Ok, looking forward to 2020/2021, who are our realistic targets coming in? |  | | |  |

I've read he's hoping to get Brewster and Gallacher back for a full season. Also that we've approached Grant Hall whose contact at QPR has run out.
Besides them it's difficult to say but, looking at the way Solskjaer has been picking his ream, maybe a cheeky loan bid for Dan James 
It's hard to call because of the rumours of Rodon leaving (though Citeh have bought Nathan Ake) and we if a bid is made for Ayew we'll probably sell. Tough to know who we'll need. | |

I honestly can’t see any PL team moving for Rodon at the moment. Not because he’s not good enough but he’s had a few injuries. |  |

Loans and freebies , cant see fans being allowed back for a while, on mass anyway, so finances will be tight, or non existent with us! |  | | |

Cooper’s interview published today said it would be loans and/or free transfers only | | | |

You need to grasp that no money or very little will be spent by these owners, so lets put the silly talk to bed. | | | |

From what I can see he’s contracted to Stoke until 2022. He’s rumoured to be on around 50k per week, it’s never going to happen.
Unless one of the youngsters gets sold for decent cash, I reckon Ayew will either be sold on or allowed to leave on a free transfer. If rumours of his reported £80k per week are right, that will account for 25% of the final years parachute payment. Covid19 will have put a dent in the cash flow and they will need cash to keep the ship afloat. [Post edited 31 Jul 2020 18:30]

Apparently close to signing a permanent transfer, I remember someone mentioning a Welsh defender from Carlisle coming here? Could be him on a freebie. | |

Last year of parachute payments next year.
From memory we have about £17m from that.
Year after zip.
I think thats when the 🇺🇸 owners get out of town.
So we need to find £17m cuts, or sell Rodon and carry on for next 12 months.
I can only see more loan signings.
In fairness they have (mostly) been good to watch. |  |

Who do you see taking over from the majority shareholders?
Anyone looking to buy the club would want all the shares?
Do you think anyone buying the club will pump £millions in without looking to recoup their investments?
Do you think new majority shareholders would be any better?
My answers would be
no one
almost certainly
no
no |  |

I don't money will be spent by the majority of clubs in the current situation. Turnover for clubs outside the Premier League will be virtually nil until supporters are let back in. No tickets, no hospitality, no catering, and practically no merchandise. This is going to be one window where most clubs will not be prepared to commit to anything financially, it will be wait until Christmas and review the situation. |  | | |

Shifting Ayew is vital imo. We simply have to get rid somehow. Harsh because he’s given so much and could have done a Jack Rodwell and just sat on his arse for three years but his wages are crippling us. If that figure of 80,000 is anywhere near true we could probably bring in five or six top quality championship players at least for half of that and still be better off. | |

We'd have been totally screwed without him this season!
Have to get the balance between cost and value. | |

If we can afford to keep him on again then hopefully he will stay, could be a win win for him as he is out of contract next summer and get a big sign on fee.
Seen him linked to PSG earlier for 5M, don't know how true that is. | |

I dont know who else would pay him 80k a week, so I can see him seeing his contract out and as you say getting a decent signing on bonus in what will probably be his last decent move and good wages. Unless the middle East/china or USA come knocking I can see him being a swan next year. Just hope we get the players around him to make us a threat | | | |

So virtually the same since the sellout barstewards took the millions so we could “move to the next level” under the Yank venture capitalists, who have not invested a cent of their own money in to the club, and just siphoned off the out going transfer fees and parachute money.
You get what you deserve with the “trust” 😂😂😂 turning a blind eye and allowing the sellouts to walk away with the millions whilst the club dies. |  |

Alan Nixon claimed Leicester want Andre Ayew from us, and the transfer fee would be put back into the spending money. I've also seen Daniel Ayala being linked, but he looks Birmingham bound with Karanka. |  | | |

Ayew has gone from being a 'must get off the payroll' (Birch and Perlman March 2019) to 'must try to keep' August 2020.
15 league goals and 7 assists as a second centre forward would cost a fortune to replace.
The financial balance will be quite simply - what can we get/save v what will it cost to replace.
Let's be honest, without him this season we would have struggled, not just his goal involvement but his industry and leadership was excellent. | |

Of course he’s been fantastic but that sort of salary in the championship is not sustainable. | |
