Vaclik will be gone in the summer. I can’t see us renewing his contract after the latest injury.
Damn feel bad for Vaclik. He just can’t get right.
Saw the rumours with Thauvin again, but also Milan very intrested. He would be really good signing, specially now when we need player who is good in 1 on 1 situations with defenders and can provide danger from wide, this what we saw from Ocampos last year. Also he is scoring a lot of goals, exactly what wee want from out wingers. His contract expires at the end of the season so this is great opportunity.
We’re linked with Aymen Barkok of Eintracht Frankfurt and Papu Gomez of Atalanta.
I don’t know much about Barkok, but Papu Gomez seems like a very interesting player, however, him turning 33 in February 2021 doesn’t sound that good. He is supposedly leaving on January and Juve are also linked with him, so not sure what to expect. It seems like we’re going after a midfielder, but I think the priority should be a full back, although we’ve not been linked with any player of that position for January.
Damn that kinda surprised me, He was one of my favourite fifa players maybe even 10 years ago im surprised he isn´t 36 by now, really expected him to be older, 32 (soon 33) is an age I would still believe to be good enough like Pablo Aimar did for more years then I expected too at Benfica.
What I’m about to say may be crazy, but I’m gonna say it anyway. What if we tried to sign Riqui Puig from Barcelona? He’s been rotting away on their bench this whole season for whatever reason, but he’s a fantastic player and I love watching him. Thoughts?
I always found him to be too frail to be a CM. Perhaps you get away with that in LaLiga, but he seems the type of signing for Villarreal or Real Sociedad.
Plus there are rumors of a lack of work ethic. Do not want that on the team.
Idk I think with a good manager like Lope, Puig could be a world beater. Just my opinion tho
Possible. The talent is there for sure.
Brazilean Striker eduardo gabriel aquino cossa or “Pepé” from Gremio and Ianis Hagi from Rangers. Have been rumoured.
Also still Erick Pulgar but right now he doesn´t make sense, he´s for sure a good centre mid and better and more versatile then some of our options now but It shouldn´t be priority.
Pepé sounds interesting but again its not really a centre forward. It´s like a attacking mid/left winger, but one who actually has scored goals.
Barkok has few games but a decent contribution to goals, so statwise looks good but can´t say anything usefull about him really.
Our obession with attacking mids is a gap Éver has created.
Carlos Fernandez will be on the way out in January, I can´t imagine otherwise.
All of the latest rumors are weak to be honest and those players wouldn’t add anything to the team. Except Papu Gomez maybe, but he’s less likely to join - and Dmitrovic if we’re still interested in a goalkeeper.
Yeah i agree with ShendM there don´t seem too many strong rumours.
Brandon Soppy from Rennes was one of them too, he has a good look to him but didn´t impress me that much in our CL games. Good, young, shapeable defender still.
Reine Adelaïde another French talent on our radar, he might be a big one.
The only one that would be an amazing signing is Thauvin, but I doubt we’ll manage to get him.
Wait… Banega is coming back?
Banega’s replacement is… Banega!
Very ‘too good to be true’ though, as Al Shabab are doing very well in the league and they are possibly aiming to win it (or at least top 3), with Banega being their key player. Not sure how they would allow such operation.
Ahh… the comments suggesting it’s a joke for the Day of the Holy Innocents.
I’m actually hoping it doesn’t happen. We need to continue developing the youngsters
