WalthamOwl Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 27 minutes ago, Bloxwich Owl said: Middlesbrough are ready to firm up their interest in Derby County defender Cyrus Christie. It is being reported that Boro's search for a right back sees Christie as one of a number of targets. Boro have missed out on bringing in Chris Gunter, who has signed a new contract at Reading. It is understood Boro activated Gunter's release clause of £1m earlier this week but the Welsh international has extended his stay with the Royals. Christie has a year to run on his contract at Derby and there is speculation surrounding his future. We should be in for him, quality player and would much prefer him than someone like Hutton.

Markowski77 Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Might sound bias, but any of our top/star players, moving to anybody in our division is a backwards move, at best sideways, we are as good as anyone in this division and shouldn't sell to promotion rivals.... personally I don't think we will. but we all know once these pesky agents get in their ears about earning an extra 10k a week it could all change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloxwich Owl Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Fulham are reportedly competing with Crystal Palace and Birmingham City in the race to sign French defender Alexander Djiku. The 22-year-old defender has been attracting interest from across Europe this summer, with the likes of Bursaspor, Olympiakos, St Etienne and Caen said to be interested in signing the Bastia player. But French publication L’Equipe is reporting that Palace are one of three English clubs also keen on the defender, with the report suggesting that Bastia are considering a quick sale to raise money.

Bloxwich Owl Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Wolves have entered the race to sign Porto striker Vincent Aboubakar. West Ham and Newcastle have also expressed an interest, but Wolves could pull off a shock deal with Nuno Espirito Santo believed to be a key factor. The 25-year-old was a huge success during his loan spell with Besiktas last season, scoring 19 goals in 38 games. Aboubakar has 60 caps for Cameroon and scored 18 times.

Mr Hooper Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Wolves are really going for it. It'll be a very interesting season. They're not just signing expensive risky signings, they're signing proven players from the top European leagues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEnchanter Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Aboubakar! Top striker. Playing at the top level in Portugal and Turkey as well as the Champions league he's scored 37 in 80 over the last 2 seasons. A cut above most at this level.

Think with us only wanting 4-5 players in total we'll be waiting a bit to be honest. Some of the best deals, as we know, happen after the season has begun. The domino effect of moving players on and club's getting replacements makes others available. Like the pigs have done it's easy to sign loads of crappy players at this stage because no one else wants them and you don't have much rival for the signature. Either that or you agree to pay the full asking price for a player. Might be waiting a bit but I reckon we'll only have 2-3 players in by the time we play Preston to be honest. Hopefully first team players that'll improve an already strong team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
