Confimred - Chem Campbell

[blythspartan]

A few rumours on x suggesting this lad is booked for a medical on Tuesday. He’s a Wolves player and has had 2 loan spells at Wycombe. It’s probably bollox, but it would be a sign that the takeover is close.

Glad someone knows something and that the sale will all be sorted on Tuesday (Monday is a public holiday).

Supposedly a Winger from Wales played 17 games for Wycombe in 2023 scoring 3 goals and then played for Charlton playing 12 games and bagging 2 goals. He's 22 years old and an ex Wales under 17 international.

This could be a real possibility after Reuben's comments yesterday.

We are working in the transfer window now Femi is not with us, to bring one player at least and the EFL should allow us to do it. If the takeover happens then we should have room to get a couple more to support us. If it doesn’t happen, maybe we will need to work with free agents.

Makes sense - I’d assumed we only let Femi go thinking we could bring someone in

Missed him a lot yesterday

How did his medical go on Tuesday? more bullshit rumours.

We are delighted to announce the loan signing of Chem Campbell, who joins on a short-term deal from Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Welcome to the Royals, Chem!

Good lord!

[Royal Ginger]

I don’t get it.

[Clyde1998]

Caught out completely by this. Seems to be a winger or attacking midfielder - makes sense as he'll be the direct replacement for Azeez. Shame he won't be available for today though.

I have a theory about the Selles misunderstanding regarding could we sign a loan player.

I think we could but they couldn’t play for us until the takeover is completed. The Chem deal was announced last night so the club could say he wouldn’t be eligible tomorrow . However it’s been suggested he was here on Tuesday.

After today we haven’t got a game for a fortnight so the club will be hoping to get the deal completed before then. If it isn’t then it will be interesting to see if Chem “has a knock”

That sounds plausible, the photos were taken during day time at Bearwood.

Thinking about it, I think that's absolutely the reason for the confusion that led to Selles/the club thinking we could replace Azeez before the takeover happens - we could sign players, but couldn't register them to play (ie. negating the purpose of signing players).

Wouldn't make sense for us suddenly to have signed a player before the takeover has been completed otherwise.

Happy enough with this. Seems a Selles signing - my guess is he’s a hard working pressing winger rather than a fancy Dan type. Basically another Knibbs type who should give us a bit of depth and another option up top
