Transfer: Winter Transfer Thread

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Better than Fati?

Hard to compare when their so young and so different but he has the potential to be more important.

Mark McKenzie heading to Genk. @Savi

Don’t watch Genk at all. How’s their CB situation? McKenzie plays on the left side. He is adequate in distributing the ball and good defensively. Mainly relies on his speed/strength defensively.

I think that’s mostly been out of necessity. He can play RCB.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Flamboyant, excellent passer, can unlock deep holding defensive lines with accurate through balls. On defense he carries his weight surprisingly well. Presses the opponent and has a bit of an edge to his game. Every time he's played he impresses everyone in Barcelona is perplexed by the situation.

You forgot his most valuable skill. He was accused of leaking the coach’s lineup to the press after the coach told him he wasn’t likely to play very much.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Koeman just hates him for some reason. The kid needs to get out and get playing time elsewhere away from that moronic manager.

I also wouldn’t like a player I thought cared more about himself than the team.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Reynolds to Juventus for a little over 10M. He’ll be loaned out in January because Juventus has no EU slots left for this season.

LOL if this was true he would've left.

He could have been a star in Belgium but nooo

Now he'll just end up another one of those 345687126 loanees Juve have on payroll but never make it to the first team and eventually be sold to (insert random second division club)

Cagliari is the name I’ve seen for loan.

Not really. We have absolutely no depth on rb. We had to convert Cuadrado to a RB and he's 32/33. He has a better chance at making the than other players.

I think it's a risky amount of money for a player whose still not really much of a defender. It's gambling on his size/speed/dribbling ability, and hoping he can learn to defend adequately. I don't think Brugge missed out that much on this transfer, but I also think he's meant as a first team option at Juventus. I think the loan was only supposed to be for this season due to their lack of EU spots right now, and then he'll join Juve. Doesn't mean he'll ever do well at Juve, but I don't think he's being bought to be part of a loan army. I guess we'll see though.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Cagliari is the name I’ve seen for loan.

I read that, but I also read that he'll have some say where, and it might not be them. Cagliari wouldn't be good. They already have a starting RB whose on a loan with an option to buy, and their RB is playing well. Reynolds would barely play coming in at midseason,.

 

[Vasilevskiy]

Better than Fati?

No.
But yeah one gets the Thiago vibes watching all this situation develop.

Didn't you lot have a player named Cancelo who could've played that position?

 

[Savi]

Still not official according to Romano

 

[Juve]

Yes.......

 

[Gecklund]

What even is this list of names? not that it’s a bad list but Kabak can’t fill the same role as the others and White potentially could but might not be quite there yet. Give me Kounde or Torres! Soyuncu will cost more than Maguire otherwise I’d want him.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

I think there's Kounde and the rest tbh.

 

[Gecklund]

I think there's Kounde and the rest tbh.

I think Kounde is definitely the top and then a gap and Soyuncu/Torres next and then White and another gap and Kabak.

 

[Savant]

What even is this list of names? .

I honestly just think they combined the same names that have been linked to every other team.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Still not official according to Romano

This guy is very close to the player. He’s saying it’s done. He would know.

 

[Gecklund]

This guy is very close to the player. He’s saying it’s done. He would know.

Yeah all the American journalists are saying it’s done.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Both parties want to extend. Koeman has done all he can to f*** this kids future up but his future is still at Barca for the time being. I think out lasts Koeman.

[phisherman]

Who?

 

[cgf]

Who?

Don't think if I've seen Antov, but Bulgaria has started to produce some interesting talents. Not saying they have a golden generation or anything, but their youth teams have surprised me on a few occasions & I know that german clubs have been to Bulgaria in recent years to scout Kraev & Ivanov...Kraev having since transferred to Midtjylland & Ivanov set to join the MLS this window.

Filip Krastev is another interesting Bulgarian kid.
