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

As soon as I saw the news about Timber, I logged off. 

[fraser]

Cornet - I forgot we even had that bloke.

Nowhere near Premier League quality. Another absolute ringer of a signing. 

9 goals in 26 appearances for an abysmal Burnley in the Premier league would suggest otherwise... The injury ruined him. 
​​​​​​

 

Great, then let him go back to Burnley for a fee. Would prefer to go on what we've seen of him here - and he has been a poor signing for us. Never seemed to understand the offside rule, for starters.

Exactly but he got a bad injury after joining us, so he was good enough when we signed him, had a couple of decent games and had that goal ruled out ridiculously against Chelsea. 

[Mad Ferret]

Cornet ultimately, was just too flaky.

[southbankbornnbred]

Alot of activity. Who is going to be gone before the end of the window?

Cornet, Guido, Irving, Emerson?

Understand he was ok there last season
Whenever you are ready Patrick

Ffs, I've Logged in to see transfer news and everyone is doing Timber puns.. 

Tiresome, isn't it?

 

 

Bit like people going on and on with obvious bullshit about Kappa making our new kits. 

[boleyn8420]

Dunno about this Timber fellow I fell we may be barking up the wrong tree on this one

[Mad Ferret]

[Mike Oxsaw]

Will be like turning over a new leaf.

[Mad Dog]

Id rather not take that deal but..... leaf it

[Massive Attack]

For what it's worth I once saw Timber fall to pieces at the Shed End. 

[Hammer I am]

hope we don't overpay for him, not as if's been pulling up trees

[Massive Attack]

Big photo-op of his signing currently underway apparently at The Carpenter's Arms.

[Fauxstralian]

Surely he will join Forest alongside Wood?

[SUM A DING WONG]

"Timber is often injured, it's a big NO from me."

That's because he's always being chopped down by the opposition.

Report: Juventus turn to affordable West Ham midfielder

Juventus have reportedly identified experienced West Ham United man Guido Rodriguez as a potential solution for their midfield dilemma.

The Bianconeri have already offloaded Douglas Luiz who joined Nottingham Forest, but they have yet to bring in reinforcement.

In recent months, the Serie A giants have been linked with various profiles, including Yves Bissouma, Morten Hjulmand, and Matt O’Riley, but they haven’t been able to make a breakthrough on any of these tracks. Hence, Damien Comolli and Francois Modest continue to explore potential solutions.
Juventus set sights on West Ham’s Guido Rodriguez

According to Tuttosport via IlBianconero, Rodriguez has become the latest name to land on Juve’s shortlist.

The 31-year-old is a River Plate youth product who went on to make a name for himself in Mexico with Club Tijuana and America.

In January 2020, the Argentinian finally arrived in Europe, signing for Real Betis. After four and a half successful years in Andalosia, he was close to joining Barcelona last summer, but the deal eventually fell through, and he ended up at West Ham.

The midfielder’s settling in East London wasn’t entirely smooth, so he only ended up making 24 appearances for the Hammers across all competitions.

Therefore, the Turin-based newspaper believes that West Ham would be willing to offload him for €10 million.
What to expect from Guido Rodriguez

Rodriguez’s style of play might not be appealing to the eye, but he has often been appreciated by managers his physicality, tactical discipline and never-say-die attitude. In Spain, he earned the nickname ‘little Gattuso’, which perfectly depicts his willingness to sacrifice himself for the cause.

The Sáenz Peña native is also a favourite of Argentina’s head coach, Lionel Scaloni. He was part of the squad that won back-to-back Copa America trophies in 2021 and 2024, and more importantly, the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.

I also like Sangare, but Timber is supposed to be very good 

Timber is often injured, it's a big NO from me.

 

 

Timber is totally different profile...more an 8/ball carrier than a tough tackling type.

Concern for me is Magassa is 21 and likely to not hit the ground running.  Sangare no such concerns there.
