January Transfer Thread 2020

Many of these 'links' seem to be to players over 25-26, gotta say.

Oh, I am sure that the club know. Well I hope they do, you never know. But before I (or others) go spouting off, I think that it's a good question to ask. I presume that EU nationals will be treated as non-EU nationals? As for players who are here, I assume that they will have to apply for a right to stay if they meet the criteria otherwise they'll have to go through the work permit route?

Probably not worth worrying about this window. But it will be an issue soon enough.

I’m fairly sure they don’t.

As far as I can remember no definitive decisions have been taken as to how Brexit will affect football.

Although my original jibe was directed at the entire process, rather than at the club or football specifically.

Did anyone see that Ronald Koeman turned down the Barca job!?

He was waiting for the Euro's to be over.

He was waiting for the Euro's to be over.

He`s got to run down his golf diary first.

....and there was Ancelotti saying all of the names we’re linked with in the papers were wrong, then we go and sign Branthwaite.

mar least 1-13 jan wasn’t a waste of time for you though... take the positive out of it!! Lol

Everton are interested in three foreign-based players according to the latest speculation from Sky Sports.
In addition to reiterating talk that Carlo Ancelotti is keen on bringing James Rodriguez in on loan and signing Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot, Sky claim that Belgian winger Yannick Carrasco is a target.
Carrasco, 26, currently plays for Dalian Yifang in China having had spells with Monaco and Atlético Madrid earlier in his career.
Sky's sources add that the Blues have also targeted Bournemouth defender Nathan Ake as they look to strengthen at centre-half but would face competition from Manchester City and Tottenham.

That article was originally posted by Sky as soon as the transfer window opened, for some reason it has now resurfaced. It's been well documented by the Echo that we're not interested in Rabiot, been absolutely nada of any credibility on either Carrasco or Rodriguez.

I'd expect a centre half and centre mid - both probably on loan deals whilst we deal with the haemorrhaging wage bill.

Senior pros who are actually good is an area we are lacking in unfortunately, so maybe one or two isn't a bad thing.

I don't think we'll get anyone of note this window. I just hope Carlo knows the plan ahead of time if that's the case.

Are we linked with Senor Pros, La Liga?

The Echo don’t have a clue. They were certain we never had an interest in Zaha and denied we bid when we had. They also listed Mark Hughes as a front runner to take over as manager and constantly threw water on the Ancelotti links. Not saying we have any interest in these players because Sky know just as little but I wouldn’t take anything the echo says as gospel

As long as his second name isn’t ‘Thetic’ or ‘Tate’ I’ll take him.

Imagine what the wages bill would be for Rodriguez, Rabiot and Carrasco.

They're almost certainly going to have a new president in the near future and regime change at Barca almost always means the manager gets the axe. Xavi turned it down as well.

Sky were the ones most adamant about ancleotti to be fair.
