oldtype Posted August 28, 2025 Share Posted August 28, 2025 If we do sell Isak, we'd probably have enough money for a Wissa type + one vanity signing like Fermin Lopez or Mainoo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have just spent the money we had earmarked for Joa Pedro and Ekitike. So the Isak sale would free up funds for Wissa + another purple. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stottie Posted August 28, 2025 Share Posted August 28, 2025 Kind of obvious, but Woltemade not going to AFCON makes it easier to buy an AFCON-headed striker, like Wissa or Jackson. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OoOGazOoO Posted August 28, 2025 Share Posted August 28, 2025 (edited) It'd be great to add Wissa in as well as Woltemade Edited August 28, 2025 by OoOGazOoO Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

duo Posted August 28, 2025 Share Posted August 28, 2025 As much as I have become to despise Isak - he is still a World Class striker and if we can get him to play having Isak and Woltemade would put us in the the title challengers bracket Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats a separate issue. That's my point though... We'd need £25M for Willock and £40M for Barnes, just to break even on what we paid for them. Prem scouts will know both can be had, but nobody's really sniffing around at those prices (although I'd argue both would be pretty fair deals) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted August 29, 2025 Share Posted August 29, 2025 20-25m is likely going rate for Willock. Two years younger than Longstaff. Barnes scored some blinders for us last year. I just dont think he really fits what Howe wants. Seems like such a weird signing, just trying to be opportunistic maybe. Do think we could get close to 40m for him too. Market is crazy and he can score goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginola Posted August 29, 2025 Share Posted August 29, 2025 We aren't getting Gallagher, that'd be way too much positive news in a short space of time. He'd be absolutely perfect for this squad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubaricho Posted August 29, 2025 Share Posted August 29, 2025 After Big Nick, if we bring in Gallagher and Isak stays, we've had a nearly perfect window. And if the injuries end up not being bad we’re cooking this season for sure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d prefer we find either a true 6 to backup Tonali or a right sided 8 who’s in the Ramsey mould of attacking threat. Maybe not a dribbler but a technical player.

toontownman Posted August 29, 2025 Share Posted August 29, 2025 Missed Mainoo requesting to go out on loan. Would be a ridiculous fee unfortunately. Unless we have an option to purchase I dont fancy Eddie working wonders and sending him back to Manure lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
