Sorry if this has already been posted but Arsenal and us have been linked with Clément Grenier 23 yr old french winger from Lyon and I really can't see Arsenal needing or wanting him so that leaves us in pole postion! Has also already turned down Newcastle this summer. http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/498407/Arsenal-and-Southampton-on-alert-as-Lyon-s-Clement-Grenier-admits-exit-wish
On the subject of Sam Byram. How about we offer Jack Stephens on loan as well as the 4-5m fee we are likely to have offered. Win win for both partys then. Leeds will have money to spend for promotion push and a good young player to help replace him for nothing.
How do you know they wouldn't pay £20m? Not saying they will but they'll comfortably pay more than we would be willing to.
He's young and would be a risk but then again he could turn out to be a world class defender for 10 years
And they have no left back other than Shaw so need another option + won't have a problem paying the 3rd party fee. Transfer to them makes a lot of sense.
No but you have reminded me he is very useful at RB and would currently be our second choice which also goes some way to solving the lack of game time for some of our 7 CM/DMs
Good Shout
Forster
Clyne Yoshida Fonte Bertrand
Wanyama
Ward-prowse Tadier
Tadic
Pelle Ramirez?
CB, Striker and Winger needed still before september TBH
Why not just deal with it in September? More important things to worry about like getting players in till then. First team contracts aren't that simple, big money involved. Corks will likely be a 4 year one if he is to be offered one.
If reports are correct he'll be our record signing if he comes, gonna have his work cut out trying to be better than previous ones, Osvaldo, Delap, Delgado etc
Think Davis has a good chance of starting, if he doesn't so be it another player will have the armband if he isn't selected but his experience of being Rangers and NI captain and his consistant good performances means he's ideal for the Role
He was promised a move before WC but players leaving has changed the situation but deal between other clubs was no where near agreed spurs only bid 10 million
