    Rumours that we have approached Udinese about their left back, Udogie.

    apparently we've asked how much is udogie in the window?

    Don't know how to link to specific posts on the enormous transfer thread over on KUMB, so hopefully the above is acceptable; far too good not to share 🐶🐶🐶😂🤣😂
  • If I had typed that, you know what response I would've got :)
  • I suppose if we sign Broja on loan it give us money to spend elsewhere rather than coughing up a large fee .
  • If we're close to agreeing personal terms, I can't imagine he's injured. How would he complete a medical?

    And didn't Tuchel say it wasn't a bad injury? I suspect Broja going out there was part of the game Chelsea have been playing and the 'injury' might be something similar.
  • Not sure I'm happy with a loan with no option to buy. He has a good season then Chelsea take him back or inflate his priced and we're back to square one.
    In the meantime we may miss out on someone like Scamacca, who we are closely linked with, who scored 16 league goals for a mid table team. 🤷‍♂️

    Idk, not everything's a conspiracy. They probably took him because they have very few striker options, he's a Chelsea player and they wanted to get a closer look at him. He was wearing a protective boot, and I'd be surprised if many players would do that without some kind of injury.

    Have you seen our medical team they passed Andy Carroll and Jack Wilshere

    I think they have improved they kept Antonio's hamstrings from going most of last season which is a miracle

    Let's just get both. Succession planning for Antonio.

    If one comes in on loan I could see us bringing them both in, which would be very exciting.

    Bowen / Antonio -- Lingard / Vlasic -- Fornals / Benrahma

    ..............................Broja / Scamacca
  • Tuchel said Broja was in pain but played down an injury concern
  • at the rate Fabrizio Romano is going Broja will have signed for West Ham and sold before he actually lands back in London
  • Expecting Ex to be stressing out because someone else is reporting the news as he can't now because of his patreon.

    Yeah, I read that his latest podcast was due to be released at 4pm with a number of exclusives.

    Sounds like there'll be nothing left to break at this rate.

    So to summarise this morning's rumours, Broja is flying back to the UK having pushed for a move to us, and a permanent deal is very close (via Fab Romano), and we're confident of signing both Lingard and Onana this week (via The Standard).
  • Apparently he's on the plane home now, overnight to sign, Broja that is.
  • Aguard, Areola and Downes all signed

    Broja on loan with an option to buy

    Lingard fills Yarmalenko vacancy

    Onana fills Kral vacancy

    Diop to Fulham if Dawson isn't seriously injured

    To my mind that would be an excellent summer's transfer business

    Almost perfect. The only other thing you could ask for would be signing a left back to replace Masuaku and compete with Cresswell.

    If these go through, you can see how these targets and their characteristics were identified because of the specific gaps/weaknesses we've had and needed filled. That sounds like an obvious approach but it's usually not felt like we've done that.

    Hopefully all go through and work out.
  • So how many points do we win the league by if we make all those signings

    Absolutely!
  • West Ham have made an undisclosed offer for Hertha Berlin defender Jordan Torunarigha. The 24-year-old German was the subject of a 2m euro (£1.7m) bid from Belgian side Gent, where he spent the season on loan, but the Bundesliga club value him at 5m euros (£4.2m). (Voetbal Nieuws - in Dutch)
  • Is Broja considered 'home grown'?

    Believe so.

    Seems like Broja wants to come to us which is great,but not counting my chickens yet, did see a pig fly once but thats another story =)
  • What does make me a bit nervous about all this Broja talk is that although personal terms have supposedly been agreed, and he's on his way back to the UK, Chelsea still haven't formally accepted our offer.

    So everything we've read this morning could be moot.
  • thanks a lot ocs ,Way to bring me down =)

    But that might be more about whether they want to sell or loan, rather than whether we've bid enough.
