Jupiler League though - where we got Obbi Oulare from. £20 million sounds well over the top to me - a loan move would be better, just to see if he could cut in the EPL.
His agent is his sister I think I read. All this talk is agent talk, if he does come to the Prem it will be for maybe 5 or 6m and even that is steep.
#Watfordfc are close to signing striker Mbaye Diagne from Galatasaray The 29 yr old spent last season on loan at West Brom where he scored 3 goals in 16 appearances. Source [ @_hakankurt & @transferdahisi] EXCLUSIVE - Mbaye Diagne has accepted a transfer offer from Premier League club Watford. Galatasaray and Watford continue their negotiations. This guy coming in? Didn't actually seem to be too bad last season in a poor side but didn't really score many did he?
My first thought was 'whatever happened to the claim we would only sign players better than those we already have?' Then I remembered Gray, Perica, Success etc - and then Fletcher...
Now, now... let's give Fletch a chance. I'm also willing to give Perica at least until the end of the transfer window, not so long that I'd have to hold my breath.
Does anyone know if Will Hughes is staying? seems very quiet on that front from the clubs' perspective and he is very conspicuous by his absence in any official social media
I don't think anyone knows really - apart from Hughes himself. From what I've read, contract negotiations have stalled, Newcastle want to sign him for around £12m - which may include a player swap (Isaac Hayden) - and we've signed Etobo from Stoke as a replacement. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Leventhal says Hughes negotiations on going with 5 year deal on table. Also there is nothing in the Newcastle rumour apparently.
If he can find his Bournemouth form be a good option on a free transfer. Didn’t really get games at Everton. https://mobile.twitter.com/WD18Fans/status/1413465932333150214
Jesus we've bought a lot of players today. The stand out is Josh King on a free having been released by Everton
Let's hope he finds his form of 2/3 seasons ago for Bournemouth. Like with Danny Rose probably needs to re-set his career and confidence.
With all these new signings, I think we need to start moving a few of the others on - can't think of any who have been offloaded yet...
