The happy days are here again, hopefully no more repeated arguments, transfer thread

[Northampton_wolf]

Personally think he got lucky re Nunes, despite his tweet on it being eerily spot on. However, I would happily be proven wrong and eat humble pie if what he’s saying here is true. Would be an insane signing

Ramos is the better buy honestly.. I will eat my own excrement if we sign evanilson and this bloke/lady gets it right

Getting more unbelievable by the second - Evanilson would top Nunes in terms of a signing - PCLOSS really pushing their luck here.

Losing track here with all these names being mentioned. Does anyone know how many
home grown players we need in a match day squad .

I don't think we 'need' homegrown players. We are just limited to 17 non-homegrown players who are over 23. So having homegrown players is more about being being allowed to have a bigger squad.

That's my understanding at least I could be wrong.

Nunes is a bigger coup that Evanilson?

What if a team does not have eight home grown players?​

A Premier League club can choose not to have eight home grown players as the maximum squad size is 25. So if a team has five home grown players then they can register only 22 players in their roster.

There are no limits on the number of foreign players in the starting XI of a Premier League side.


Wolves current home grown

Collins
Sarkic

I wouldn’t say he’s a bigger coup than Nunes, but he’d be a very impressive signing nonetheless. 21g + 5a in all comps for Porto last season, only 22 y/o too

 

[Oldgold Wolfcub]

I think you are conflating ‘has a club ever not played a player to avoid triggering a clause’ with ‘is that realistic in this instance’. I don’t think it’s remotely realistic with MGW & Forest as he’s their marquee signing … I don’t really think you do either…
As to you not thinking it’s a good deal fair enough, time will tell…

Agree time will tell. I am however not conflating anything. I have just simply said that clubs have not played a player because it would have triggered another amount they would have needed to pay. That is fact. That means it could happen but not that it is likely to happen.
None of us know the exact terms of this deal. We dont know what the terms would be if Forest were to sell him. The only thing we will know if it comes out how much he will be worth in the future as opposed to how much we received for him.

Neto isn't and never will be Home Grown, as he was 19 when he joined us.

 

[Cousins78]

Cannot see the evanilson rumour to be true, be northwards of 65 mill plus

 

[lets all have a disco]

Why in earth would he do that? We gave him a contract, and if we want him gone and have no outside interest, need to pay it up. If not we're no better than Barcelona!

Cause it is affecting his career...... nobody wants him ....cause they don't want to pay a % of 65k a week....it's big money for the type of clubs who would be interested..... If he was on a free he might get a decent contact, say 2/3yr deal in serie b and can concentrate on his football again.....he might end up without a club at this rate ....not playing.

With his background, once he's a free agent there will undoubtedly be interested parties. The best way would be to offer to pay the difference of his salary for any new contract with another club.

 

[Oldgold Wolfcub]

All players are available at the right price

If MGW IS 44.5 imagine shi’s price on Neto

One of my favourite singers was Tim Rose who many will not even know of. He was American but had more success over here. Big guy with a great sense of humour and a deep brown voice. One concert I saw him at he introduced his next song something like - I know would like to sing for you my hit record in your country 'Morning Dew' which my manager tells me was a big hit here but my Bank Manager assures me wasn't.
You can say 44.5m but our Bank Manager would assure us it was 25 less expenses.

Bout time we knocked on Porto's door again, been hanging around with Sporting ad Benfica a bit too much, I miss or old friends up the north!

BTW would he be our first ever Welsh/Brazilian signing?

 

[WolfLing]

a deep brown voice

Is this what I think it means?

A voice so deep, it can make one crap one's pants?

Ryan Green probably had a Brazilian so no

Agreed, think he might of got seriously lucky with the Nunes thing and has now tripled down, he didn't really tweet much before that and now he is super active, that said him deleting his account for a few days after dropping "info" about how transfers work at Wolves does seem like someone who got a *******ing off their source.

Super skeptical - But happy to eat humble pie

 

[Flump]

Why in earth would he do that? We gave him a contract, and if we want him gone and have no outside interest, need to pay it up. If not we're no better than Barcelona!

