Born in Tampere, Finland to Sierra Leonean parents, Kamara started his career in England for Sunday side Westway of Ladbroke Grove, before moving to the Southend United youth system then to Arsenal in 2012. At first Kamara joined up with the club's academy. He went on to be an unused substitute for Arsenal's UEFA Champions League match against Galatasaray in December 2014. Kamara made his only appearance for Arsenal a day before his 20th birthday on 27 October 2015, up against Sheffield Wednesday in the Football League Cup fourth round in an eventual 3-0 away loss.

Following a spell with Dundee, Kamara signed a pre-contract with Rangers in January 2019 on a four-and-a-half year contract. On 31 January, this deal was brought forward when the two clubs agreed to a £50,000 transfer. He scored his first goal in senior club football on 27 February 2019, opening a 4-0 home win over his former club Dundee. On 31 August 2023, Kamara signed a four-year deal with Leeds United for fee in the region of £5 million.

And at best he is better, possibly a lot better, at some of the stuff Kamara did poorly such as scoring. Overall he may be a worse player but for this team, and the balance, he should be a better fit and hopefully give us a bit more of what we needed last season which was a threat from midfield. If we have someone who can pop a goal in from nowhere, just a 25 yard rocket then that can be the big difference maker in a game where we are getting frustrated.

It's not beyond the realms of possibility that DF has seen something in Crew, or even Harry Gray.

But i suspect Crew. We're in The Championship, and not the Prem, trying to blood a youngster like he did Archie Gray will be easier against weaker opposition if he feels he's near enough good enough.

If he put Archie in the window in the Prem, i'll guarantee he wouldn't have fared so well and got £40m, and we now know how the rich clubs will pay daft money for youngsters.

He might have found something else in the youth, that he sees fit to start alongside the likes of Ampadu and our other better players, which would help 'carry him'

Ok, it might not work, but what if it does like Archie did, let's say he's a revelation like Archie was, it would be win win.

We wouldn't have to buy.
Player promoted from within.
He might be better than Kamara in certain areas.
And imagine if he shines and becomes worth £20m.

Why not ? It happened with Gray, who would've predicted that before DF arrived huh, 40m for Gray ? You'd have got laughed off the site.

Leave DF to it, he's doing just grand.

ATM Rothwell looks a big downgrade on Kamara imo ... but at least I will be honest if he turns out not to be... I don't do bias, just reason

I think at worst he is possibly not as good at some of the things that Kamara does well - but we don't need that as much because Gruev and Ampadu can do that.

Basically, what we are currently doing, is some good old 'wheelin n dealin' and if you like, yes, like a used car salesman.

Buying and selling old bangers, some newer than others, some old, balancing or good old 'cookin the books

We'll be reet.

These are probably his best buys - with the exception of Rapha.

I do not subscribe to the suggestion that Rodrigo was value, or anywhere even near. He represented a significant financial loss.

Although you missed out ( perhaps intentionally ??) aaronson and the other loan expectations - Rasmus and Wober.

It's probably true that we're left with (mostly) the best of them. Farke has cleaned up a bit already.
