Summer 2024 Transfer Window Discussion - Rumours and Links welcome

[RVclaret]

We've clearly made an offer, Rooney all but confirmed that in his presser.

Reckons it was a while ago. Which again doesn’t add up with Rooney’s comment. We’ll see but he’s generally good for us.

[123EasyasBFC]

Nixon reckons the whole Whittaker story is nonsense and there’s nothing in it. Weird one.

I wonder if Nixon is referring to the loan offer being nonsense, not the actual fact we have bid

[Casper2]

I think some people expect a young lad we signed for 4 million Euros who is 25 minutes into his brand new life and playing out of position to be as good as Mo Salah (who was useless when he was younger) - if he was superb at everything he wouldn't be playing for us in the Championship

It’s a joke , supporters thinking a professional football could actually control a football, whatever next , a goalie being able to catch .

[RVclaret]

Not in the q&a he had with someone, referred to the whole story and said he’s told it’s not happening, but also that he expects a very busy day today here (obv).

I just hope it’s not back to the dyche and garlick days where we have links and it looks like we are trying to sign players and then we end up with just the 2 we know about and leave the window feeling light in positions

[Jakubclaret]

For a club that's supposed to be interested in all these signings we don't half go about it the wrong way when it comes down to the crunch.

[Newcastleclaret93]

I just hope it’s not back to the dyche and garlick days where we have links and it looks like we are trying to sign players and then we end up with just the 2 we know about and leave the window feeling light in positions

Surely there’s got to be at least one marquee signing this window.

[burnleytom]

I’m worried about travers now because arsenal are in for Neto at Bournemouth so they might not let travers leave, then if Trafford goes we need to find a keeper somewhere

Bournemouth have also got Kepa in, so even if Neto goes to Arsenal, Travers position in the pecking order would be the same as two days ago.

[123EasyasBFC]

Bournemouth have also got Kepa in, so even if Neto goes to Arsenal, Travers position in the pecking order would be the same as two days ago.

But if Neto goes to Arsenal, travers would only be a kepa injury away from being Bournemouths number 1

[PWBFC]

I'd put Hannibal in that category.

Sarmiento can play all across so he could go right. Or Koleosho right, Anthony left and sarmiento 10.

Sarmiento has only played from the right 6 times in his career. Most of these were short sub appearances. It would be odd to sign him for that role

[ervi34]

Travers staying at Bournemouth.

[123EasyasBFC]

Sarmiento has only played from the right 6 times in his career. Most of these were short sub appearances. It would be odd to sign him for that role

Played on the right team on Tuesday and scored, all be it against a league 2 side

[Woodleyclaret]

We don't need another keeper ideally Traff sold and Hldaky as No1 Green No2

[Tricky Trevor]

Sarmiento has only played from the right 6 times in his career. Most of these were short sub appearances. It would be odd to sign him for that role

And the first half on Tuesday he did very little wide right. Second half he moved in off his line and he was excellent.

O'Rourke is confident we'll get him but he's not reliable.

[1989_claret]

https://www.footballinsider247.com/burn ... d-sources/

He’s a respectable journalist who is usually correct in the past for us? However, he’s just stating the obvious here that we’re submitting a new bid. Nothing to say it’s being accepted or even considered.

[gandhisflipflop]

Would he go as far as to write that article if there was nothing in it? Far easier to post a throw away tweet.

[Commy]

I might be wrong but I can't see teams like Millwall and Plymouth agreeing to loan first team players with an obligation to buy.

[Quicknick]

I'd put Hannibal in that category.

So would I, but we could do with another one.

[bfcjg]

McNally to Bristol ?

[UpTheClaretsFCBK]

Fee agreed for Trafford according to a few sources. 20million. I'm happy just to get our money back on him.

[midlands claret]

be nice if we could do that with foster

Link?

Who is on private jet watch from Exeter airport?

Who is on private jet watch from Exeter airport?

Or Newquay airport. Although, I think he lives near Exeter.

Esteve to Hoffenhiem?
Fabrizio Romano

https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/burnl ... me-esteve/

[BigGaz]

I might be wrong but I can't see teams like Millwall and Plymouth agreeing to loan first team players with an obligation to buy.

In Flemmings case, I believe his contract is up at the end of the season.

Loan with an obligation to buy may be better then him walking for nothing now that they both know he can make an upwards step.

We're bending them over a barrel a little bit actually, I actually think it's a good tactic.

[Swizzlestick]

Esteve to Hoffenhiem?
Fabrizio Romano

https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/burnl ... me-esteve/

Was mentioned the day. Trying to do the classic loan than option. Fairly sure we’ve told them where to go.

[Commy]

Esteve to Hoffenhiem?
Fabrizio Romano

https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/burnl ... me-esteve/

We had better ask for £40m

[Steddyman]

Esteve to Hoffenhiem?
Fabrizio Romano

https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/burnl ... me-esteve/

Old news and Romano just doing his usual agent sponsored post. We aren't going to accept anything less than £30m and they aren't going to be paying that.

[burnley007]

Do we think there is anything at all in this??

This would be frickin awesome

[Swizzlestick]

Saw Rovers have signed Baker from Stoke who I think I would have preferred ahead of Laurent.

Would've been at Genk with Tresor so an interesting link

Renimds me of the old punchline..............& the police have nothing to go on!

[123EasyasBFC]

Orban was at gent not genk

[Ightenhill_Claret]

Think we were linked with Oban when VK was here. Looks like he hasn't been able to continue his incredible scoring record since moving to France.
Think we'll see a lot of ITK accounts on Twitter throwing different names around for clubs like ours.

[Stockbrokerbelt]

Renimds me of the old punchline..............& the police have nothing to go on!

Is that what they call a toilet in Scotland?

[Blyclaret]

Much prefer Whittaker to Oban . Knows the division scores goals. We don’t need an experiment at this stage.

[midlands claret]

we already have one in foster

[Blyclaret]

We need a striker … Foster not impressed. Houdini untried …Jay a brilliant servant to Burnley but sadly a step too far now.

[burnley007]

Much prefer Whittaker to Oban . Knows the division scores goals. We don’t need an experiment at this stage.

I want both. Obviously

[Quicknick]

Much prefer Whittaker to Oban . Knows the division scores goals. We don’t need an experiment at this stage.

I agree. I want a permanent striker, too, not someone just passing through.

That's a bit of a risk given long term injuries to Beyer and Ekdal, but potential good news re Esteve.