It's quite common really - say a club offers him 60% of his current salary, we might pay him off for the other 40% - we save money, he gets to play football.

Just as we get excited when Jorge Mendes is pictured at our games or in Wolverhampton, these Portuguese clubs must dread the sight of him sniffing around!!

 

[TheConcourse]

Seeing lots of rumours about Neto being available at the right price.

Hoping Guedes isn’t his replacement.

Controversial, but I think we’d be willing to lose him for the right price.

I’m not sure Neto is the inverted forward that Bruno necessarily wants. He’s very much a conventional winger attacking space, which I’m not sure he’ll get heaps of width in this side.

It wouldn’t surprise me if Ramos is a replacement for Neto and Bruno wants 3 genuine strikers in the attacking positions who are more comfortable playing narrow, which is why he’s running with three CM’s.

 

[Oldgold Wolfcub]

Yep he actually started life studying for the priesthood until he was kicked out for inappropriate behaviour. He also did the original version of the rendition of Hey Joe which of course then made Jimi Hendrix a big star.

 

[Banks's Mild]

Have absolutely no idea re the rumour but surely if we planned to spend on a striker anyway and Gibbs White has gone which by all accounts wasn't factored into our spending then why couldn't we now spend that much if it meant getting the right player.

 

[Coops]

Evanilson rumour can't be true as Talking Wolves haven't posted about it.

 

[Metal Wolf89]

From what has already been said its most likely Ramos who will be coming, as Lage has had phone calls with him and wants him at Wolves.

Had the same thought. Neto is far and away most comfortable when he's flying down the left touchline.

Not to the same extent as Traore on the right, but both more traditional wingers than inside forwards.

I think Neto can adapt though. Maybe when Guedes is starting, Neto will move over to the right and we will see more of what he can do there.

 

[SquaddieWolf]

Maybe they haven't read the mix yet

 

[JOSWolf]

Southampton favourites to sign Ramos?

 

[Pompey Wolf]

And then we splashed most of the cash on Blobby Taylor!
Hallelujah....

I remember being pleased when Taylor chose us over an offer from Pompey

Shows how much I know!!!

If Neto goes we RIOT

I dont have a problem with this type of arrangement. Its perfectly reasonable. My issue is asking a player to rip up their contract without them receiving their full share of what is left owed to them.

If he is going to drop to Serie B we'll be paying most of it though, as from what I can gather they have a salary cap of €150k per year plus the same on bonuses. That's less than €3k per week. So if he is on £65k we'll be paying a hell of lot!

I'd be surprised if he's on that much even though he did come from AC - and I'm certainly not believing it it's from that damn Sportrac site!

But regardless, that's where you come to an agreement, if his new club pays 20% of his current salary, and we top it up with 50%, he swallows the difference to not ruin his career any further, and we save money for the year.

 

[5imms]

Yes saw that, thats what im alluding to. Hoping to see it from the horses mouth this afternoon

Saw him in the club shop yesterday and he said he as back this weekend.

 

[Bogota Wolf]

Jota got booed from some of our fans mate. Some of our lot are morons ....shame really.
Diogo was great for us.

And for me as a young man in a foreign land he had a superb professional attitude. I will never forget his attitude when he wiped the floor with Leicester and Maguire in the pre season game.

Or a Neto sale.. I can see something like this play out.

He said in his press conference that he hasn’t contacted him but are exploring other options at ST

This being said though he does seem to know what he's talking about, he said earlier Wolves aren't interested in Goncalo Ramos and this has been confirmed by Bruno in his presser just.

On team news: "Just Chiquinho (is out) and we have three groups to take care of - the group who started the season, the players like Raul, Semedo, Adama and Joao who have started training, the other group is Guedes and Nunes who need to understand our routines." #wwfc


Whos in the XI tomorrow !!

No… we don’t know the ‘exact’ terms. We do have however respected journalists (Percy) saying mid thirties is extremely likely. I think that’s good value. His future value is a matter for speculation and debate. I think we’ve circled the same points enough times now to be honest…

Didn’t he do the fabulous track ‘come away Melinda’?
