Summer 2018 Transfer Thread

[TheHowieLama]

How - if there has been no contact why are informed people saying it is a cert?

[Anubis]

He's just Lyon about the whole situation.

[Anubis]

West Ham wanted the Wales midfielder in January and he has a £25million buy-out clause in his contract for any of the top-six sides, excluding former club Liverpool.

 

Yeah, I don't think that's going to be activated somehow.

[Chip Butty]

Bit of an Aulas if he doesn't let him sign for us. 

[sir roger]

 

Speaking on SFR Sport, Lyon President Jean-Michel Aulas was asked about Nabil Fékir’s future.

 

“There has been no contact with Liverpool or any other club so we haven’t discussed the future. I know that Nabil, now that we have qualified for the Champions’ League, would really like to stay, so we will discuss things calmly. He has magnificently won the right to go to Russia with France, which gives him an even higher standing. For the moment, nothing is done. You will have to be very, very rich to sign Nabil Fékir this year.”

 

Aulas can be a bit of a bullshitter though.

 

 

Never can a chairman have been named more aptly.

Hope the Independent are not very good at this transfer rumour lark as they are saying we are looking at 4 signings this summer , Butland , Tarkowski or Lascelles , Keita & a forward,

[Harry Squatter]

We already signed Keita and Pearce has Pearced the Butland link.

Miguel Delaney knows fuck all. Thankfully.

[aRdja]

This is the only video I’ve seen of this guy.

 

 

Can we sign him nonetheless?

[Gym Beglin]

Watch Lautaro Martinez. He’s fucking sublime. Apparently he’s signing for Inter, what a fucking waste.

 

Still only 20, not left Argentinian league yet, and people were fuming he wasn’t picked for their World Cup squad.

 

Some player.

[Numero Veinticinco]

This is the only video I’ve seen of this guy.

Can we sign him nonetheless?

 

Are we even linked?

[Harry Squatter]

We were linked in January last year. He had a low release clause of about 19m. Luan of Gremio was linked as well with us and has a £16m release clause.

REAL MADRID have sensationally offered Gareth Bale to Liverpool in a swap deal for Mohamed Salah, reports in Spain claim.

Reds superstar Salah has been tipped to head to the Bernabeu in recent months.

 

And according to Spanish news outlet Don Balon, Real will go all out for Salah this summer - and they’re willing to give up Bale to land the Egypt international.

 

They say Real have offered Bale to Liverpool in hope of luring Salah to La Liga.

 

Wales international Bale has struggled with injuries during his time at Real.

 

However, when fit, the winger has impressed under Zinedine Zidane.

 

Bale, 28, has won three Champions League medals, one La Liga title and lifted the Copa del Rey once following his move to Real from Tottenham in 2013.

Unsettling Tactics 101

[Saintslfc13]

Madrid can fuck off with that shit. I'm hoping we don't even entertain the idea of selling Salah but if he pulls the "dream club" shit (doesn't seem like the type but I've thought that about others as well) then tell them to break the bank open or get lost.

Heh.

 

Sure, I'd say that's likely. Our team of transfer aces are going to take an injury-prone player about to enter his decline in exchange for the best player under 27 in the world.

 

At least if they want to make it believable it should be a swap deal for Asensio, not Bale. Bale is the kind of player United like to sign - overrated, old, injury-prone, and has just about another year, maybe two, left in his legs.

[Anubis]

Lots of rumours that Madrid are supposed to be talking to Spurs about Bale returning there. Typical Don Balon bollocks.

[Lycan]

Don't even give that article the time of day. It's obvious what they're hoping to do.

[aRdja]

Are we even linked?

No, but fuck he is sublime.

Why are you not posting links with any of these? 

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

I think we should sell Salah to Real Madrid. That's definitely a good idea. We should maintain our position as lowly subservient also-rans whilst simultaneously allowing our glorious overlords to reach their prime again. Win/win.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Or we should try and bum them silly on Saturday and keep our best players and buy more dead good players.
