to the frustration of browsing this thread. Why would anybody do that?

[AGENT_CLARET]

If he signs surly his announcement video will be one of these

My thoughts exactly, but the tweeter has 200k followers

[Tall Paul]

It a genuine tweet, but not a credible account.

[gandhisflipflop]

Because people are attention seeking tossers. Not a dig at zom btw it’s aimed at twatter posts.

[ŽižkovClaret]

We aren't signing players based on the announcement video potential, are we?

[jtv]

I couldn't keep up with this thread today. Can someone please list CONFIRMED ins and outs in the past 24 hours?

[claretonthecoast1882]

Possibly, Stefan Kuntz was at Gawthorpe today and the club have just bought the audio to "This bloke came up to me" by Derek and Clive

[Blyclaret]

Don’t know much about Hannibal … but he’s got some engine … box to box midfielder with a tackle in him

[Tall Paul]

[AfloatinClaret]

...Lots of knowledgeable people on this board...

But sadly far more who are utter twonks.

Have we ever ??

In No one

One for the youngsters there COTC

[Vegas Claret]

I just had a quick look at one of the Man United forums (don't worry I used incognito mode, don't want the wife finding out) and the general valuation of their fans seems to be 5-8 million for Hannibal which I would concur with

[TsarBomba]

Nicolas Madsen to QPR from Westerlo- €3.75M.

He was very loosely mentioned yesterday as possible target.

[TheFamilyCat]

Lucy Farrell to Stockport on loan.

[Woodleyclaret]

Andy's daughter ?

Hannibal didn't exactly pull up any trees at Birmingham. The Elephant in the room though is Man Utd's valuation of the lad. I might be wrong but we could have had Tella for less and thought it was too much.

The numbers I was told was £8-15m. No idea how accurate that is but it’s way cheaper than Tella.

I would say the lower end of that scale is a very good investment, the upper end maybe a bit of a risk. Anything less a bargain.

Think it’s done now.

Tella completely different player, we should of absolutely spent 15m on tella last summer

Good player that fits our model.

Only 21 and will only improve.

He will definitely add some steel and energy to the midfield.

Hannibal and Cullen together is frightening at this level with Brownhill then able to push up into the number 10, especially in away games.

I’m assuming Mejbri is the Berge replacement.

Certainly an interesting one, struggling to see what he offers us that maybe massengo doesn’t. But il leave judgement until we see him in a clarets top.

Gut is telling me this will be a good signing. Interestingly a man United mate of mine is saying he’s surprised there letting him go, he thought he would potentially move up the pecking order if Mctominay were to leave.

[SirBob]

Tella was sold for £20 million last summer

[Hedontplayforyou]

Are we expecting any announcements in/out today?

[summitclaret]

And we paid circa €18m for Tresor. Almighty cock up.

[bfcjg]

Hannibal caused us quite a few problems when we played Brum, tough, aggressive, box to box and good at breaking up play . It is the sort of player we need in the Championship.

[123EasyasBFC]

On paper it looked good business but it just hasn’t worked out

[TsarBomba]

Can’t imagine Humphreys is too far off.

[Fretters]

Not yet. If we can get him on the pitch, he would be a huge asset in the Championship. Belgian player of the year, let's not forget, something neither Benson or Zaroury achieved.

[ArmchairDetective]

In a way after seeing Brownhill play in our opening two games, maybe Brownhill is Berge's replacement and Hannibal is Brownhill's replacement.

[Jakubs Tash]

If/when Berge goes, I still think he needs replacing by a ball playing midfielder. I don’t know much about Hannibal but I’d don’t think he’s that type from what I’ve seen.

Who will play Cullen’s role when he is injured/suspended? I don’t see a current midfielder with enough technical ability to play it well enough.

I still think we’re short.

[Guller Bull]

I know this is a transfer /rumour thread but what has happened to Sambo? Not heard anything mentioned about him. Is he in and around the first team squad or is he needing time?

[morninbob]

We're having to fill the bench with homegrown players to make our quota.

[123EasyasBFC]

With what looks like a gentleman’s agreement between Parker and weghorst to have him in the squad until he gets his move, let’s see if Tresor comes back, Parker can do some man management with him and get him firing. Obviously there’s a player there

[FeedTheArf]

Tella completely different player, we should of absolutely spent 15m on tella last summer

Tella was sold for way more than that.

[gawthorpe_view]

Probably just finishing off the Mr Humphries of 'Are You Being Served' announcement video.
