Sunbury Fox Posted 11 August 2025 Posted 11 August 2025 (edited) I think there is a very good chance that we don't pay a single transfer fee during this window. Just loans and free transfers. Edited 11 August 2025 by Sunbury Fox 1
FrankieADZ Posted 11 August 2025 Author Posted 11 August 2025 1 minute ago, Pliskin said: Is it? Or have we got another name in mind? yeah probably a third rate striker on loan from a premier league team, someone like Dane Scarlett who has 8 goals in 75 games

MPH Posted 11 August 2025 Posted 11 August 2025 I’m hoping we have someone better in mind… or at least someone who we think is better.. 1

mozartfox Posted 11 August 2025 Posted 11 August 2025 Probably back to Palace for another loan. The last one proved fantastic 🤔 1
Pliskin Posted 11 August 2025 Posted 11 August 2025 I’m not overly fussed. I think he would have ben worth a shot, but I’m not bothered if we can get someone better in.

RonnieTodger Posted 11 August 2025 Posted 11 August 2025 What a day of transfer news. Forest handed transfer boost due to Europa League status. Newcastle want Bilal. Kone going to QPR in a very affordable deal.

Lambert09 Posted 11 August 2025 Posted 11 August 2025 (edited) We are so predictable. This is exactly the type of conversation that will be happening behind the scenes. Glover: Kone has had a great season, if you look at his stats he will fit in exactly for what we look for. He is big, strong will link up and score goals and he is young. He's available for just 5m due to his contract Rudkin: Very interesting but im worried about his lack of playing at a higher level. We will put in a call but i want to keep waiting on the other options. Glover: the players from the prem experienced list? Rudkin: Yes, the ones with top level experience. I think we need more leaders in this team. Ive given the green light to let monga be involved so its really important the striker is experienced and will also draw in the international interest. Glover: Thai influencers? Rudkin: Yes of course. I dont know how tik tok works but top wants to grow our presence. Glover: Ok..... Rudkin: So how are the names on that list? Any changes Glover: Yes, well Bamford is still available but they will be asking for a fee close to Ayews as they will use that as a measuring stick Rudkin: Ive told them already, we cant do that this year. Not until we have brought in close to 100m. We cant be failing psr again but id love to have him. What about DCL? Has he made a decision yet? Glover: he's not really scored any goals recent..........................Rudkin interjects Rudkin: Marty he's pure pedigree, when I look for horses for King Power race team, thats exactly what I look for. who trained them, are they popular. You wont get a better bargain than that pedigree and his whole package would be only slightly higher than that Kone person. Glover: yes but with his wage he will cost far more.......rudkin interjects Rudkin: but this season its the same, we worry about the next 5 years later. Glover: do you want to here about the scandanavian targets or the french strikers some real gems in there Rudkin: Best not, we dont have much time now. Give dom a call, tell him we will meet his terms Glover: Urh jon I think thats outside of my job description Rudkin: Okay, not a problem. I'll just finish watching a place in the sun and then I'll make the call. Put the striker search on hold for now. Oh and btw.... I need a list of wingers and cams to replace our best players, looks like they might be off. Sorry I told you not to bother when you asked earlier/ Glover: Jon we dont have a lot of time what network should I prioritize? Spain, prem loans? ive got that knee operation next week I told you about, ill be out of commision. Rudkin: Just wasserman. wait, by god marty youve done it again you brilliant man. We can just call Oxlaide-chamberlain. Ask him about knee recovery and tell him we have great role for him. Edited 11 August 2025 by Lambert09 1
Ric Flair Posted 11 August 2025 Posted 11 August 2025 50 minutes ago, Jazzy_Jeff said: Could we have been put in a position where we were told that to avoid a deduction we have to cut our wage bill by X and bring in Y in fees? We still have four loan spots so we might be waiting until the end of the window to make the most of them I would not be surprised if we point towards minimal transfer business for the last two windows as our defence for mitigating circumstances.
JimJams Posted 11 August 2025 Posted 11 August 2025 We're going to go for Datro Fofana on loan aren't we? 1
Chief Keef Posted 11 August 2025 Posted 11 August 2025 As much as I would like one I can’t see us going in for another striker unless Daka leaves.
kingfox Posted 11 August 2025 Posted 11 August 2025 🎵 Franculino Dju, Dju, Dju, come on and join the Leicester 🎵 2
STUHILL Posted 11 August 2025 Posted 11 August 2025 I wasn't overly hyped by this anyway. Think we can do better. Maybe we will hit the loan market for an out of favour or young striker from a Premier League club.
lcfc_forever Posted 11 August 2025 Posted 11 August 2025 Fossehub has heard that Kone rejected us, but hasn't had a reliable journalist confirm it. If true and it was for example over wages, glad the club are finally seeing sense.
GingerrrFox Posted 11 August 2025 Posted 11 August 2025 As much as people might be annoyed, personally I don’t think he starts above Ayew as the striker in Marti’s system. Ayew is a better player than Kone. 1
Poznan34 Posted 11 August 2025 Posted 11 August 2025 The type of low risk, high upside bets we should be making. No doubt we'll on the phone to Wasserman for an over-the-hill chump on wages we can't afford.
