Lille's Jonathan David (25) is in advanced talks to join Napoli on a free transfer.(@FabrizioRomano)

Liam Delap is leaning towards joining Manchester United over Chelsea.(@alex_crook & @BenJacobs)

Victor Osimhen is giving priority to a move to Juventus and he wants to work with Cristiano Guintoli again.(@AlfredoPedulla)

Arsenal are close to reaching an agreement with Sporting to sign Viktor Gyökeres for €80m. (@Oliveira32Pablo)

Ruben Amorim and Manchester United executives are ALIGNED on trying to bring Cunha to Old Trafford.(@lauriewhitwell)

Liverpool are particularly keen on Hugo Ekitike from Eintracht Frankfurt. (@BILD)

Ekitike at Liverpool and Gyökeres at Arsenal would both be great fit imo.. Arsenal may buy Zubimendi fir more midfield depth, but lack of quality/availability upfront costed their season. Ekitike will have good time there aswell. I like him very much since PSG, but would not fit here.

A lot of talk last month about us getting players signed early for the Club World Cup. We haven’t done anything. We are the old Brighton. Buying kids and flipping them for profit. Depressing. 

[Special Juan 28,765]

Those two clowns and owners aren't in any rush what so ever....All the top targets will be gone in the coming weeks with all the pro active clubs getting stuff signed and sealed while we sit and wait for the cheap players to come along and barter over 1-2 million and eventually lose out

Also sounds like Huijsen is off to either Arsenal or Liverpool as both in pole position for him

Hearing Madrid are back in for Huijsen and will sign him in 2 weeks, Spanish media is reporting

Delap , Sesko , Ekitike better than Jackson ? No

Osimhen ? Yes . We are not interesting in top players anymore .

Nobody went for Osimhen even when his price kept dropping and nobody is linked with him now when everyone's going for strikers. His wages are not worth it.

Feeder club!

[Special Juan 28,765]

All the deals for the big boys will be getting done and sorted behind the scenes the likes of Arsenal, Liverpool, City etc all being quick off the mark.

We will still being going through the identifying stage and weighing up costs and structures, the rest are striking like a python.

I can honestly see us not getting a 9 this summer and them continuing with Jackson and Guiu

[MoroccanBlue 5,400]

Who was it that reported Feb 1 that even though we didn’t sign anyone in January where we desperately needed another CM & ST, the directors “did the ground work” for summer deals before the Club World Cup?

🏁🔥The striker market gets rolling!!!

Delap to Manchester United
Gyökeres to Arsenal
Osimhen to Juventus
Sesko to Chelsea
Ekitike to Liverpool
Isak stays with Newcastle
J.David to Napoli
Cunha to Manchester United
Martinez stays with Inter

🤕🤕🤕

Not the worst outcome but I'd love Isak. 25 and ready to kick on.

Matt Law has chimed in now. He's gone

[Strike 7,792]

Completely changes our CB plans. Huijsen was the one CB with a reasonable fee I would have loved signing. Ornstein named these 5 players last month and I am not sure I'd love any of them honestly

Said before and will say again, when Madrid come knocking you may as well just give up....he's going there end of.

Go for Murillo and Guehi

Romano saying Huijsen dreams of the move and he is now in full talks with Madrid

[Strike 7,792]

City trying to sign Wirtz 

[Special Juan 28,765]

The things we used to do many years ago going for a player of that calibre

[MoroccanBlue 5,400]

Roman would’ve had us going after Konate. 

[Pizy 19,280]

Seems both of our “top” targets will be going elsewhere. Huijsen to Madrid and Delap to United.

Thankfully, the quality of the targets were linked with these days are so unexciting that I’m not even bothered.

[Fernando 6,725]

Murillo over Hudjsen any day of the week for me. 

Let's go all nuts for Murillo and spend the big bucks.
