Summer 2023 Transfer Window Thread

[GoldenHorseshoe]

I've heard that too!

I know nothing Mr. Fawlty.

 

[DJLWolf]

Harry Winks is one of those players who looks very pretty recycling possession but doesn't actually do much of anything. Basically James Ward-Prowse but without the set-pieces.

He's a posh Karl Henry.

Don't think I've ever seen him pass the ball forwards.

 

[Sussex Wolf]

You can live with a guy that's smacked sombody though. The original story, wouldn't want him at the club

In cases like this it’s worth adding the caveat that the woman registered a report that she was punched in the nightclub, but I haven’t seen anything since then to say he was charged, let alone found guilty. Neither do we know the circumstances around this alleged incident, not that I’m condoning violence if it did indeed happen.

 

[wolfslair]

That would be as close to a perfect window for us under the circumstances I think. Gyokeres and Scott probably upwards of £20m for either of them. Bounou maybe £10-15m. Baku quoted at £15m. Garcia release clause at £18m. Ocampos £15m reportedly.

£100m~ outlay could be realistic if we get the sales we need, John Percy's article distinctly said that the budget could change depending on outgoings. Selling Neves, Coady, Collins and Silva for a combined £100m would certainly help.

Just need to find takers for the likes of Sa, Podence, RAN, Raul, Jonny, Sanderson who are all reportedly available too. Raul and Jonny I think we might struggle for takers with the wages they're currently on. Sanderson might be £2-3m. Podence rumoured at £7-8m to Turkey recently. Sa probably £5m~. RAN not much given the 50% sell-on clause.

I think it would take another big sale to spend that type of money, Giles could be expendable if a big bid (£10-15m) comes in if Julen is happy with Bueno and Toti on the left.

From what I have been told Gykores isn’t coming to wolves as things stand and no one has matched even coventries basement valuation. So at the min this one is in limbo for all parties.

So as things stand. With selling Collins and Coady we will be lacking cover at the back and still have no goal scorer up top
Excellent

You can't blame Coventry or Brizzle for starting high, both clubs know a big fee could potentially set them up for promotion if they spend it wisely. I can see them dragging on for weeks as neither side is likely to budge on valuations, we may move onto other targets. A real shame as I think both would genuinely improve us.

 

[YouGottaRaulWithIt]

If we don’t sign anyone do we start the season in last seasons home kit??

I reckon it's a sneaky tactic to get us playing in red this year.

hold fire give it till about 10th july concrete links will come

 

[StaffordWolf]

hold fire give it till about 10th july concrete links will come

I'm not interested in concrete!

 

[oldgoldheart]

Maybe because JL didn't think it was going to be his last match for us? Just putting it out there

Well raul definitely did

 

[oldgoldheart]

Apparently Traore been taken off our squad list for next season
Obviously gone then

He was released ages ago. I got grief just for providing the link to prove it

 

[Pengwern]

After his Op, Raul could recover, have a good pre-season and be almost back to his best

 

[Oldgold Wolfcub]

I'm not interested in concrete!

I am trying to work out what is cement by that comment.

At least we may see an improvement from match officials !

 

[Northampton_wolf]

Yep was off squad list and removed from team on website alongside mouts and costa.

Pretty much its done and dusted, just waiting for curtain call on friday.

 

[Oldgold Wolfcub]

Even better the opposition plays in Old Gold. We would be bound to win the league.

 

[NothingButNeto]

Didn’t you say late this week or early next week? What is significant about the 10th?

I don’t mean to be rude or question your information, just trying to get a sense of something changed.

I thought with Neves gone, Coady going, Collins probably out and Adama being done (and the other contractual exits) we would have some money to make some moves. Is there a new holdup?

 

[wolfslair]

After his Op, Raul could recover, have a good pre-season and be almost back to his best

I think we all want that!

It is also more likely than Sasa being available for a whole season based on his injury record.

We just need a striker who can stay fit and do the only jobs that matter, get into positions INSIDE the box and stick it in the goal. I don’t care if they can’t link up play for wingers near the half way line, or running into wide channels isn’t their strength. We just need a person to go into the box and stay there, we have enough people who can do the pretty passing stuff and not enough direct threat inside the box.

 

[Golden Arrow]

I'm not interested in concrete!

We need something to build a team with.

Not claiming ITK, on this, so ill clarify.

Wolves themselves need clarification on outgoings, one of which is adama, then collins and coady.

There is no holdup they have ducks in a row and hobbs and jl will make moves. The international window opens on the 1st, i said 10th from my own volition given that by then and the fact we will be back in preseason and players have come back from international duty, moves can be done.

The snippets were that the interest in wahi is real, @Cornwall Wolf added that actually ran was being touted to go the otherway, but all i got was wahi was an option and the other is that gyokeres would like to go to a prem team and wolves.

The remaining is we are shopping in the furture gems market, south america.

Thank you for that clarity. This all sounds good to me.

My only concern is the HG quota. Obviously no issue if the South Americans are U21, but losing Coady or Collins would hurt that requirement, no?

You haven’t got pitbull Gomes in there ?

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

The holdup is called complacency.

Given that we were told we had to sell before we could buy I'd say it's moving pretty well. Excellent price for Neves, Collins looking like a smart sale (albeit a bit of a shame), Coady hopefully making a fresh start at Leicester. Obviously if we don't get some signings in by the middle of July I'll start to get stressed, but I'm not going to be losing the plot in June! I trust Hobbs and Lopetegui have a plan for incomings, have to have some patience.

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

J gomes....he will have to be named....as will bouba..

So (in the very unlikely event of none of those listed leaving) we're maxed out on overseas players?

 

[Yorkshire Wolf]

Hobbs won’t be able to sleep at night when he hears you’ve said this

 

[CelebrityWolf]

Why, every single transfer window do some **** the bed immediately? Rarely does any club get much business done til about a month before the season starts.

 

[SA Wolf]

Yay, at last the renovation of the ground commences.

 

[Northampton_wolf]

nope free of 1

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

nope free of 1

Cheers. Just to check if I can't count or if someone still counts as u21?

15 on your original list plus Boubacar and João Gomes, 17 allowed.

Where did I go wrong?

 

[wolfslair]

The holdup is called complacency.

I have had many pops at the heirachy based on what I hear from people at other clubs.

But Hobbs is well liked, proactive and pursuing leads for sales and transfers in a faster way than his predecessor, who was described as “slapdash” “overly arrogant” and “slow” by people I know who had the unfortunate experience of dealing with him……

Any perceived lack of speed is only what the club is sharing as info, I know first hand the club are making moves in ways that you guys wouldn’t moan about.

They have given me faith that a quality re-build is on the cards

 

[Lobo de Ouro]

Can't remember if Lobo was a trusted ITK or not...?

Don't even know that myself.... I would say maybe a third of the things I'm told end up materialising, a third make sense enough to be labelled "could be true" and a third show no signs or evidence of ever having been true.

I'm told we have 3 ready to go early next week. Not long to wait to find out which third that falls into.

Bouba was already covered (#12 - B Traore).

 

[Black Country Wanderer]

How about Mosquera too?

How about Mosquera too?

On loan for the entire MLS season isnt he ? that ends October. December if his team make the play offs
