Summer Transfer Window 2025 | Official Thread

[stubbo-admin]

May as well get going with this since with Sullivan at the helm, season ticket renewals slow, and the football vacuum to commence, this will soon be all the "news" there is.

Can Potter and MacCauley pull multiple rabbits out of the hat, or will Sullivan 'try really hard' with all of them before grabbing a few aging bargains from Big Willie Salthouse?

Window this close season comes in two parts:

Part 1: 1st June to 10th June
Part 2: 16th June to 1st September

I wonder if Sullivan is aware of how much he is hated and how actually incompetent he is at running a football club and doing business?

I get the impression that he is a bit like a North Korean dictator with a PR team running around him feeding him delusional bullshit views of love and adoration from everyone.

I only ask as he never seems to learn. He always lacks class and any semblance of being a decent logical human being. And window after window he seems to do his very best to derail us by doing this lowballing bollocks and fucking players / clubs about. 

Does he not learn because he is oblivious? 

The parallel with the small handed, orange autocrat across the pond is striking.

Am guessing Antonio was offered the terms that Wilson has now accepted
Could see Antonio going into a media role. Maybe as a bit of a Micah Richards type without being such an annoying twat

Maddison confirmed as an ACL so should miss the season
Good news is that he has now been installed as 3rd favourite for the PDC Darts World Championship 

[Mad Ferret]

His bezzie mate Wilson to nick his number 9 shirt.

[Lee Trundle]

Antonio has signed a 3 year contract.

Club Statement | Michail Antonio | West Ham United F.C.

ONLY JOKING!  It's just confirmation he's left which I'm a bit surprised about.  I though we might have been stupid enough to agree to any terms he wanted.

[Lee Trundle]

You'd have thought with such a huge rebuild that we'd have players in early doors to get everything all set up and ready.

Sullivan is a stupid fucking idiot.

[Swiss.]

So has John Victor signed yet or is he still in the queue behind SWP? 

[El Scorchio]

surely even we wouldn't let it go that far??

the only logical conclusion is having a buyer lined up for Areola.

 

 

I really hope not for his sake. And I hope he's aware of any other developments with goalkeepers so he can make an informed choice about his future. Likewise I hope we don't just ghost Leicester now. I sadly wouldn't put anything beyond our ownership. 

I'd have to agree if both are coming in then Areola must be on the way out. Bit fucking late in the window to completely revamp the goalkeeper position but better late than never I suppose, if it happens.

I have a suspicion we start the season with Victor and Areola on the books, as Sullivan probably wanted all along.

[greenie1]

Surely if we were to be bringing in a goalie, it would have been done by now.

Sorry, forgot, this is WHUFC, where players take a few months to get used to the Premiership.

[Mad Ferret]

Rennes are in for Areola.

[goose]

[El Scorchio]

Well we are either treating the guy fucking disgracefully if we're going to pull out after he's gone through all that with his club, or he's definitely on his way so that's at least one keeper coming. Will the lad from Leicester come in as well? That's now the question. I hope the Brazilian lad has been told, if that's the case. Be a bit shit for him if he thinks he's coming in to compete for the shirt if Hermanson comes in and he ends up riding the bench.

West Ham United’s move for John Victor has now reached the “goodbye” stage, at least according to Botafogo manager Davide Ancelotti, who admitted he’s already said his thanks to the departing goalkeeper.

Speaking to SporTV before Wednesday night’s Copa do Brasil clash against Red Bull Bragantino, Ancelotti confirmed that John’s situation was clear within the squad and that his absence from the matchday list was no surprise.“The situation with John was already clear to us yesterday,” the manager said. “I spoke to him and thanked him for everything he did for the club. His substitute is ready, and we’re happy to have him.”

Nelson Deossa another player we were linked with for about 15 minutes last week has found his way to Betis pretty sharpish...

https://en.realbetisbalompie.es/news/la ... ossa-31607

Nessun Dorma.! Sign him up. Nothing reminds me more of West Ham than standing in the pissing rain. In the middle of Hyde Park. While some fat bloke is spilling his guts out near by.

Very Good! Although to be truly accurate I would amend it to...

Nothing reminds me more of West Ham than standing in the pissing rain. Opposite Upton Park Tube. Eating a tray of chips. While some fat bloke is spilling his guts outside the Queens pub.

Season long loan of Kaelen Casey to Swansea confirmed
Good move for a 20yo centre half to mature physically 
Believe Swansea have some injury problems so might be straight in away to Middlesbrough on Saturday 

Great move for the lad, toughen him up.

I find it interesting that the rat Carragher has stated that the fee wanted for Isak is too high and should be more realistic. I remember when we were selling Rice most of the Sky mob were trying to undermine the value we had put on him.
Almost seems as Newcastle are not welcome at the big 6 table.

[twoleftfeet]

Dibling to Everton.

We have Callum Wilson though.

Have a day off Barty son.
Might as  well invent a link to Pele, it’s about as likely.

[Barty888]

I made it up

But he would be a fantastic signing, clearly the most exciting player we have been linked with

Payet like

[Iron Duke]

To be fair, he didn’t say West Ham.

[El Scorchio]

Sudakov in contract talks, fee agreed

Source?

It's clearly made up.
Looks like he's going to Napoli with just a 10second google.

That was indeed my thinking too!
