He's quote tweeted his original news story with a BLUE AND WHITE circle and an egg timer.
He means its happening ...soon. its a tease and a call back to the fact that he's led the way here.
If it wasn't - he'd know, and he'd be breaking that news.
If you want to actually have an 2 way exchange with the agents or a real person in the office. Then just type "Speak to agent" a couple of times and you'll end up speaking to someone. And then if that doesn't work - then they are, in my experience happy to call you if its a particularly tricky...
The Athletic reported a few weeks ago that Moder (and Dahoud) were not in Hurzeler's plans for the season.
I don't know if that's true but he is obviously under pressure to trim his squad. He says he likes working with "22-25 players".
And they have to be fair to players if its likely they're...
OR - he wanted to bring in Kadioglu and with Estupinan coming back - had a chat with Weir / Greer along lines of whats best for Barco in terms of his development and games time. Hence loan for 12 months and then back at BHAFC. Not sure how that necessarily means he's going to be sold / not...
Agreed. It really isn't that unusual for players to recover from ACL injuries or long absences out these days and then return to regular PL football / and previous form.
Yep as per other reports in the Turkish press this morning.
"Almost certain he will be leaving by the weekend....negotiations are now only on bonuses and the payment plan (fee agreed) "...
He's still their player. Billy Gilmour played for us on Saturday for example.
That said i suspect you'd get long odds for them both playing this Sat/Sunday.
unlikely Rushworth will stay as third keeper . perhaps as no.2 pushing verbruggen . but he'll want some gametime. so if Steele stays i think Rushworth will go. (but hard to get decent goalkeeper loans late in the window so difficult to predict).
No. rumours that Rushworth stays and becomes #2 and Steele goes . (but i think that's unlikely.
Guessing the 3 keepers are Verbruggen, Steele and Cahill.
so a possible 22-25 squad that looks like
I've got the (likely) squad down to about 27 !!
Goalkeepers:
2.Verbruggen (2028) - 22
3. Rushworth - (2027 + 1 year option) - 22
Cahill ?
Full Backs
5. Estupinan (2027) - 25
6. Veltman (2025) - 32
u21. Hinshelwood (HGP) (2026) - 18
Kadioglu ...
Getting into the business end now.
Strong reporting of incoming for O Riley, Kadioglu , and then all manner of reporting about exits/loans (Sima, Lamptey, Barco, Sarmiento, O Manony, Yalcouye, ACD) and still expecting no place in the squad for Dahoud and Moder. And no confirmation where we are...
They can take capacity to 32,500 with some North Stand rejigging. They were going to do that before Covid hit - isn't the closure of Dick's Bar when fanzone finally arrives - designed to give them some more NS options (presumably extra hospitality seats ? ) .
Possibly that too. Because Estupinan rejoined training last week, Kadioglu is presumably joining us within 48 hours and we (probably) have a CB incoming alongside a fit Hinshelwood - who played for the first time in 5 months on Saturday. Alongside a fit Dunk, JPVH, Veltman, and Webster.
And...
