Whitley mag Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Mac Callister carries a hefty price tag and is undoubtedly a name after the world cup. However, he’s at a selling club, the right age, has PL experience and appears to be a great guy around the club. He ticks a lot of boxes in what we look for in players but agree the price is probably prohibitive even with CL football. We’ll undoubtedly end up paying 40 to 50 million though if we want somebody like Thuram, Kone or Lavia this summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Rumours from Turkey that a £17 million deal for Fenerbache's Ferdi Kadioglu is on the cards. Been reading up on him and checking out some clips and he looks like he would be a great addition. Attack minded and technically gifted full back. Plays right back mostly, but can cover at left back and on either wing. Born in the Netherlands but represents Turkey. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea but A LOT I reckon ? Jokes aside how much is 4-5 potential starters going to cost? I suppose that'll give a ball park figure. What’s that 200m odd maybe?

tarie4 Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 our midfield players are all strong, athletic, high energy and can press, with only Bruno being creative. what we need in there is a cm who is like Bruno (here I would recommend the lazio cm we been linked too) and Gallagher. So we will have Bruno (lazio cm) longstaff (Gallagher) Joe (willock) and Anderson. that's 7. in defence I would want a young rcb and a left back. maybe sell one of krafth and manquillo. keep the rest atleast for one more season. upfront get Maddison (no brainer really) and a young player who can play across the front 3. That's 6 players Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess a similar budget to the last 2 seasons so between £100m and £150m net. The reassuring thing is if they do feel they can spend without breaching FFP then they will, while trying to maintain some sort of balance for future years.

Probably keeping tabs on both as they both look very good players, and both fit our profile of players. Both together can be had for less than £25 million too, which is extraordinary really. Hope the rumours for both are true. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Kompany has been at our last two matches... scouting someone? Trying to see someone like Targett? Anderson loan? (we might need him for home grown quota),Lascelles and Murphy were injured so surely can't be them? It was reported he was just generally watching games but seems suss to me...

The rumour popped up around March for the first time, when it was mentioned our scouts and Brighton scouts were at a match watching him and were very impressed. And the name has popped up again more recently with a fee mentioned. Profile wise he seems to make sense and he also has Champions League experience, and so thought it was worth putting on here and discussing. Lets see what happens.
