Summer transfer gossip and squad discussion

[Barlow Boy]

They need replacements for Ugarte and Casemiro but be surprised if Ampadu is one of their targets?

1 season at EPL level, feels like KP and City again.

£40mil though be good business for us.

I’d be looking at Stach, if I were them, rather than Ampadu.

Be quiet BB, dont go spreading the word that Stach is a good player. We need to keep him

[CUSSIE01]

Man U seem to be linked with everyone who kicked a ball this year. They need a new manager before they know what players they need.

Carwreck seemed a shoe-in a few weeks ago but Gary Neville is the latest ex Scum player to question it. Is Postecoglou still available ?

[pjm2019]

Some speculation that Man U might be interested in Ampedu.

Told my Man U supporting mate that for £40M plus they can have him.

The response was at that price he was cheap.

My own thoughts are that any of our players are available for the right price.

WTF £40m is far to cheap to sell our captain. I want to keep him and would only consider a bid well in excess of £70m

So somewhere between 40 and 70 million (ish) would seem to be the price but if you watched Ampedu against England in the recent international I'd personally snap anyone's hand off at 40M.

Nothing to see here Man U.....move along

[Aussieleeds]

Don’t understand why so many are keen for us to cash in on our best players. When was the last time we cashed in and got a replacement who was equivalent or better for the same money. We are past needing to cash in a £50m player to buy three average players for squad depth. We need to keep our top 15 and build from there.

TBF Carrick has done an amazing job bar the blip v us.... He's gotten the best out of Fernandes which no other manure manager could. And it's not even the team he built or had a pre season with

Absolutely, I reckon he’ll get the job and it’s only the usual suspects looking for a headline who’re against it.

He wouldn’t be easily replaced for £40m though Jammy, I don’t reckon we have any need to be replacing him yet.

Sold Tyler Adams, got Ampadu.

sometimes you get a player who is Great at club level but does not quite do it at international level - look at scotlands Dalgleish

[GreennWhite]

I cant imagine too many players are going to nail their colours to the mast before they know what league we are going to be next season.

Had a rough 2025/6, 2 app for Leipzig then loaned which doesn't say a lot tbh. then one goal in 24 appearances for Juve.. Tape looks great though.

Technically good, instinctive finisher, good with both feet, very quick

.. 5'9, so doesn't seem to fit our mould..

No injuries so wondering if most his Juve stuff was off the bench

24 in 34 first season at Leipzig, 9 in his second. did well be fore that at Lens and Vitesse, so looks like his career has hit the skids last two season ...A bit of a reclamation project it seems

Lois Openda written off already then

Another player who has thrived in none possession based football.

Red Bull type direct progressive stuff.
