Stickied Transfer Rumours & Confirmed Deals Thread 2024/25

[BarrieOwl]

Yeah seen that after I posted. Sounds like a bullet dodged.

I’m pretty happy with Hendrick and Buckley. Disappointed we didn’t get a striker in though. Especially seeing Clarke-Harris go for 800k. We’re gonna struggle for goals til Jan at least.

JCH didn't move

 

[Tea Towel]

JCH didn't move

No but they accepted the bid, just didn’t get done in time

I wouldn't pay 800k for him

Archer goes for £18.5m and Tom Cannon for £7.5m this summer.

I'd like to think we'll only consider loans with a view to a permanent in the future, like Liam Millar, instead of just helping other clubs make obscene amounts of money.

We're obviously good at identifying a young striker, so i'm hoping Layton Stewart follows a similar trajectory to Archer and Cannon as he's arrived at a similar stage in his career.

Club's like PNE can't take a short-term approach at this level with the money other clubs have, one bad window, and you could be looking at relegation.

Ridsdale confirmed we were in for a player from the MLS that we will likely revisit in January or in the summer (more likely). Dejan Joveljic from LA Galaxy is who most people think it was, Serbian international, attacking mid, ex Red Star, Frankfurt, and Anderlecht).

Liverpool also poached a young centre back from us for their U16s, Luca Furnell-Gill, we got a 'six figure fee'....

He also said we were willing to stump up £6m for Cannon but I find that hard to believe.

 

[geg1992]

We’ve signed Axel Tuanzebe on a 1 year deal with an option for a further year. Quite a high risk signing given his injured past but potentially a great signing if he can stay fit.

 

[SF_]

Cannon is on £40k a week at Leicester.
This fucking league, man.

I was about to say Tuanzebe is a great signing but then I looked at how few games he's actually played.

 

[SF_]

In talks with Alan Browne & Ben Whiteman about extending their deals. Big if we manage it.

Brad Potts signed a two year extension the other day as well which is great news.

And got a broken back it seems .

 

[SF_]

We're trying to sign Nathaniel Adjei from Hammarby, 21yr old Ghanaian centre back. Although we're supposedly being quoted £3m and the Old Firm clubs are interested.

 

[SF_]

Supposedly Alan Browne's contract extension is agreed and just waiting to be announced.

Delighted. He's been one of the best players in the league this season.

Should become our highest ever appearance maker, breaking Alan Kelly Snr's record.

Not bad for a £30k signing from Cork City.

Hopefully there is some progress with Ben Whiteman's contract too.

 

[SF_]

Linked to Quansah on loan from Liverpool. We badly need more quality and pace in the centre of defence.

I'm also massively leaning towards us getting what we can for Whiteman in Jan. He's very replaceable, someone with a bit of mobility would be nice, because Whiteman looks like he has concrete boots at times. I'd certainly start Ali McCann over him when he's back fit. I'd also loan Ryan Ledson to Bamber Bridge or something.

 

[SF_]

Fulham keeping tabs on Kian Best.

I'd like to think we'll tell them to fuck off as 18 months from now he could be worth a fortune.

Quansah was pretty poor for us last season, but has not looked out of place when playing for Liverpool's first team. Clearly just a case of us bringing him down to our level!

Sometimes hard to judge young players in their first loan spells, some need 20-30 games to get used to the physicality and pace, then kick on from there.

He was a weird one as he seemed to get worse during his loan spell, then suddenly he ends up coming on as sub for Liverpool which most of us couldnt believe. Clearly has talent though, maybe more suited to higher level football

 

[SF_]

Patrick Bauer and Layton Stewart expected to be loaned out in January.

Bauer will leave at the end of the season and barely makes the bench under Lowe, Charlton were keen on bringing him back on loan in the summer, but there was dispute over his loyalty bonuses.

Stewart will have 4 senior strikers in front of him when Riis is back so makes sense, he needs games. He was always going to be a bit of a project rather than an option for here and now.

