Stickied Transfer Rumours & Confirmed Deals Thread 2024/25

[thewwfc]

Jordan Obita comes in as left-back cover after a lengthy (ahem) 3-month stay at Oxford.

OUFC don’t seem that upset, but I don’t think he’s intended to be our first choice anyway. Sounds OK though.

All very quiet for us seemingly. Seems like we are very much trying to get rid of Galloway but other than that doesn't seem like any incomings.

Bit surprising as I think most would say we could do with a left back and certainly a forward player but i suspect the money isn't there for us given the situation.

He failed a medical at Shrewsbury, which I think says it all about that particular signing. He had chronic tendinitis when he came 18 months ago - it is what plagued Rafael Nadal for many years. I hate to say it, but the guys football career is going to be over.

Luton panic buy striker signing in 3...2....1...

Jervis is probably available. Nombe a total waste of time. What's Colin Samuel doing these days?

 

[SF_]

Liverpool are signing Ben Davies for £2m to fill in for their injury crisis.

What a move for him. We'll get a sell on and looks like their young Dutch defender Van Der Berg on loan too.

Celtic must be pissed off.

 

[Atavistic]

Nyland confirmed on a short-term deal until the end of the season. Offers some solid back-up in the goalkeeper position and reduces the pressure on the young Barden to provide that back-up.

 

[SF_]

Seems we're looking to bring in Liam Lindsay on a permanent from Stoke once the Davies deal goes through.

Wouldn't be unhappy with that one.

Bees sign Winston Reid from West Ham on loan. Much needed centre back cover

Think you guys have done a pretty good job replacing the out of contract guys tbf.

Shame Pontus is injured pretty much till the play offs, but good to get an experienced body in. Had a lot of injuries the past few years Reid but in the past had been talked about moves to the Top 6. Of we can get 10 half decent games out of him it’ll be a good move

Looks like it might just be a loan for Lindsay, makes sense, gives us a chance to look at him properly as he's played very little football in the past year.

If Winston Reid stays fit then he should be a boss in this league.

 

[SF_]

Josh Emmanuel, Hull right back has been mentioned as a target.

Still want Anthony Gordon but that depends on Everton's business I would imagine.

Don't think we want Kipre now, going for a left footer in Lindsay instead.

We can get Van Der Berg back next season if he plays enough games, 20% sell on in the Ben Davies deal too.

Potentially making the Cunningham deal permanent until the end of the season to free up a loan spot.

Earl on loan to Burton is done but not announced, think we're trying to sort something out for Tom Bayliss too.

 

[That Fat Centre Half]

Not much news for us today bar rumours of Lee going out on pain and us being linked with Kyle Edwards of West Brom. Left winger apparently so could see it, we need to get more end product from those positions imo. Not sure a loan is what we are looking for though.

Hopefully get a few more like Galloway, Tunnicliffe out alongside Lee to make room for a forward player but not sure this is the window for that as it’s mostly loans which we aren’t keen on.

 

[Kenneth E End]

Luton attempting to take Tom Ince on loan. That’s very interesting!

 

[SF_]

Ben Davies to Liverpool confirmed.
Liam Lindsay on loan to us from Stoke confirmed.

 

[Kenneth E End]

Surprised that Troy Parrott has joined Ipswich leaving Millwall?

Thought that but he barely did anything on loan at Millwall despite the relative fanfare that his signing got back in the summer.

 

[SF_]

Anthony Gordon at our training ground ahead of a loan, Everton fans speak highly of him.

Only joining because Bernard's move fell through.

 

[SF_]

Sepp Van Den Berg signs on loan.

No idea what the plan is, if Gordon signs, that's 7 loans with only 5 places in the matchday squad.

 

[Atavistic]

Regan Riley from Bolton confirmed, an initial three year deal for the 18 year old with an option of a further year. Presumably one for the Under-23s for now, but seems to be fairly hyped up as a good prospect.

Some rumours that a few Championship clubs are looking at taking Drmic off our hands on loan before the window closes; Birmingham are known to have enquired previously but opted to look at other targets instead.

 

[That Fat Centre Half]

We have indeed signed Tom Ince.

Much bigger name than I expected of us, and to be honest im not sure about it. Probably pretty expensive even as a loan, would like to think we think a bit more long term than an expensive loan player for the last few months of the season.

But hes got undoubted quality which is what we need in the final third.

Gutted he has gone, Bolton lad hope he comes back in 5 years or so when we are back in the championship
Not good enough for our first team so certainly no where near your first team but the few times i have seen him he impressed

 

[That Fat Centre Half]

Now being linked with Adebayo, striker from Walsall. Had seen he was maybe available and was linked with Huddersfield a few days ago for 250k and thought "hmm wonder if we would go in at that price". Know absolutely nothing about him though.

Reading trying to sign Diego Rossi on a loan to buy deal worth €10m.

No wonder the salary cap motion was defeated with flagrant cheating like that.

I know he has certainly never played for Arsenal !

Nugent sent to Tranmere on loan, he's probably sick of doing Zoom quizzes.

Anthony Gordon on loan, confirmed.

Confirmed after I fell asleep...

Nothing on Kyle Edwards, perhaps it'll happen this morning.

We now have 33 professionals + 7 out on loan (albeit I believe Eunan O'Kane has retired). Only Elliot Lee was moved on yesterday. How are we expecting to play all of these?

I expect if we stay up, there will be a smallish cull in the summer - perhaps around 10 departures. It was the wrong decision to give Hylton and Lee new deals.

 

[That Fat Centre Half]

Interested to see how Adebayo does, it’s a big jump from league 2 to this level so not expecting him to come in and have a big impact straight away.

My thinking was Edwards was the first choice which fell through so Ince came in instead perhaps?

 

[SF_]

In: Whiteman, Evans (loan), Molumby (loan), Iversen (loan), Cunningham (loan), Lindsay (loan), Van Den Berg (loan), Gordon (loan)
Extended: Browne & Johnson
Out: Davies, Pearson, Fisher, Stockley (loan), Nugent (loan), Harrop (loan), Earl (loan), Walker (loan)

Supposedly we can turn Cunningham's loan into a permanent short term deal even though the deadline has passed, can't fit all these loans into a matchday squad.

Mainly stop gaps, although think we'll be hoping to get a few of the loans back for the full year next season.
Massive summer for the club.
