Stickied Transfer Rumours & Confirmed Deals Thread 2024/25

[markwwfc1992]

Is he not a winger/attacking mid that's been playing as a full back this season?

Yeah I think so, I think we'd only sign him as full back as we have a ton of wingers already at the club. Always looked a solid player for this division, and think we could get him on the cheap with his contract expiring in the summer.

Ben Marshall looked like he had never played right back in his life at Deepdale, Callum Robinson had a field day.

Can't see the Jordan Rhodes rumour being true to be honest, we've just signed Sam Winnall and we have another 5 strikers to choose from so we hardly need him. He's going to cost an absolute fortune, not only in fee but in wages and he's barely kicked a ball for the last 12 months, for me Winnall was far better value for money especially considering he's about 9M cheaper and match fit. I don't really see us needing a great deal more to add to the squad maybe a centre back but that can always be addressed in the summer, I'm just hoping we can move some more out to follow Bus, Melo and Kean.

 

[SF_]

I'll be very surprised if Keane goes to Preston, he's after Premier League wages.

Supposedly wants £25k a week.... well it was a nice thought.

Time to move on.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

Interesting rumour that Barnsley have accepted a lower bid from Hourihane from Villa than we tabled, pretty sad if true.

 

[Craig]

Great news if true.

 

[TomPNE94]

Lansbury confirmed. Presume he won't be fit to start tomorrow as he hasn't played for about 2 months.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

That would be pathetic from Barnsley.

 

[JJH]

Why would it? The club have seen the meltdown with Winnall, why would they upset the supporters again?

Anyway, Hourihane probably fancied Villa over Wednesday purely for financial reasons so that might be a factor.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

Because footballs a business and their fans would soon get over it. And also I really wanted Hourihane

In all fairness though we have Abdi and he is one of the best midfielders in the league, time for Carlos to get him used.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

Great news if true.

Depends if your club can afford half a million

 

[Nook Terrier]

Collin Quaner signed for undisclosed fee from Union Berlin. Been scoring for them in Bundesliga 2. So here hopes he fires them in here!

He's the big, strong, pacey striker we've been screaming for apparently.

 

[El Guapo]

All aboard the Zola Gondola! Kerim Frei from Besiktas... £2.2m

Gone are the days of BIHL, Gary Rowett, 30% possession, feeding off scraps, and being forced to accept mediocrity. TTA and Zola are finally bringing the good times back to St. Andrews!

 

[SMH]

Marcus Browne from West Ham allegedly the next mystery loan signing we announce on the day of a game and put straight in the team. Highly rated apparently. Edit: Deal now done. Also signed Ryan Tunnicliffe, was awful last time he was here one of Joyce's old boys.

 

[JaseTheVillain]

Lansbury done, Hourihane close to being done, Rhodes fell through.

 

[Craig]

Raiding St. Mirren for their highly rated 20 year old midfielder Stevie Mallan.

 

[Haillay7]

Seems to be strength to the Townsend links now.

 

[Another Walkley Owl]

Great news if true.

Thought it would have been great news for you if he had signed for Napoli, Kansas, Leicester or one of the other multitude of clubs you support

 

[JaseTheVillain]

Also trying to steal Bree from Barnsley reportedly. These transfers could be like buses for us...

 

[Bluebird_Dai]

We're after Josh Scowen from Barnsley as well supposedly. Will Barnsley actually have any players left come February?

Bree is class and has a bright future in the game. If rumours are to be believed you'll have competition from a host of premier league clubs for his signature though. He turned down a move to Man Utd a couple of years ago in favour of developing with us. I reckon Villa will be back in the big time sooner rather than later so might be a smart move for him as he's more chance of establishing himself in the first team while they're a Championship club. He'll cost around £4million plus add-ons so at least we'll get a fair deal on him.

Be a step sideways that, possibly even backwards.

 

[Bluebird_Dai]

For us or the player? I can't remember how he did when we played you earlier in the season.

For Scowen. He's been as important as Hourihane so far this season. Reyt little workhorse. No offence intended but Cardiff don't seem a great destination at the moment. Money talks though and at least we can command something resembling a fee for him.

Take it he does all the dirty work in the middle of the park then? I'd agree at the moment it would be a sideways step, but I'd imagine with even how tight we've been with money we'd be able to offer him better wages. Nothing will happen though as every fucker we've been linked with hasn't signed!

 

[mossypne]

Keane expected to sign next week

 

[SirTomFinney]

Heavily linked with Robbie Keane and confident of getting 3 points away at Villa.

This time 3 years ago we were getting beat off teams like Crawley and had Chris Holdroyd upfront.

SG needs a knighthood

 

[JJH]

Diagouraga to Ipswich. SERNWA you're an idiot as proven yet again.

Doesn't surprise me that move - McCarthy's got a bit of a track record getting a lot of use out of ageing players. Think he'll fit in well with them.

 

[MagpieBee]

Hogan not even on the bench for us today - hoping we're getting a good deal finished up but there's been little noise about anything being close to a deal at the moment
