Who do you want for next season if we go up?

any ideas who we could sign for the RCM role?

Really depends what our kind of market is. 
 

If the possibility is there to sign 2-3 players in the £15-£20 million bracket like Burnley & Sheffield United did last summer, then that kind of fee should go on a RCM. 

 

Matt O’Riley & Gabriel Sara would be the obvious choices. I also like the look of Ismael Saibari of PSV. 

 

As for a cheaper option, Adrian Bernabe would be perfect. 

[UniFox21]

Wouldn't mind Szmodics, absolutely ripped it up this year.

[Kp1984]

Yeh szmodics would be a shout. Him and cannon rotation. 

[Mark]

Milan van Ewijk looks great

[Pliskin]

Victor Torp. He looks really decent. 
 

Re Schmodics, I’d only be interested if it was for pittance, he’s 28, so there’s no resale value there, I probably wouldn’t go for him if Blackburn want anymore that £10m for him. What’s his contract situation like there?

[Sly]

I think we’ll purchase 5 players if we go up, as we’ll use Kristensen / Soumare within the squad. 
 

CB : Bryan Okoh, Castello Lukeba

 

CM : Jobe Bellingham, Ismael Gharbi, Gabriel Misehouy, Lucas Gourna-Douath, Isak Bergmann.

 

FW: Alvaro Rodriguez, Youssoufa Moukoko, Liam Delap. 

 

RW : Antonio Nusa, Charlie Patino, Rayan Cherki.

[Big Blue Maff]

Sammy symodics of Blackburn 

o’Hare of Coventry

Presuming we go up, I think Jordan James from Birmingham would be perfect for the role. @Ric Flairhas mentioned Kypriannou from Peterborough on here, but whether he's PL ready is a big question.

 

We could also look at Charlie Patino from Arsenal but doesn't have James' dynamism for me

 

Maziz from Leuven 

[Tommy Fresh]

Yeison Guzman

Look into Kamory Doumbia at Brest. Looks a real talent.

Please go sign Ollie Arblaster from Sheff Utd, boys gonna be a talent and Sheff Utd will need the money, he’ll only have played a handful of prem games by the transfer window so won’t cost an arm

and a leg.

Cool name as well

I wonder if his parents dropped an s and an e from their surname ?

Really like that shout.
 

For the majority of this season he has featured from the bench, more recently though he has been a starter and has seriously impressed me. 
 

Has technical qualities on the ball, while his work rate off the ball is fantastic. 
 

He is currently on loan from Reims, but if he doesn’t go to Brest permanently, then I wouldn’t mind him as an 8 option. 

[Dan LCFC]

Don't sign O'Hare. Bottler!

[kingfox]

West Ham & Fulham supposedly interested in Fotis Ioannidis of Panathinaikos. 
 

He’d be my number one choice for a new striker if we secure promotion. 
 

Ticks a lot of boxes.

[Staffordshire Fox]

I'd like to see us raid the bloated squads of 'top teams'. Starting with Chukweumeka and Chalobah at Chelsea, but there's quality right down the order there with good resale potential.

Agreed. Although I'm very interested in our links to Hlozek today. Not happened for him at Leverkusen but he's a beast in the making.

[Stadt]

Josh Brownhill on a free - we've been linked before too. We need a versatile 6/8ish player to bulk up the squad.

 

4 goals and 2 assists for a shit Burnley side and his defensive stats are impressive. 

[Fazzer 7]

Do we know if there is going to be a transfer embargo?

[Foxes with Sprit]

Gianluca Scamacca, he would another dimension to us, like Vigo looking striker at man city.  Looks like he's got a nasty/street wiseness about him.

Both Ioannidis & Hlozek would probably fall into the £15 million bracket, which would hopefully be a realistic market for us. In Hlozek’s case though, as you said on the other thread, a loan with an option to buy could be a route to go down. Could put a few strikers in that bracket tbf, Eddie Nketiah & David Datro Fofana spring to mind. 

[Shane]

Morgan Whittaker could play upfront in Enzos system and provide cover for Fatawu.

The  (highly dubious) transfer embargo has been imposed by the EFL, not the PL, and won't apply if we go up. If we somehow failed to get promoted, it presumably would be lifted if we sold enough players in June to avoid a PSR breach for the period ending this season.

[Ginger_Filbert]

Barkley is a perfect fit on a free.
