[Albion] Moises Caicedo - New contract signed until summer 2027 with 1 year extra option.
- Thread starter Lurchy
- Start date
I find it hard to believe it'll be that simple for them.

PLANNED replacement. It doesn't *always* mean a player who is already at the club!
My guess is that there is a shortlist of players for each position and the club keeps tabs on them and buys at the right/best time. Sometimes it works perfectly (Bissouma/Caicedo), other times their hand is forced (Cucurella/Pervis).

I can feel a Chesney Hawkes moment coming on……
Gutted for our boys, though I would have found England v Ecuador difficult. Proud of Moises for being our first World Cup Finals scorer. All three of our players acquitted themselves more than admirably. Well done lads.

Judging by the rumours in some press it appears we're losing big Bob, Trossard and Caciedo next month and all 3 to Chelsea!!

Estupinan and Mac Allister have also had mentions as well, to Juventus and Inter Milan respectively. Try not to get too upset until it happens - maybe it's just agent bollocks.

I saw the Inter rumour about Mac Allister, apparently available for 30 million Euros

And they are apparently complaining they can't afford him at that price !I saw the Inter rumour about Mac Allister, apparently available for 30 million Euros
I blame the World Cup. Worst thing possible for picking up 23 year old internationals at sensible prices.

If we believed everything that press and that Romano said, Cucurella would be storming it at Man City. According to him it was a done deal, with personal terms and the fee agreed. He must have announced that about 5 times.

"Fabrizio Romano accused of plagiarism by De Telegraaf! "Romano is a kind of transfer guru, but he's the number 1 copy-paste [...] All of Europe thinks that Romano is above everyone, but he only steals exclusives from journos in all countries" said Marcel van der Kraan, Head of Sports at De Telegraaf"
"Mad how that Fabrizio Romano has carved out a niche for himself as more or less a full-time Twitter ITK. He doesn't actually write about football - he's just a relentless transfer scoop machine. Is he the first to make a living out of being an actual no bullshit ITK merchant?"
To top it all he supports Watford

Exactly. According to various know-nothings in the media, by the end of January we'll be left with just the three central defenders plus Enciso, Lallana, Danny Welbeck and the tea lady. All the others will be at Chelsea/Liverpool/Tottenham/Inter. At least it's not Villa!
Seriously, the depth of these so-called journalists' 'knowledge' is laughable. One of them claimed that Ally Mac had been 'spotted' at the World Cup - as if every club in the big four leagues doesn't already have a scouting report on every player in all the others.
Yes. I was going to start a thread on it. But I found I had something in my eye.
