Bakayoko would offer us the trickery and can go both ways, obvious caveat being it’s the Dutch league and been a few flops from there.

Last 2 PSV wingers been canny - Gakpo and Madueke

 

It’ll boil down to the level of scouting in terms of how much we have watched him and what his underlying stats are -  YouTube compilations can be biased 

 

Kubo is probably your most guaranteed success and fits our profile the best - but I wouldn’t mind Bakayoko either - just want a RW

[STM]

Dibling is exactly the profile that we will look at. 

[buzza]

Would love Dibling, most exciting young player I have seen in a while.

We would need to buy in Jan, I reckon if he keeps playing like he is now he will be way off our scale...

[BonesJones]

Not exactly a transfer rumour but just needed to highlight what a fuckin' idiot this bloke is.

 

When asked where Grealish should move to, Deeney told talkSPORT: “Newcastle, easy. There’s loads of teams, anyone outside the top four.

“Anyone outside the top four, he would easily go into and dominate, if he went to Newcastle, it would be considered a massive step down for him.

“But it’s a great club with a great fanbase and I think Jack needs to feel that again, feel that he’s loved, feel that the fanbase love him, but also he’s the man to drive them forward.”

Grealish can't get a game, quite rightly, ahead of Gordon for England.

Ps while we're talking about Man City's left wing they could do alot worse that Harvey Barnes there. He'd bag a shit load. 

 

Grealish and Doku piss fart about too much.

Both statements are true 😂😂

Doku is great, I hear alot of criticism of him but I think he's a fantastic talent and far from the problem at City. Would love him here. There's few players as exciting as him around anymore when they get the ball.

Dibling would be my top target for that position for a variety of reasons, talent, profile, cost, PSR etc. Would avoid Rashford at all costs. If we could stretch to a GK or a CB as well for development that would be a class Jan.

The question mark over Dibling will be his attitude, hopefully he has matured but the move might be too soon for him.

[kingxlnc]

Here's a shortlist

GK - Kelleher / Trafford

CB - Skrinar on loan til summer, get Silva, Diomande or another highly rated young RCB in summer, Harwood-Bellis as secondary CB too

RW - Dibling in the summer (can't see Soton letting him go in Jan) - would love a Kubo level player but may not be possible. Got a feeling they may try and sign Sane from Bayern, Guler on loan would be amazing too. Madueke? Mbuemo. Raphina, Ferran Torres have been linked in the past too. Roony Bardjhi is another one and was recently pictured with Callum Wilson. 

CF - Kolo Muani on loan with option, Jonathon David, Cunha, Delap, Sesko in the summer

Harwood-Bellis is a good shout. Another one who fits our profile.

Problem isn't the players, but their instructions from the manager. Barnes wouldn't be allowed to shoot from distance under pep. He wants tge ball Brough to the box for Haaland.

Should be aiming much higher with our keeper targets imo.

[ExiledGeordie]

I have a feeling Barnes will be off (I think he’ll be away in the summer anyway)

Reports we've agreed with Bakayoko and his agent.

 

Now just negotiating with PSV. Trying to bring the price down with his current contract up in 2026.

Ibrahima Bakayoko was an absolute stud for me on Championship Manager 2, and even though they're different nationalities and absolutely no relation that's enough for me to hope this goes through. That, and a good injury record.

[Checko]

Also I did a firefox translate of the page and apparently "Negotiations between Newcastle and PSV are a lot of stiff stingy." Make of that what you will.

[andycap]

How much they wanting for him?

According to that article, they want 50 million Euros, we want to pay 30, Transfermarkt values him at 40.

 

So presumably 40 million euros gets the job done unless someone else comes in.

 

40 million Euros is about £33 million currently.

 

I wish we'd joined the single currency so my keyboard would have a euros symbol.
