The Official Silly Season Summer Transfer Thread 2018/19

[Dragon]

I'm sure someone will tell me but why has the Fulham official Twitter just liked Danny Ings birthday tweet?

Would assume someone's finger just slipped while they were looking through the timeline given we're presumably following the Liverpool account.

[FFC1987]

Usually that means he's signing. Seem it like that about 83% of the time.

fabri at medical stage now

Hearing that Alfie Mawson hasnt signed on the dotted line for Burnley yet. Lopez ,who it sounds like Slav really wants is weighing up an improved contract offer from Espanyol.
I reckon we'll have to pay miles over the odds to get him, just dont know why we dont stump up that little bit extra & get Mawson.
Hes desperate to return to London, ticks a lot boxes, young, English etc.

Probably because Mawson had knee surgery and won't be fit for the start of the season?

2 other reports linking us with Willian Jose now. Maybe the Mitro deal has hit a snag...

The Mitro deal seems to have been snagged since we left Wembley.

[wheelerdeeler]

I'd love if we did sign Willian Jose don't get me wrong. He's levels above Mitrovic and not that more expensive. I just think this is one that's been taken from thin air to try and get Fulham and Newcastle fans a bit worked up before Mitrovic is made official.

Sure enough.

Hes back in training & hopes to be ready for the start of the season

IF that's correct it's the result of their own procrastination.

Mitro did amazingly well for us I just hope we don't pin to much hope on him in the Prem, we ideally need two strikers this window to push each other on for a place

Knees are a problem area though so I can sort of see where the club are coming from. We need any CB we buy to probably drop in and be ready to play instantly and if he's not gonna be ready or he has complications then it's a hindrance to the club. I admit I think he's a decent player that would fit in well for us, but the only thing I would say is that he's not the quickest and we play quite a high line so that might also be a factor.

I agree, I took to the bloke and I think he took to us so I'd like to see him back but Newcastle have been playing silly b*ggers. 

[JoelH5]

Willian José would be a great signing for us. He's rated very highly.

[Mince n Tatties]

Alexander Meier (35) free agent,top scorer in Bundesliga 2015....Or is he past it?

Yea we were lucky not to sign John Carew all those years ago!!!!!

😂 yep, apparently  due to jumpers knee?? Played another 250 games & scored about a 100 goals after he failed it

[DevonFFC]

Twitter are saying Newcastle are favourites for Danny Wellbeck now

[FFC1987]

Newcastle on loan is a weird one.....Seems they can't afford him but are favourites for a loan deal.

[colinwhite]

Mitro deal is already sorted and will go aheead when he gets back from hols according to "the Mag.co.uk
"