I'd love to see Ben Woodburn shipped out but who'd have him? stuck with him till the end of the season i'd guess. Same as Robbie Brady, that twat has 18 months left to run on his contract. Fucking criminal contract extension.

 

[SF_]

Dan Gore (loan from Man Utd) and Joe Gelhardt (Leeds) are the current rumours for us.

 

[SF_]

Calvin Ramsay recalled/ sent back to Liverpool after two measly appearances. Lowe has confirmed we won't be bringing in another RB to replace him which is fucking madness. Although hopefully it gives Josh Seary a chance.

Supposedly very interested in Isaac Hayden on loan from Newcastle. Maybe suggests Ben Whiteman is leaving this window. Hopefully it just means Ledson never gets a start though.

Million Manhoef from Vitesse is also a random rumour. Seems too good to be true that one. Dutch U21 winger.

 

[MatthewArgyle]

We have signed Alfie Devine from Tottenham on loan till end of the season and also set to sign Matthew Sorinola who is a free agent.

Interesting to see how Alfie does in the Championship, didn't really get going as an advanced midfielder but thrived when Arblaster was recalled in the deeper role.

 

[SF_]

Absolutely nothing doing at Deepdale. Such a mind numbing club.

• Alan Browne and Ben Whiteman are OoC at the end of the season. Zero news on them signing or leaving.
• Patrick Bauer is staying as he's due a loyalty bonus before leaving at the end of the season.
• Layton Stewart isn't going out on loan because he wants to prove himself here, supposedly.
• Ben Woodburn won't leave as he'll be losing money by doing so, also OoC. Thank God.
• Josh Seary will be denied a valuable loan move because we won't be signing a backup RB.
• Lewis Leigh is another who is OoC, on loan at Crewe, whether he impresses there or not will decide whether he gets offered an extension it seems.

We're touching cloth in terms of FFP and need to move someone out to bring anyone in, yet there's seemingly no one who can be moved out. Seems obvious that Isaac Hayden on loan is the backup option if there is a late move for Ben Whiteman.

I'd expect a quiet summer too, considering we keep offering out extensions to waste of time players.

 

[SF_]

Ben Whiteman has signed a long-term deal, no exact length given, so maybe three years with an option?

Whispers that a deal for Alan Browne is close, hope so, our best player this year.

 

[That Fat Centre Half]

Hull have signed Ryan Giles from us. Initial loan but with an option to buy included also.

He is our record signing and not even lasted a season with us. I’m normally one for giving players chances but from the first time I saw him you could just tell he wasn’t a “Luton” type player, just seemed a bit “nice” for us with no edge to his game which is sort of what we thrive off.

Thought we might keep him as he is clearly a talented player and with Doughty probably going if we go down, he’d have been a nice option to go into the championship with.

 

[SF_]

Alan Browne is wanted by Salernitana. Out of the two, I'd have kept him over Whiteman all day long. Unforgivable if this twat of a manager has played a part in our captain, with 400 appearances under his belt being forced out of the club.

 

[MatthewArgyle]

Matt Butcher is set to sign for Wycombe Wanderers on a permanent and the other rumour so far is Femi Azeez from Reading.

 

[SF_]

Transfers windows don't get any duller than that.

Not one player signed, loaned out a youngster to Crewe and sold another to Burnley U21s for a nominal fee.

Looks like we are relying on keeping the current squad fit and hoping Dennis comes good .

 

[SF_]

Very annoying that we don't have an option on Liam Millar. He's so good. Can see a few multimillion pound bids being fired over to Basel by clubs in this league.

 

[SF_]

I'm resigned to losing Alan Browne on a free. A great pickup for any play-off chasing side.

We'll no doubt try but fail to sign Liam Millar permanently.

Bauer, Woodburn, Evans, Cunningham will be out of contract - wouldn't be surprised if the latter two are offered player/ coach roles. Cunningham still has something to offer as a backup player, Ched doesn't.

Been linked to Marc Leonard (Brighton) and Charles Pickel (Cremonese) so far.
