The generic transfer thread

[Pepe the Horseman]

Hull will get promoted.

[NathStPaul]

That would be a Hulluva achievement.

[YorkshireRoyal99]

can't say I have followed Hull much but I keep reading how good they have been and how impressive Liam Rosenior is

Not to do undo the job Rosenior is doing, but they have pumped a fair amount of investment in as well on transfers and wages since the owners has changed. A mate of mine is a Hull fan and he says that they have several players on £20k+ wages, including Estupinan, Sayyadmanesh, Jean Michael Seri, Tufan and Vinagre apparently.

Radu Dragusin chooses Tottenham over Bayern. His agent sounds pissed off.

[NathStPaul]

Chose game time over money, refreshing to see.

His agent said as much. Apparently Bayern offering nearly twice as much, but he'd get gametime at Spurs, and also already gave them his word. Principled man, like him already.

Is Mbappé's contract up at the end of the season? If so, I can't seem him going anywhere this month.

Should pave the way for Eric Dier to Bayern. Everyone wins. Apart from Bayern.

Genuinely think the Dier transfer is to give Harry Kane a mate.

There was a period of about 18 months where Dier looked fantastic. Think the ship might have sailed though.

First season under Conte he was great. But he's not agile enough for Ange's system

[WestYorksRoyal]

I think about all these transfers in the context of "Could it help England?". If he finds form for Bayern it can't be a bad thing, though it's not exactly a challenging arena week in week out.

[Winston Biscuit]

This is the part of the transfer window mostly made up of Fabrizio Romano reposting the same rumour every 6 hours but pretending something minuscule may have happened to move it forward

[NathStPaul]

I worry about him. He was Tweeting out Turkish league rumours about obscure players on Christmas Day, not sure all is well at home.

saw him tweet stuff about some obscure player to a sh*t league late on NYE and someone replied to him taking the piss with something like:

'coming out for some beers tonight to see in the new year Fab?'
'nah sorry lads, there is a guy in Latvia sorting out his employment contract and I need stay on top of it so I can announce it'

which I lolzed at

Seen him interviewed and he comes across as quite a strange guy tbh. Just very deadly serious about it all.

I mean, fair play to him I guess, I am sure the financial rewards that come his way are pretty sweet (its fairly obvious that on top of his day to day general rumourmilling, he also works for some clubs and some agents)

Mbappe really needs to move out of the French league. Don't get me wrong, I know he is world-class, and there is no asterisk against his record, but he's already 25 and hasn't played top tier domestic football yet.

Yep, would imagine he'll end up moving to Real and smashing all sorts of records. Can't see any other outcome.

Yep - albeit ironically the one league where he'd struggle to given the stupid records Messi has set.
