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

Igor of Brighton mentioned earlier as a centre half possibility 
Seems Palace are moving for him. If done they will let Guehi go to Liverpool 

[Eerie Decent]

If we get a centre half,and a pack forward who can play up top or on the flanks, I think that would make it a very good window. I hope the defender is Cresswell, as I think his heading in both boxes is something we badly need, proper attacks the ball a bit like Dawson.

With Guilherme to come back, that will give us enough cover up top if we get one more in. Fingers crossed. 

[GBHammer63]

Aguerd out and a new CB in = a good window, for me.

Only lacking a younger CF.

Hopefully Magassa lives up to the expectations but he’s not had many minutes, sounds like there is some bite and energy there, Nicks agent mate at C&B has been trying to offer Kaio Jorge, young quick striker apparently just called into the Brazil squad, different to what we’ve got, not big money and it would be good to show some ambition for the future.

[LeroysBoots]

Standard reporting loan deal for Disaster at Chelsea

[dealcanvey]

We need another winger. Summerville and Bowen not enough unless Potter happy with 4 cms starting game in game out.

See Villa are trying now for Elliot.

[Mad Ferret]

Aguerd out and a new CB in = a good window, for me.

Only lacking a younger CF.

[Russ of the BML]

When all said and done. I think we have had a good window when you look at the outs and ins. 

Diouf looks a sensation and him and Summerville can be potentially as a good as any top PL teams left side. Fernandes looks like the energy and ability we needed in midfield and he and Paqueta can be very exciting. Magassa you hope will be as good as he is said to be. Callum Wilson looked good yesterday and fingers crossed he stays fit. KWP looked decent yesterday. I also think despite a shaky start the keeper will be good for us. 

But for me and many others its the manner in which we get to the final squad. Again, like previous years, there seems to be very little planning and vision. As another poster said, Fernandes and Magassa should've been done in June. GK done earlier. You do wonder if we had one our first two would we have even signed Fernandes and Magassa? It will never be any different under Sullivan because he has no recruitment policy and has no vision. It's like owning a car and just fixing it when it breaks rather than having it serviced yearly. 

[Sir Alf]

Sullivan will be in full cash flow protection mode now having had to buy 2 last week.  I suspect Aguerd will go for £19 million with a decent immediate payment and Sully will look for a loan. Hence Cresswell wont happen unless Toulouse accept a loan to buy. Everything we have done has been on the “never never” a ponzi scheme that has been catching up. Sullivan has got the wage bill down by a £1 million a week I saw someone quote? Is that right
? Younger players we are bringing in perhaps not on very high wages.  But hopefully itmeans we bring in players that improve us unlike last season.  

 

[Rossal]

Igor looks like he is going Palace 

Quiet on the news front with us, EX reckons theres updates on his site if anyone is a member on there 

[dealcanvey]

Cresswell sounds like a promising player. HG and still only 23. 

Type of player we should be going for.

[Mad Ferret]

Igor is already a WHU legend.

[Rossal]

Yes that's him, hasnt had much of an impact at Brighton. 

I would rather Cresswell, or Disasi on loan from Chelsea will do.....or Akanji at Citeh 

[Fauxstralian]

Igor was the one that Bowen left behind when scoring the Conference winner wasn’t he?
Id prefer C Cresswell despite Toulouse conceding 6 v PSG at the weekend

[Rossal]

Thought Irving looked good yesterday when he came on. I think that with most of his cameo's to be honest. Thought he did well when he started at Chelsea last season aswell. 

On the ball he is better than JWP and Soucek. I think we would be a better side giving Irving and Potts more minutes than JWP and Soucek. 

[Rossal]

Fabrizio reporting we are looking at Igor from Brighton to replace Aguerd 

Underwhelming 

[Iron Duke]

I like Irving too. He hasn’t put a foot wrong for us. But he’ll only ever be a bit part player for us and at 25 needs first team football. We’ve got enough cover in the middle now and need to give some of our youngsters a chance.

[stubbo-admin]

Sounds like our hierarchy of options at CB is:

- Cresswell
- Harwood-Bellis
- Disasi (loan)

Very little news around strikers...with Boniface still being discussed subject to the terms offered.

[Takashi Miike]

will that midget fucker dare move on paqueta?

[Tomshardware]

I like Irving, hoping he stays.

[fraser]

Aguerd has gone almost done. Irvine to Wrexham is off apparently. 

[Iron Duke]

Hopefully we can get Charlie Cresswell in today and offload Aguerd, Rodriguez, Irving and Cornet. Emerson also off to Marseille for a pittance. I liked him but he’s the wrong side of 30 and on high wages and we’ve already replaced him.

I don’t know a lot about Cresswell but we don’t have much time. He’s got to be a better option than the flaky, sulky Aguerd.

[Tomshardware]

Liverpool sign Isak, £125 million.

[Alfs]

Being told Irving to Wrexham is OFF.

Whomail from Thunderclit? 

Hahahahahahaha

[Vexed]

Apparently En Nesyri been offered to us again....could it happen?

Fuck him, he had his chance and he's too old now anyway. Also he's Moroccan so deeply untrustworthy.
