This sounds fair, but I wouldn’t put it past some of the clubs to use it as an opportunity to be able to play more games outside of Europe. Perez is still very much of the mind that he wants a Super League, and given way they’ve acted it wouldn’t be surprising if he used any ban as ammunition in...
He’s believed to be on 88k a week currently at Chelsea, when they started talking about extending his contract last Sumner he wanted a wage that was 6 figures long. Well above what our wage ceiling currently is. Aston Villa, Leicester and West Ham are the clubs being linked and who we’d have to...
Ike Ugbo. 22 years old. Came through Chelsea academy and the England Youth set up. Currently on loan at Brugge where he has 15 goals in 31 appearances. Contract expires 2022 and Chelsea have indicated they are open to sell this summer.

Potential replacement for Ali J?
If we do sign him, we should adapt Pulp’s Common People to make a good chant. We haven’t got enough players with songs currently.
We only named 23 players in our squad for the rest of the season, so we have space. Could only see Musa being a short term option to end of season though.
I think we’ll stick with Potter for the foreseeable.
Benitez doesn’t fit the mould of managers we tend to go for. Plus he was being paid £12m a year after tax in China. Can’t see us paying anywhere near that and he’ll have offers from far bigger clubs in next few months. Possibly chance to...
I seriously doubt that we will see Ryan again in a Brighton shirt. It was made clear that he wanted first team football so I’m a little surprised he’s gone to Arsenal as can’t see him dislodging Leno.
Personally I think one of the main drivers for his exit and his dropping from our squads stems...
We’re being linked. 19 year old central midfielder very much in the Bissouma mould. Equador international. Currently playing for C.S.D. Independiente del Valle which is same club we got Billy Arce from.
Significantly less so far. Orient show 300k total in their account from that year from players sales. We apparently paid less than 100k for Alzate, but wouldn’t be a surprise if there’s a sell on clause.
Ryan’s contract has less than 2 years remaining and it is highly likely that we would have broached the subject of a new contract already. If talks are not going well, then you would expect club would look into getting a new number one in: either as a replacement or to make the point that the...
