Stickied Transfer Rumours & Confirmed Deals Thread 2023/24

[Ciderup]

Lots of talk from both sets of fans that we've got Keiffer Moore. Given he hasn't travelled on Barnsley's training camp and we leave for ours next week, it may be true.
With the rumours about Nketiah, we're either building some squad or Fammy is off.
Sign those 2 and keep resisting bids for Webster and we're good to go I think.

Would Keiffer Moore score enough goals to get you into the top 6 and beyond? I'm not convinced to be honest.

He’s a league one striker. Board want him off the books before his contact runs out and so they can bring in fresh faces. I’ve got all the time in the world for him after last season but I’m not going to be concerned if he leaves.

I don't think we've finished in all honesty.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

Jack Stacey to Bournemouth for £4m apparently.

 

[JJH]

Moore’s a handful but he’s not going to ben the number 9 that’ll fire us into the Premier League. If he signs (I don’t think he will) I will presume that Diedhiou is off.

 

[Aberstone]

Jack Stacey to Bournemouth for £4m apparently.

Listening to Graeme Jones' post match interview today he almost seemed resigned to losing Jack Stacey. Shame he's only got 12 months left on his contract as Luton could have held out for way more than that, he's nearly always been Luton's best player whenever I've seen them play live (admittedly not often).

 

[That Fat Centre Half]

4 million is very good I think given he is in his final year of his contract, double what was reported a few weeks ago. Gutted he is going but I guess was always going to happen.

Must admit getting slightly concerned about things. Haven’t been blown away by who we have brought in, all seem solid if unspectacular, would like to see us targeting a few players on the way up the leagues if possible. Think we look a little thin and with Stacey going we don’t have much “family silver” so to speak, in terms of upcoming players with sale potential going forward. Hope we spend a bit of this money from JJ and Stacey but ideally would have it sorted before the pre season training camps.

Doesn’t help with what others in this league have to spend, makes our business pale in comparison.

I tend to agree and to lose 3 key players within days of each other would be a real blow. That said I think we’ve made some canny signings for £0. Players that come with half decent reputations who probably just need to be loved and managed a bit.

For me, his ability and potential exceeds Kevin Foley and Emerson Boyce.

~£1m goes to Reading too.

 

[Kenneth E End]

Just looking at our squad and who might also be attracting interest from elsewhere and their potential values...

I know a couple of clubs were looking at Pelly Ruddock - he's also heading into the last 12 months of his deal; I'd value him at £600-750k. Same situation and value with Luke Berry.

Top scorer in League 1 James Collins still has 2 years left; I'm surprised he hasn't had parties interested in him, but don't think we'd sell for less than £2.5m and for a player never played at this level before and heading into late 20s, it's probably the reason why.

At least we can now build now rather than lose players. We still need to move on players - in my opinion: Stech, Jervis, Jones, Musonda.

 

[MagpieBee]

Apparently the Jansson fee isn’t even £5.5m straight up, it’s £4m and only gets to £5.5m if we go up. He’s also taking a (small) pay cut to join us.

All signed and sealed, just waiting on the medical on Monday.

Don’t know what kind of magic our DoFs are working with but I love it.

 

[M Dogg]

Portuguese revolution continuing with Yuri Ribeiro chucking in from Benfica

No idea either

 

[SMH]

Bid accepted for Sam Gallagher. Loathe as I am to complain about us spending money, I do not feel comfortable with us probably blowing all of our budget on a striker with a worse goal scoring record in this league than Leon Clarke.

 

[The Southbank]

Liam Kelly close to joining Luton on loan apparently. Was an excellent player under Jaap Stam, obviously not liked at all by Jose Gomes as he has barely featured since he took over.

 

[M Dogg]

Roofe going Rangers?

Thoughts about this? Obviously needs to have no recall clause / season long loan as we don't want to go down that road again.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

Bodvarsson to Millwall?

 

[Bobbin']

Millwall fans next season.

 

[KevinMcallister]

Roofe going Rangers?

Might aswell

 

[M Dogg]

Might aswell

It’s alright you signed Costa so can afford to flog your other good players

 

[Super_horns]

Raya confirmed

Blackburn will be disappointed to lose him but maybe an offer they could not refuse ?

I'm glad its looking like you beat us to him,we already wasted 7 million last year on a forward that cant score,we dont need another.

I think Mowbray has forgotten how shit our defence was last year.so far hes been looking at midfielders and forwards and has not bothered improving the defence.

 

[Gavin85]

One of the youngsters who played for Cardiff City's U23s at Taffs Well as a trialist is apparently due to sign for us.

Tom Sang (ex-Manchester United).

Don't know too much about him, other than he apparently played for AFC Fylde on loan last year.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

Jansson to Brentford is a very strange deal.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

Liam Kelly set to join Feyenoord it seems.

 

[MagpieBee]

£2.75m fee supposedly, so I don’t think it would be “too good to turn down territory”

 

[MagpieBee]

According to Sky he’s going to Feyenoord on a permanent deal.

 

[That Fat Centre Half]

Rotterdam or Luton...can’t believe we’ve lost out on that one

 

[markwwfc1992]

Mitrovic signing a new contract at Fulham is huge for them.
