NUFC Transfer Rumours

[Groundhog63]

I know "it's not the same" but there's a certain irony of us frothing at the mouth over having to sell Bruno, Isak or Botman to progress then salivating over the prospect of nabbing relegated/promotion team's best players. Especially newly promoted. 

Definitely a food chain  ?????

If the market forces a player sale that’s just football. If contrived premier league elitist rules force the sale that’s a disgrace!

The Gray kid is shockingly good for his age. Unreal prospect IMO.

 

Agree with you on the irony of things. Terribly sad if Leeds have to sell Gray already considering the history of his family with the club, and the fact he's only just started emerging there.

I'm with you to an extent, but both Leeds & Gray have the option of turning down any potential transfer. If both agree to the deal then what's the issue? If Leeds don't get promoted this season he'd be daft to turn down any club at the top end of the PL.

Been to a handful of Peterborough matches recently, the lad's alright, not sure he'd work as well in the Prem, but you never know.

Georginio Rutter has been been Leeds' best player whenever I've seen them this season.

If they don't go up, they'll probably have to sell somebody.

I'd argue he'd be daft to leave Leeds tbh.

 

He's only just turned 18 this year and is a mainstay in the Leeds first team already, gaining huge experience at a high level.

 

Shouldn't be in a rush to leave his hometown club as they look like being promoted and he'll be featuring in the first team for them in the Prem. 

 

If he moves now it will likely be to the bench of a top club where he likely will be playing far less.

For those wanting the option of playing a more traditional DM, we've been linked with Ndidi on a free this summer.

You to forgot to say it was Graeme Bailey who linked us so it’s utterly irrelevant

It mentions us in the article 

 

He's been linked with us a lot recently too, for what it's worth.

I didn't forget anything.

 

The original article I read was from Harry Watkinson at Teamtalk, who had it as an exclusive, so it wasn't from Graeme Bailey.

Meet them in the middle at 35.

Man, Chiesa is up there with my most-wanted signings.

Isn't he pretty average these days?

He doesn't look PL ready though, especially not for a team like us. He gives the ball away a lot and his decision making needs significant improvement. Maybe for a Bournemouth, Everton type team.

If he comes here, he won't be going near the first team for probably a whole season. If we could buy him and loan him back to Leeds for a season, that could be attractive all round?

I'm not sure how he wouldn't be near the first team when we've got the likes of Anderson and Miley playing for us. Gray has played at a higher level than both of them before they played for us

He plays on the left though, we’ve already got two right footed left forwards. I’d love him mind

Thought Chiesa was a RF? Haven’t seen him in ages mind.

Think he plays there for the national team but every time I’ve seen him at Juve he’s left side

He had a number of injuries their last few years in the Prem and his play suffered with the lack of consistency.

 

I haven't seen much of Leicester this year, but it looks like he has been available more this season and has played well.

 

As an experienced option that can come into the team as a more traditional defensive midfielder, could be a solid move on a free.

Chiesa from what I've seen is a terror on both sides.
