Surely you know by now that Fulham never say anything until it's done.

Sanchez does command he's 18 yard box.

Not this window though. We were heavily linked with GG and Palacios before they were bought.

Quote from: cwindsor on August 31, 2026, 04:55:12 PMTutto Atalanta is reporting today that Fulham are preparing an improved €27 million offer for Raoul Bellanova.

And, for what it's worth, DigiSport Romania is reporting that Andrei Rațiu's transfer is 99% done.
surely not both?

Neutral Zone Ultra

Thought we'd finally learnt our lesson this window but we clearly haven't. Need to really pull a rabbit out of the hat tomorrow and get three in minimum, either way it's not acceptable.

Quote from: junior white on August 30, 2026, 09:43:08 PM35 million bid rejected for Ait Boudal

€35 million will get the number one target, Chibuike Nwaiwu!
I thought the issue was he changed agent and then the add on fees took the deal above 40 million.



Rennes are asking for over €50 million for Ait Boudal and getting a RCB in just before the close of the transfer window is going to be difficult as a replacement will have to be found.
Nwaiwu at €40 million still works out cheaper and the Turkish transfer window has 2 extra days before it

Thing is trabzonspor don't wanna sell at this point and already hiked his wages. Looks a no go at this point and sounds like agent was hiking up all sorts of demands

They aren't the only options

Mbow/ait Boudlal/Le guen/Matsima/Tamori  and an unknown name apparently all on the table to see what can be done

Being linked is what is happening with loads of players, but we never know who we have got until we have got them.

Isn't that the same with literally every club? No DoF or manager is going to go around telling the media which players they're after. The only ones who might talk about it is the selling club, e.g. PSV's manager when we were after Pepi

If Tete goes and the replacements don't materialise then questions will be asked.

Why don't we look at the lower divisions here,there might be some good talent there waiting to be picked up,at bargain prices as well.

Because league 1 is miles off premier league level, the gulf between the Prem and the Champ is already massive.

Going to sit back and see what happens now. Can't be to bothered to read anything more at this stage. Hopefully 4 players, centre back, right back, central midfielder and a wide forward/winger.

There's lots of players over the years have made the step up to higher league given the chance.
If you watched Sundays game it looked as though we had a few league 1 players playing for us.

I'll retract this post if it turns out to be wrong but as it stands, we look almost certain to fail to improve at least 1-2 of the ~3 positions we vitally need to improve. Anyone we do bring in now will probably be our 3rd or 4th choice, and we'll likely pay over the odds because everyone can see how desperate we are. There's a good chance we'll spend £100m this window and end up weaker than we were last year. Our approach to transfer execution remains an epic shortcoming in how we're run as a club.

Apparently we're in talks for Hugo Larsson from Eintracht Frankfurt. No idea what this would mean for the Angel deal.
