    He played well in the recent international against England.

    C&H reporting that Slavia want around €25m (£21.6m) and that we've already agreed personal terms with his agent

    I keep reading headllines about imminent transfers, but it's all just clickbait as far as I can judge. Please wake me up when something actually happens 😉😴

    Bid rejected from Spurs for Kudus. £50m. According to Ornstein.

    He’s not worth over £80m but I think we should be looking for around £65m. Double our money in two years. I’m sure Chelsea will come in too.
  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    He’s already expressed a desire to join Liverpool over Chelsea or Spurs so we should hold out for more and see if anyone goes higher.

    Kudus for Harvey Elliott plus £40m should do it

    There's a good chance this means nothing, but I was just looking at the first team squad on the OS, and it includes Krisztian Hegyi, Kaelan Casey, George Earthy, Lewis Orford, Freddie Potts and Callum Marshall, none of whom have been included there in the past, and none of whom have aged out of the PL2 squad.

    It also includes Antonio, who is no longer at West Ham.

    Well, you say that, and of course it's true that his contract has expired, but all the reporting is that it's still undecided about whether he'll stay or not, and he's using the facilities still, so I don't think it's strictly true that he's no longer 'at' West Ham.

    Shame that Liverpool A. Aren't interested and B. He's not good enough for them

    Last 2 seasons:
    £60.0m, Pedro (23) , 19G/9A, 4000mins
    £62.5m, Cunha (26), 27G/13A, 5000mins
    £65.0m, Mbuemo (25), 29G/13A, 5500mins
    £67.5m, Eze (27), 19G/12A, 4700mins

    Kudus, 13G + 9A, 5100mins

    I know G/A aren't the be all, but based on the above the going rate for talented attacking midfielders/Wingers this summer for non-big 6 teams is between £60m-£65m, think after the season he is we'd do well to get £60m

    So were lining up El Hadji Malick Diouf to replace Emerson

    We've been linked with 26yo Celta Vigo Spanish (4 caps) RB Oscar Mingueza to replace Coufal

    Ipswich's England U21 LW Omari Hutchinson has been mentioned by various sources as a possible Kudus replacement

    And there has been a fair amount of talk about Parma's 22yo Japanese GK Zion Suzuki (born in New York, dad is Ghanaian, mum is Japanese, grew up in Japan) coming in as our 2nd choice keeper

    Those four would knock 43 years of the age of the squad!!!
  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    I read that the keeper, if he comes, will be direct competition with Alphonse as our number 1. However there are strong doubts that he would want to come to a side that are so low in the PL.
    He nearly went to Man U in 2023 and they’re even lower than us.

    There seems to be a theme, well there is if you want to make one 👍, that whilst other teams in the WSL are signing new players ours aren’t! Looks as if they have the same policy as the Men’s.
  • ASLEFshruggedASLEFshrugged
    I don't think he'll be too fussy about which Premier League team he joins

    He joined newly promoted Parma last summer and they finished 17th, 5pts above relegation

    Before that he had a season on loan with Sint-Truidense in the Belgian top tier, finished 9th and before that he'd had 29 appearances for Urawa Reds, mostly in Cup games

    Oddly Sint-Truidense had seven Japanese player last season, a bit like Wolves and Portuguese players
  • stevesteve
    Good to see we have all our new signings in this week so they can bond wth everyone =)
  • claretandblueskyclaretandbluesky
    Give the new guy time Steve! Potter needs come in meet the guys and have a look at them in training to see who he wants to keep and who he wants to let go. I expect he will be having little one on one and group chats over the next week or so and devise a plan.

    Joking aside, what matters is that we get it right this time not that we do it quickly.
  • FortuneseekerFortuneseeker
    @claretandbluesky, What was GP doing with his time at the end of last season? 🤷‍♂️
  • ASLEFshruggedASLEFshrugged
    We've signed the Scottish kid and made Todibo's loan permanent

    Fulham haven't signed anyone
  • FortuneseekerFortuneseeker
    ASLEF, 👍 but leaves 18 other EPL clubs who may well have made some “new” signings to play in their first team.
  • stevesteve
    BBC saying Burnley have signed 9 players ,so just 2 more to put out a team =)

    Kudus off to Spurs for £55m, agreement reached according to Ornstein.
  • FortuneseekerFortuneseeker
    IF it’s true that will be another West Ham transfer master stroke, made even worse with it being a sale to Tottenham.
  • EXETERHAMMEREXETERHAMMER
    £10 million short I think. Maybe there is an exchange player too in the deal.

    He may have more raw talent but I don't see him as being a better player than Mbuemo and Pedro, hes clsoer to Elanga who's going for or £55mil...especially after the season he had
