Summer Silly Season Transfer Thread 2025

[kiwian]

This is like that scene with the Ents in LOTR where they go "aaaaaand. We. Have. Decided. To. Sign. A. Back up. keeper"



Next up: Bringing back an injury prone loan player we had last season. Oh, such exciting times we live in

On the bright side, we have tied de Fougerolles, King and now Ridgeon to 4 year contracts, look forward to seeing them in action for the first team when the opportunity arises. And not forgetting Tom.

I do worry that we are just in for players that are readily available and not wanted by their clubs rather than players we've picked out that would improve the squad

I'd only take him if it's a loan, minimal wages and no obligation to buy.

Call it a trial in a loan.

No thanks!

[demeant0r]

Shortlist contains the word short which means small. But we've been linked with everyone

Also, no thanks to Sterling.

Sporting CP are close to agreeing a deal for Luis Suarez (Colombian one, not the bitey one) so I think they are out of the Romulo race.

Weird one this. Terrific player once but fallen way off. But hey so had Willian🤷

Not on my list of desired wingers but of course won't write anyone off till I see them in a Fulham shirt having learnt that lesson.

One thing that does concern me is Sesko potential move to Newcastle...makes leipzigs starting striker spot available which makes the Romulo situation a tough one to compete with

[Tabby]

Sterling would be a pretty typical signing, but I don't think he would be a good one.

[hopper]

Yeah I'd be disappointed if we went in for Sterling. Want to see an attacking player come in who's on the rise, we have a lot of wingers already approaching 30.

Would match recent policy of known quantities and PL experience, which has served us well, but also seems myopic at times as there's diminishing returns.

[Coastwalker]

Gets his old form back,and he'd be a great signing.

[@jolslover]

I think Sterling could be a good signing, I read he has only failed to hit double figure goals (all comps) in a season twice in the last 13 seasons. One of which was last year where he barely played for Arsenal.

If we can get him back playing week in week out I think there's no reason he couldn't rediscover some form and turn into a smart purchase (on a year loan with low wage contributions)

Arsenal/Chelsea rejects FC strikes again. Do our scouts ever look at anyone else?

I mentioned before Sterling could be ideal for us. Expectations might help him considering where he has played and a player who can definitely break the lines with his pace even at his age still genuinely quick. We would only be interested if his package fits in with us otherwise it's a non runner. Versatile across forward line or if need be another option in the No10 area? If and I don't know if just paper talk we were interested then Marco must think he can rekindle Raheem enough to be a good addition to our squad.

[Tabby]

Even paying 50% of Sterling's wages would make him our highest paid player.

Fulham midfieder Sander Berge added to Juventus wish list

https://www.footballnorge.com/posts/fulham-midfieder-sander-berge-added-to-juventus-wish-list/

According to a report coming out of Italy, Juventus have added Fulham's Sander Berge to their list of potential midfield reinforcements, as cited by Gazzetta.it.

The Italian side is currently seeking a replacement for the soon-to-depart Douglas Luiz, and Berge is among several options being evaluated. The 27-year-old has performed impressively in a Fulham shirt, attracting the attention of multiple clubs, with Juventus now reportedly one of the interested parties.

Fulham's Midfield Anchor Drawing Widespread Attention
Berge's performances last season have been a key factor in Fulham's stable campaign. Featuring in 36 matches across all competitions, he played a pivotal role in maintaining structure and balance in midfield. His strength, ball control and reading of the game have seen his value rise sharply.

It is fair to say that Berge was significantly underestimated during his time at Sheffield United and Burnley. That perception enabled Fulham to secure his signature for a reported £20 million with an additional £5 million in add-ons. Considering his current form, he is now expected to command a substantially higher fee.

Juventus Among Several Clubs in Pursuit
Although Juventus are monitoring Berge closely, the report made clear that they are also considering a number of other midfielders. It is therefore far from certain that the Norway international will be playing in Serie A next season. However, the likelihood of his departure from Craven Cottage this summer is increasing.

Berge signed a five-year contract just last summer, which places Fulham in a strong negotiating position. The club are expected to demand a premium for a player who has quickly become one of their most reliable assets. If Juventus are serious about securing the services of the former Valerenga man, it will need to act swiftly, as interest from other clubs continues to mount.

[Jimmy Hill]

We may get more Pens if we get sterling.

Luis to us Berge to them personally think that's a win win for us. Nothing against Berge but he is limited in areas as a midfield player.

I've been saying that Sterling could be great for a while now.

Silva is just the man for him and Sterling is very much a Silva type man.

[General]

Sterling would be a pretty typical signing, but I don't think he would be a good one.

That's what people said about Willian before he signed the first time.. how about we let Marco make the judgement call?

Doesn't everyone trust Marco these days. I reckon Marco could be a great man manager for Sterling for what it's worth.
