Over €20mil, Gent want €30mil.

Never heard of him tbh

23 goals 10 assists last season.

Not sure what to think, Belgium is such a poor league compared to the Prem.

Seems very well thought of though, bit like Almada, linked to everyone.

Plays as a number 10 mainly but can play anywhere across the front line.

Oh and he is linked to Adidas according to his Social Media.
I've heard of him! Apparently Lille are after him, so it sounds like the owner is trying to get more money from them by mentioning us.

I'd rather sign David than Cavani now. Bielsa would turn him into an £80m player.

Press in Argentina are saying we're close to a £9m deal for Lucas Martinez Quarta. That'd be an absolute bargain!

David, Almada and Quarta would be a superb window.

We'd just need a GK and a LB and I'd be happy.

Things feel so different to the last few transfer windows. Such a breath of fresh air. Let’s just hope it’s not a false dawn.

I agree that we'll still need a GK and LB. Would be surprised if we signed David and Almada - for me, would be one or the other. I do think we need two CB's (one starter one backup)

This could be a very interesting window now we are financially competing at the top level for the first time since 2001/02

What about "home grown quotas" and since the UK is no longer in the EU what does this mean for players fro the continent getting visas.
There is all this talk about getting in Argentinians, but am sure the premiership has some rules about how many non nationals you can have on your team on any given match day.

If it isn’t different this year we’ve got real problems. Even the great man’s managerial skills won’t be enough to keep us up if we don’t strengthen with quality additions.

Lets hope so.

Its time for Radz to come good on his past talk (not having a pop, very grateful to him just saying he has been full of the big talk for years).

He has always spoken about what he can do if we are promoted, who he knows etc.

Looks like no QSI (who Radz named himself a year ago as someone he was speaking to and we could be the next Man City, seems to have gone back on that).

Fair enough he has earned that right.

Talking about Conte in the press and Cavani.

So hopefully something comes of this sort of talk.

I have faith :)

We are being linked to some ballers!!!!

Makes a nice change from the last 16 years!!!

And unless the Gent Chairman is having us on we have already bid over €20mil for a player. Cant see why he would name us specifically even if he is just trying to drive up the price, so its all positive so far :love:

And a LB - Happy to keep Dallas as squad player
Not really on a winger - Harrison, Costa, Poveda, Hernandez + Stevens

GK (or Casilla)
2 DC (one senior, one prospect)
LB
AMC
Maybe a ST, but I could give Bamford and Roberts one season
