Summer 2023 Transfer Speculation

[Stranded]

Anyway, I think Bouzanis may end up at Wrexham.

Reading have registered their interest in taking Rubin Colwill on loan.

Winger for Cardiff (according to Wikipedia, though people on Twitter also saying midfielder and attacking midfielder - either very versatile or nobody knows his position!)

Yeah saw that. Surprised cardiff would let him out. But they’re a bit of a weird side

Bowen will be playing the Welsh card no doubt

Doesn't appear to be in their plans and in last year of his contract. Loan with a view to a free agent signing next year perhaps?

[Sutekh]

I’d be surprised if someone took on Ejaria being as he’s been injured for a year and wages wouldn’t be cheap

And likewise not sure McIntyre would offer them a lot more than they have and would have to pay a fee

Do think Holmes will move on, strongly suspect he’s played his last game for us. Have a feeling someone will take Carroll - though suppose depends on him - can be arsed to up sticks again? Quite possibly his last season as a player

Fair chance NGW will go I think. Maybe a younger player as well

Pereira, Clarke and Wareham in
No-one out.

Pereria is a definite but as that is just like for like I think that transfer is an "extra" one. Wareham will also happen, Clarke may sign Academy terms only for this season. I think there will be at least one surprise, probably on deadline day. Think we will leave most of our loans for Jan when that will be the best way to strengthen if needed.

Out Bouzanis looks off based on Witcoop this morning, Holmes & NGW will also go. Carroll will either stay or agree a pay off, he won't go to another club as he won't want to travel outside the South East.

Think Carroll is a thoroughly decent player and would like him to stay as him being introduced to games for the last 30 minutes could create panic amongst tiring defenders, however would not stand in his way if another club could offer him regular 90 minutes. Seems to me that Andy is one player not motivated by cash but for the game itself and that can only be a good influence to have around a club and younger players.

Cardiff supporting mate rates this lad and reckons he’s very versatile. Maybe it means there could be some truth in the Ejaria rumour.

IR will be pleased as we’re lacking in midfielders.

Ian would take another 5 midfielders if it meant getting rid of Ejaria

Bingo. What's more we could afford that ratio.

If he can play wide as well and it's one in one out with Ejaria, that's fine. Numbers stay static and we're actually better off financially

Yeah I thought he was going to be the next big thing at Cardiff wasn't he when he broke through? Thought they had some pretty high hopes for him.

I don't know much about him other than that, so don't really know what to think. Are we potentially getting a player with a load of promise that needs to ignite his career somewhere? Or are we getting a player that isn't living up to his potential for a reason.

[Stranded]

Given the recruitment to date, I am very much trusting the process. Colwill may be yet another one from the long list or this may be an opportunity that we and other clubs have just become aware of.

[blythspartan]

Earnshaw has confirmed that the tax bill has been paid and we are after a few more signings.

[blythspartan]

Is it correct in League One that loans aren’t confined to the transfer window?

No not true. He’s corrected that comment now

[WestYorksRoyal]

Colwill not happening. Cardiff manager clear that he's staying for the season. Not too disappointed - no doubt he was just one of many options.

There will literally be dozens of players that we have on multiple lists - we will have expressed interest in most of them. The way out business has been done this summer, we'll only hear about a signing pretty much as its done - look at the last two deals as examples - deal got leaked, both completed within 24 to 48 hours.

Stansfield gone to brum

Building a decent side are Brum.

Sounds like Tyrese Fornah is going to Derby.

Yeah. Would have been ok in our current set up I think but prob his level
