The Transfer Thread 2020/2021 - Everything not Wolves

[YoungWolf]

Decent signing for them, though they gave Keane a new big contract and Mina is first choice (though often injured), so wonder how much he will play

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Keane is woeful, I have no idea why they gave him a new deal.

 

[Sniffer]

McNumpty going with Watkins to Villa for £28m rising to £33m. Steep!

Now confirmed. Now I'm sure that he is an upgrade on what they have, albeit for a huge fee, however I can't quite understand that if he so good why didn't Smith see his Premier League credentials and sign him 12/18 months ago?

 

[Sniffer]

Oliver Burke to Sheffield United, Callum Robinson going the other way confirmed.

 

[Nando]

Sounds like Reguilon is going to Spurs. They surely can't be looking to line-up with four at the back with him and Doc as full backs.

* see this is already being discussed elsewhere.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Woah - Spurs going for Bale on loan as well. Blimey.

 

[The Bear]

Real have said they'll pay half his wages for a loan. Still over a quarter of a million a week though. Jose must have locked Levy in a cupboard.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

More than that. He is on north of £600k

 

[Jabbawolf]

Anybody else think Bale seems to be a bit of a tosser - yes, contractually, he can sit there and pocket his £600K per week, but why not accept, say, a still incredible £200K just to play?

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Wales. Golf. Real Madrid. In that order.

He fucking despises Zidane.

Tbf he was perfectly happy to go to China a year ago (whatever you think of that as a career move) but Real blocked it at the last minute as they decided that they wouldn't let him go on a free after all.

He still seems plenty motivated when he plays for Wales, even if he's not quite the player he was.

 

[Stan Hullis]

If I was being paid £600k a week I wouldn't be in a massive rush to have it teared up too be fair.

 

[Tony Towner]

If I was being paid £600k a week I wouldn't be in a massive rush to have it teared up too be fair.

I do get that, but how many £600ks do you need? He's in the Autumn of his career and will still get £150k a week

 

[The Bear]

WBA get their Luznhy moment with 36 year old Ivanovic. At least Luzhny was playing for Arsenal and was a year younger. Still shite though and we still got relegated.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Ivanovic looked finished for a good 18 months before he left Chelsea and that was a while ago.

 

[Stan Hullis]

I do get that, but how many £600ks do you need? He's in the Autumn of his career and will still get £150k a week

But he's won a lot of trophies, became one of the top 3/4 players in the season including scoring the winner in a CL final - maybe he's just not bothered any more? Now he gets to coin it in and set him and all his family up for the rest of their lives.

Not sure whether I agree or not but I can see it being partly the case.

 

[Del Woppio]

His family are already set for life for multiple generations tbf

 

[The Bear]

He'd still be getting his full wage with any loan in any case, so can prove his worth for any future permanent move.

 

[Del Woppio]

Plenty of chatter about both Reguilon and Bale to Spurs

 

[Carrotdude]

Reguilon all but confirmed now
