January Transfer Thread 2020

[Tel001]

Yeah, I’m sure villa would love to get rid of Grealish in January and send him off to a side they’re competing with for safety.

I’m not sure they would Yano

Looks like the Piatek and Leao rumours around a Kean swap arent dying down.

Id like to see us move for Leao and bin off Tosun with Niasse sent on loan till season end when his deal expires.

Need a quality centre half in, a centre mid and a quality attacker. Obviously that’s wildly unrealistic for a January transfer window mind.

Will accept just one quality centre mid if it means never having to watch Schneiderlin in a blue shirt again.

Will be interesting to see what watford do with Doucoure if they stay sat at the bottom.

I also think we need a right back...

Aarons (Norwich)
Konate (Leipzig)
Doucoure (Watford)
Leao (Milan)

Strength and speed.

We aren’t that rich.

Apparently weve bid £20mil to Inter for Barbosa and €12-15mil for Raphael Santos Borre of River Plate.

River deal wont happen till after the cup final in Argentina on Dec 13th.

Funnily enough we may be waiting till then to also go for Gallardo???

Absolute carthorse that Aarons – runs fast, does nothing else

I just hope we can find someone who can come in and make an impact over the second half of the season. I don't even care what position they play. We just need some difference-makers at this point.

There a fair few decent players to choose from.
Grealish, mcginn, foden (loan),

lollollol

The news that I saw was that Milan only wanted Kean on loan if they were getting Ibra on a permanent deal also. Otherwise they weren't letting Piatek go. Tosun will get linked to all of Turkey's top teams again and reiterate his commitment to Everton and we would be lucky to have Bury take Niasse if we paid them to do it.

Anyone know the validity of the news outlet "Dario de Noticias"?

Or desirable !

I'll also take this time to say that I was right about Neres being butt this season....

Only played more than 60' in 5 games this season being a substitute in almost half the games, lost his place to Labyad who couldn't get minutes last season, having only the same number of goals (6) as Ziyech (CAM) and less 1 less goals than Van de Beek (CM) this season, and with 1 assist (Ziyech 13, Van de Beek 5).

We are absolutely desperate for a striker who can score. Forget signing anyone else in January other than that striker

...not sure what to make of Barbosa (admittedly from looking at clips), looks to have genuine quality but for some reason left-footers always look better and often flatter. His goal scoring stats back in S America are outstanding, yet he’s clearly not impressed in Italy. I understand he has a €25m release clause, so the figure you quote might be shrewd in nullifying the risk.
