The suggested €80m for Etikike is a huge fee for a 23 year old who isn't yet capped by his country.

Re: The generic transfer thread

I'm fascinated whether FSG suddenly spending like this represents coincidence, or that Klopp was in fact much more reticent to get behind player's suggest by their transfer committee.

Re: The footballer gets arrested thread

Not a headline I expected to read this morning. Spain's Ministry of Social Rights has asked the country's prosecutor to investigate Lamine Yamal, after the winger hired people with dwarfism to perform at his 18th birthday party.

Re: The generic transfer thread

Spurs have Spursey'd it.

Morgan Gibbs-White deal off for now, with Forest considering legal action for what they consider to be an illegal approach to the player from Spurs.

Thing wot I didn't know. Brazilian goalkeeping legend Taffarel has been goalkeeping coach at Liverpool for the last four years. He has left today to join the Brazilian national team setup.

Re: The generic transfer thread

Various sources saying Guehi to Liverpool is close. I'm still not convinced this is happening but a couple of reliable Liverpool sources going with it - just not the likes of Ornstein and Romano yet.

Jarrell Quansah to Leverkusen nearly there, at £30m + £5m add-ons. Liverpool have a buy-back option for €60m, active from 2027.

Re: England - the future....

Sutekh England 2-1 Netherlands and will now play Germany or France in the final.

Carsley really should step up to the full England Job permanently…


Do wonder whether his going back to the U21s was always the plan, or whether that game where he fcuked around playing no centre-forward ultimately cost him.

Re: The generic transfer thread

Winston Biscuit Kepa on his way to Arsenal for £5M.

He's had an odd career


Yeah, that's an odd choice on his part. Has just had a good season as a starter at Bournemouth, surely another loan move where he will play would make more sense?

He's 30 years old already.

Viktor Gyökeres tells Sporting that he will not play for the club again - after the owner supposedly broke a gentleman's agreement that he'd be able to leave this summer, now playing hardball on the fee.

Re: The generic transfer thread

Jarrell Quansah to Leverkusen is close, and for around £35m, which in the context of the Wirtz price, is madness. Fabrizio Romano says that once that deal is sealed, Liverpool will 'activate centre back options' and are expected to make a bid for Marc Guehi. Any more of this and it will begin to loo...
