Our complete list of transfer targets

[Silverhatch]

Wishful thinking on Perez i suspect, has to be on a fortune at Arsenal and has been burned by them, desperate to get back to Spain i would imagine.

Some Arsenal blog purported to reveal all the salaries at Arsenal. Perez was reported to be on £70k a week over his 4 year contract. Wouldn't get anywhere near that that at Deportivo (or the Albion). Now being reported that Deportivo have offered £9m.

Sounds about right to me, therefore way out of range to us

Way more for me, be suprised if he was on less that 65k at Arsenal, probably more

If Perez is available on a wage of around 35-40k then we should be all over it.

Quick scout round the net suggests anywhere from 40-70k depending who you believe. Prior to the transfer, Spanish press saying his salary would double to 40k if he left Depor for Arsenal and I don't see why they'd underestimate it. Interestingly, although he is now banging on about wanting to go back he is also annoyed that a move to China in January was blocked so I guess he could be persuaded for the right contract. All that said, if we could genuinely sign him then I suspect there would be a queue.

Although it's probably unlikely to happen due to wages. I could see us monitoring Perez's situation as he was a target for us before he permanently joined Deportivo back in 2015 -

Just dont see a 20 odd million pound goalscoring striker going to Arsenal for less than 65k a week... would love to be proved wrong and for him to be in range but doubt it

Check his career prior to that one decent season at Depor and it'll become more believable, even if it is incorrect!

We were after Lucas Perez 3 years ago, so at least he'll remember us sounding him out.

Hope we get him.

Just a feeling......and AN has sort of hinted ,that TH will be sold. He IMO just will not get the game time that he seems to insist on.Bloom will not let this players contract run down.He is just too similar to Murray,and playing 2 similar strikers ,is just not going to happen........5million !

I agree with you. I don't see that Tomer has any of the star qualities that you need in the Prem - height, pace, exceptional finishing or the ability to bully defenders, hold the ball up etc. Obviously don't get rid unless you have a replacement but £5 mill pays the wages for a two decent strikers.

A £4 million signing bonus can offset a £25,000 wage reduction over 3 years, allowing us to sign players who would normally command £70k a week.

GK 3 : ( May end up being Sanchez )

Utility defender : Gomez, waiting on Liverpool.

Central Mid : Delaney, impasse over fee.

RWing : Cafu ? Coco ? Haraguchi ?

Striker : Perez ?

 

[HCxUK]

Really can't see Perez coming here if Deportivo are prepared to offer him a 10-year contract. The only realistic way we could sign him would probably be outbidding Deportivo, but even then I'm sure that personal terms would be a stumbling block.

The latest round of rumours seem to be around Premier league based players, so, I'm expecting a player from Europe who hasn't been mentioned anywhere.

Sounds about right to me. But do you think the winger would be an addition or to replace an outgoing Skalak or Murphy? Surely we cant have March, Knockaert, Skalak, Murphy, Brown, and a new winger as wide options.

 

[lawros left foot]

I think we may re-visit an earlier mentioned target later. With Baldock, Murphy and Duffy all were rumoured early in the window, then it all went quite before we signed them late on, so, Delaney is still a possibility.

I doubt the plan is to sell Murphy or Skalak - the club made a point of featuring Skalak in the PL photoshoots, which they certainly wouldn't have if he was half way out of the door.

However, "Every player has a price" of course.

I'm not actually sure we'll bring in a winger now anyway - maybe an U21 like Ollie Burke, or maybe Bjordal will have a role. Brown seems an option in that position as well.

 

[the right footed denilson]

Jamie Hopcutt, according to a BBC article about him.

 

[GT49er]

Just based on one game, I know, but based on last night's game I wouldn't mind the club taking a closer look at Southend's Dru Yearwood - looked a terrific young player - great work rate, tackling, speedie, good anticipation and never wasted the ball when he got it. Only 17 too.
So, one for the Dev.squad maybe - but looked ready for 'grown-up' football. Snag might be that he's just signed a four year deal at Sarfend. Could be loaned back for a season if we bought him, I guess.

 

[Wiggy Power]

I'm gonna throw 2 names in the hat........Rico Henry and Jordan Morris. Both would be cheap and worth a punt for the future/back ups.

[Blue Valkyrie]

Gomez off the list.

Ales Mateju on the list and may even be signed soon.


Perhaps an update soon, CJ, if you have the time, focusing on the 4 positions the argus mentions ?
