20/21 Transfer thread.

Ceballos has rejoined Arsenal on loan. Maybe not a great fpl asset but he was an important player for them especially after Arteta took over and helps their other fpl assets i feel

*edit also a good opportunity for someone to name their team Dani Onion Rings (some people will get this)

Wolves are looking into signing Marcal from Lyon, a left back. This would impact the minutes for Vinagre.

Newcastle have agreed a fee for Callum Wilson so looks like he'll be back to troll us for another season.

Wolves have also broken their transfer record to sign a Portuguese striker I've never heard of. Another one for the Mendes collection

He’s a Football Manager future best in the world type.

I don’t think he’s worth consideration for obvious reasons, but I think he might cut other Wolves attackers’ value.

They will want to give him minutes and I think the bulk of those might be at the point where games have already been won. Jimenez could be one to suffer.

So you're saying he's effectively a Vulture Points signing???!!!?? :-)

I would think so. They didn’t sign this guy for that price to give him no minutes at all. Unless he goes on loan, he would carry that worry for me.

What you think would be his entry point in the game - 7.0 be fair?

Has to be 6.5 max in a Bruce team.

Leicester are signing Castagne from Atalanta. Seems like a good player, mainly a right-back, but is incredibly versatile, can also play in a back three as a centre-back or at left back. Hopefully he comes in at 4.5.

Castagne in @ 5.5, thats disappointing. Hopefully he will play CB or LB and Justin will still start at RB, Pereira will presumably go straight in at RB when he returns so probably doesn't make sense for Rogers to put Castange there for a few weeks as they have cover there already but are short on the other side of defense.

This is confirmed now.

Marcal will play left centre back in the back 3.

Saiss is the one losing his place.

Will Marcal even start at all? He’s a 2 million signing who wasn’t a regular at Lyon. Squad depth maybe?

Ah here.....

Callum Wilson has joined Newcastle

Wilson is honestly starting to tempt me, depending on his price. Fraser looks set to sign too. With Fraser/ASM/Almiron as a supporting cast, you'd expect him to bag a few goals

Vinagre hasn't been mentioned on Sky's transfer centre feed. Could just be a case of some scouts throwing his name around because Wolves signed Marcal. Marcal looks like more of a squad player though, like mentioned, and Wolves are still pretty thin on wide defensive players, so I don't think we need to panic just yet.

5 more days to suss out the truth of it

Ampadu going on loan to Sheff United.

He is not in the game yet as far as I can see, so there is a chance to raise his price now, and also change his position. I think I remember him being a defender the last time around, but could play midfield for Sheffield United.

A penny more than 6.5m and I’ll have zero interest.

I think 6.5m is the sweet point with Wilson and would be somewhat tempting. Not sure how much stock you can put into it and even if he's fit to be thrown in but the fact it's West Ham 1st up would be a +. His record against them is pretty decent.

It's been a long time though since a Newcastle striker turned up any trees. I guess Perez a couple of years ago did alright but think he was a good bit cheaper.

Will be interesting to see how Newcastle do shape up next year as they have brought in some more depth albeit them coming off pretty shocking seasons

Looks like Wolves are in for Alex Telles. 11 goals and 8 assists from left back last season though 8 were pens. Would be a top signing.

He's meant to be a very good set piece taker, a real danger from them. I remember this from a podcast before one of the knockout ties against Liverpool, in which Porto went on to score from an Alex Telles corner.

bang on 6.5m to tempt you

with the pace in the Newcastle team, and Fraser moving there as well - he may well be worth a punt - it's really him, Antonia and Mitrovic at that price bracket

I just read Callum Robinson is having a medical with West Brom today, I think that could be a pretty significant transfer. It would make Robinson a viable option as a 5.5 striker, good for anyone not convinced with the 6 options and wants to save 0.5. He was there for a while last season so the manager obviously wants to use him and he could slot straight in.

Moving Robinson on could also allow SheffU step up their chase on Brewster who they are interested in. Sky saying up to six Premier League clubs have expressed an interest in Brewster on loan and Liverpool might now consider selling. If they (or anyone else) got Brewster before the deadline, that would be a huge deal for all FPL players.

Benteke 2.0 imo

Never seen anything from him to impress me, happy to be proved wrong though

Benteke and Wickham both injured, so he should start most games. I think he had a decent return for teams he played for except for Chelsea.
