Luton have made a 700,000 EUR bid for right back Dion Cools from Club Brugge. He recently played for Belgium U21.

After Hugill according to Sky. Get in, just the answer we need to our goalscoring problems...

Diedhou is probably better.

If I may crave indulgence from the non-gaseous Bristolians who inhabit these regions...

One Jonny Smith, winger of your parish, came on as "A Trialist" in last night's friendly against Huddersfield. Looked both quick and skilful. He seems to have spent 17/18 on loan at Flyde, and 18/19 at Tranmere. Are you looking for a loan move for him again, or something more permanent??

Wow. There were eyebrows raised when Cov signed Chaplin on loan with a deal in place for 500k with virtually no return and in and out of the Pompey side. Now for 750k - 1M AND up a level...... Not that we can laugh having paid good money for Jervis

I think probably a loan, but I don’t really see him ever making it here. He was decent enough for Tranmere last year, skilful winger that cuts in off the left I think. Probably a bit more developed than Holden who you had last season from us.

I think he was also on trial at Hibs the other day, didn’t work out perhaps.

Get the feeling from rumours flying about that we're looking at bringing 2 strikers in - one as competition/rotation for Diedhiou and another more out and out goalscorer.

If that's correct, I'd be okay with a Moore or Hugill type signing, though I'd prefer the latter. A lineup of, say: Diedhiou; Hugill; Nketiah; Weimann; Semenyo seems alright to me. João at Weds another one who's been linked.

I think Hugill's agent is working his nuts off tbh, not even sure if he even had talks with Wigan.

Was he not in talks with Wigan?

I hope we’re bringing two strikers then if that’s the case.

We weren’t willing to pay what he wanted in wages and we were already paying far too much for my liking.

We’ve still not agreed a fee for Lowe yet, I suspect we may have given up on that one as well since it’s gone dead quiet over the past few days.

Feels like we’re now just waiting until the Prem loanees get released for the season, because we always sign a shed load of them .

Apparently we are in for him. If others can't afford him then we have no hope.

Tbh I wouldn't be surprised if we haven't so much as enquired about him, we do seem to be a name that agents love chucking in there when trying to drum up some interest for their clients.

A good signing for someone in this division would be Bielik from Arsenal (on loan at Charlton last season). He had a great season for them in L1 and is certainly good enough for this level; he shone at the Euro U21 Championships last month.

For me he was in the top 3 CBs alongside Lindsay and Pearson last year in L1.

Are Charlton taking him back?

There were some rumours we were looking to buy him (he's only got a year left on his deal) but that's one that's gone a bit more quiet.

Would certainly fit into the Brentford mold of buying cheap young and flogging him for 4 times the value. You could get him for £1-2m and sell him for £8-10m in 12 months time.

He's someone that now we've got cash on the hip, should look into taking on.

Doubt he'd be as cheap as £1m-£2m, coming from Arsenal, especially after impressing for the U21s.

I'd say more like £4m-£5m

Patrick Bauer clearly carried him anyway...

No one who watched our CB pairing on a regular basis last season would have Lindsay ahead of Pinnock.

Bielik is fucking class.

Be amazed if he came back here. Absolutely ridiculous that he spent a season in L1. We played him at DM rather than CB anyway.

Ajayi for 1.5m to West Brom. Very good business.

Our local journo seems to think that if Nketiah is to go on loan anywhere it will be Bristol City as they’ll pay a hefty loan fee and cover his wages.

Bowyer doesn’t seem to think Arsenal will loan him out though.

We need someone like him, hoping it come soon off. We’ve been after him a long while.

Not sure about this Chaplin kid. Didn’t pull any trees up last season in league one.

I don't think he was our first choice but other rumoured players aren't looking likely. If he's coming in as a squad player I'm happy enough. He's costing us twice as much as he would have when we wanted him last summer though.

Luton have formally announced the Sluga signing that leaked yesterday and they even gave us the details on fee and contract length:


Finally breaking the 30 year old club record transfer fee. I know €1.5m is small beer for most of the clubs up here but it's a big step for us. Shows how far the club has come from playing in non league 5 years ago.

Decent signing at a good fee that.

I'm starting to think he may well be right unfortunately.
We do need a player like him to supplement our existing forwards, as mentioned by JJH.

I do love foreign keepers coming in to the EFL, they don't have a clue to what they are coming into and how little protection they will have compared to where they have come from.
