Quote from: demeant0r on July 15, 2026, 03:01:14 PMI read somewhere they made a bid of €40m for Muniz. I'd snap your hand off for that right now. I don't think he fits Arbeloa's tactics.

It's unheard of for a Brazilian club to spend that much, so I guess this isn't anywhere near true.

They hold a 28% sell on clause so if we ask 30m they would pay 22m

Wow that was a poor transfer negotiation strategy on our part.

Not really, we got him for just £7m, so we can make a big profit. I expect we'd want to get at least £30m net for him, we turned down £35m last season.

No way his performances since then will retain that value

I guess it depends on whether Arbeloa rates him and whether we need the money. I'm sure he'll get the chance to prove himself unless we get an offer we can't turn down.

Flamengo spent mega money for Paqueta, so they have money to spend for sure.

It will be interesting to see how many of the team that finished the last game actually start the first game

Fulham submit new offer after 2 bids rejected – Player pushing for PL move

Fulham are stepping up their efforts in their ongoing pursuit of Trabzonspor's Chibuike Nwaiwu this summer.

The Turkish club invested €6m to sign the centre-back from Wolfsberger AC in January. He cemented his place quickly and made 21 appearances, and this didn't go unnoticed.

Last month, Sport Witness covered claims from Turkey of Fulham's interest, but he wasn't keen on a move initially.

The Nigeria international has changed his stance and is now open to a move. On Tuesday, we relayed news he has agreed on a four-year contract with the London club.

Fulham refusing to backdown

Footy-Africa states the Premier League side have submitted an offer of around €25m but makes no mention of Trabzonspor's response.

Punch Sports in Nigeria pick up on that and shares more on Fulham's offers.

They have returned with a new offer of €25m plus €3m bonuses, after the Turkish club rejected their opening €20m bid.

Trabzonspor have again turned it down and are demanding €30-35m. He has a contract until 2030, and Transfermarkt value him at €10m. This won't put off Álvaro Arbeloa's side, who are expected to return with a new offer.

Chibuike Nwaiwu, who was initially reluctant to leave, wants to push for a move to the Premier League side.

Update on Fulham's pursuit from Turkey..................

Fotomaç provides the Turkish view on Fulham's efforts to sign the 22-year-old defender.

This seems more advanced than claims from Nigeria, as the newspaper states Fulham have submitted a third bid of €30m. This is probably including bonuses.

Trabzonspor have granted Álvaro Arbeloa's side permission to hold talks with Chibuike Nwaiwu, and the latter has found an agreement for a contract until 2030.

Fotomaç claims the 'countdown to the transfer has begun', indicating the clubs would find an agreement eventually. This is likely the expected scenario considering all parties in favour of Chibuike Nwaiwu's transfer to Fulham.

Quote from: FFC007 on July 15, 2026, 04:14:55 PMI think Bissouma is second hand damaged goods in my opinion.

He won't be cheap wages wise.



He is on 50k per week and one of Tottenhams lowest earners, less than Reed for reference

Quote from: JimmyConway on July 15, 2026, 03:50:36 PMWith regards to right back how we are not all over Wan Bissaka at Westham all things considered. Good defender excellent crosser of a ball and experienced the type a new manager can rely on?

If we're talking English RBs I'd prefer Norton-Cuffy from Genoa (ex Arsenal). Seen him linked with us and I'm a big fan. Would be on way less wages with a lot higher resale value.

To be honest though, RB is another area I just think we don't really need to strengthen. I think Castagne and Tete are more than good enough and would rather see money spent elsewhere.

Castagne is not good enough in the PL, looks OK against weaker players in the WC, but PL he gets stretched to often. Tete is great but does not have a full season in him

Castagne was probably our best player last 5 games.. agree we could probably upgrade on him though but as backup he is fine

It's getting exciting now, just under 7 weeks until we know if we've signed anyone. Roll on Sept 1st.

Sadly we can't claim that anymore as we were amongst the first club to sign anyone on June 27th (Kusi Asare)

If there's anything in it, this would seem a bit odd.
Didn't seem anything special when we sold him to Strasbourg for (allegedly) £7m. Obviously had a good season in France as is now said (by who?) to be worth three times that.
Right footed left winger (plenty of them about) would surely only make sense if we negotiated some fancy pay-back clause when we sold him.
