Summer transfer window 2023

[Evertonthat]

Always liked Kelechi Iheanacho but not sure if wed paly to his strengths.

He's costing Leicester over 4M per year in wages with 1 year left. They will want to retain some players but he might be one they have to let go to trim their finances. Seemed decent enough at City as a second fiddle striker, but never really pulled up any trees at Leicester. I think we could do better.

Interesting that Bordeaux are the competition there - it looks doubtful that they'll get promoted to Ligue 1 now:

Bordeaux-Rodez abandoned after fan attacks player

Bordeaux's hopes of promotion from Ligue 2 are in doubt after their final match of the season was abandoned after a Rodez player was attacked by a fan.

You'd like to think that would give us an edge there if the story is true

From Tammy onto Weghourst who to me looks utter tripe....

Everton are keen to sign Netherlands striker Wout Weghorst, 30, when he returns to Burnley from his loan spell with Manchester United. (talkSPORT).

Holpefully this is more tabloid dross rumour.

Mate the source was talk sport!
About as reliable as a chocolate tea pot.
Your going to get this all the time from terrible media outlets.

@FOXINPEACE didn’t rate him very highly at all.

Doubt he can get a work permit. Grand total of zero international cap.

 

[Yarrgh]

IhenachNO and WeghOUT.

Isn't it easier for South American players to get work permits now?

Might have some European roots.

We need to focus our budget on the areas of greatest need. No time or money can be wasted on other positions until we find solutions in attacking areas.

Last summer we spent ages on other positions, and then went into game 1 without an available striker. It was a complete mess from start to end of the window.

Exactly. Our goal return was embarrassing and the reason we were down there again.

45m for Gordon …

Got to be at least 70m for onnana

No one is giving us anything like 70 80 or 90 mill for Onana mate. Why are people obsessed with the idea that we are going to command that sort of money for him? The only way anyone is paying anywhere near that at the moment is through add ons and performance related bonuses which wont really help our warchest in the short term which is what we need.

Can we sell the war chest? It’s barely ever full and we can probably get by with an old cake tin with a few fivers in at this point.
