Record in Portugal saying we have approached Sporting for Gyokares

We have been linked to all 4 - Delap, Ekitike, Sesko and Gyokeres. I think we are pursuing them simultaneously. Hopefully end up with one great striker.

There's no way we're bringing that Brazilian wonderkid, that young Portuguese winger from Sporting and then keeping both Madueke and Sancho (assuming we make the loan permanent for 25 million). 

If there's a decent bid on Madueke that gets us a solid profit, I see the club selling.

if we keep sancho or brought another winger, neto or madueke need to be sold and I believe that madueke would be the choice to get out of our club

Neto overall had a better season than noni and arrived only one year ago

Maybe next summer but I’d be shocked if Madueke goes this window. Knowing our board they’ll set a valuation so silly that nobody will be interested like we did with putting a £70m asking price on Nkunku.

Estevao needs to be treated like Nwaneri at Arsenal or Yamal at Barca last season. No expectations, just getting rotation time and get him used to the league. If he handles the physicality of the league he could be a player who helps unlock low block defenses. 

Quenda, the Sporting kid and Paez, are going out on loan and not going to be around the first team I think 

no way quenda will be loan. Quenda will be in the first team

btw, I said this yesterday or a few days ago, but its a huge relief that board want to make the deals asap and want to complete or at least almost complete or squad in jure. We dont need to way too many weeks to see what board will do with our squad

so... if you think that we will keep madueke, we will not buy sancho and we only will get estevao

estavao, neto, noni and palmer will be our setup

He is going to be at Sporting for 2025-26. Joining Chelsea only next year.

New transfer weapon:

The first complete set ever

Plus the UEFA Cup Winners Cup

Need now the new World Cup of clubs, which looks very nice.

I was skeptical last summer but he's had a strong season and is a good creative mid who'd stop us from being Palmer FC.

Substack by the Swiss Ramble about Aston Villa's finances. Likely they'll have to sell couple of players this summer. Should be approaching them about Rogers.

Would be a good approach but I will then like to see us sell some players as well so we won't be bloated. 

Drewsbury Hall should go if we get that guy, as well Maduke, Sancho....I'm so so with him. Sancho can be good at time and blow cold at times. I'm really torn with him because I still think for the price United is selling it's a really no brainer to me.

 Think we can find loads of better players in the market who can have the impact he did.  Even with the small fee, I'd pass on signing Sancho. So far there's been no communication to him about continuing at Chelsea and I hope it stays this way 

[Special Juan 28,759]

We need to be thinking levels above Sancho, and people like Rogers fit that mould we should be looking at.

Sancho a good impact bench player no more, but I would rather invest the 25M United want for him into a much better player

Like who? 

For 25 million who you get?

And English as well. 

[Special Juan 28,759]

David Ornstein...

 

Liam Delap suitors are being informed he is not joining them, amid preference to join Chelsea. United, Newcastle, Everton etc are now informed on this, the 22 year old is on course to join CFC subject to terms and release clause being met

 

 

[Special Juan 28,759]

Romano has now also confirmed the deal for Delap is underway

[Pizy 19,276]

Good signing and a bit of a no brainer at just £30m. But can’t help but feel underwhelmed if he’s our one and only forward signing considering the other names available.

[whats happening 1,663]

great. rather see him in our team than spending 100m for fucking etikite

25 m and high wages for a player who had 3G 5A in 31 league appearances. And someone who didn't look like he could cope with a competent defense in front of him. 

There's loads of wingers I'd take over this deal. Leroy Sane contract expiring. Ademola Lookman, Johan Bakayoko are cheaper options. There's also Rodrygo, Morgan Rogers, Bryan Mbeumo if we pay more.

No chance this happens imo. No rumors of Jackson leaving so the timing is going to catch us out - Don't see Gyokeres, Sesko looking at Delap joining and feel like they want to come here and compete.

 

[Mhsc 1,146]

In the short term I am happy if we are signing Delap and he joins immediately and travels for CWC

For £30m it is a no brainer, if he's shit we sell him for the same or similar to any PL club or even a championship outfit 

And suddenly we have at minimum a genuine striker off the bench and someone that we can ping balls at and scrap for us. That might be a low standard but that's how low the standard of our bench has been recently. And its just the minimum - there's some reason to have higher hopes for him.

I am unhappy if we finish the transfer window with NJ and Delap as our options for PL 2025/26 unless we are signing some complete madman goal scorer for another position - we need to add a decent chunk of goals to the team since Cole fell off on that front, simple as that.

I guess I mean attacking player in general. Doesn’t have to be another traditional striker. Still definitely think we need additional attacker after Delap who can score and create goals at a decent clip to replace Nkunku/Sancho.

I”d be delighted with Morgan Rogers.
