Kirky's Transfer Rumour Mill Thread 19:47 - May 14 with 115253 views

Since our Premier League survival is now confirmed I thought it was about time that we look positively to the future for those legendary £5 million Jenkins' Specials. Who knows? We may even spend £10 million on individual players. I'll be updating the thread with every transfer rumour I come across. Feel free to read, discuss and so forth.

First entry is the bi-annual "is Bony coming home?" rumour. The Daily Mail reports that City are ready to sell for £15 million with us and the Hammers ready to start negotiations.

I think he means Arias and Bony. Wilfried may be a sticking point on the wage front more than anything. If he doesn't move however that may well be his career finished.

If he actually cared about the rest of his career and knowing the success he had here I'm sure taking a wage cut to join us shouldn't be that hard for him, but then again money wins everytime.

Poll:

Can Montero do it on a rainy Saturday afternoon?

PC has stated he in his post-match Press Conference that he still wishes to add one or two quality players.

Got to be Arias and Bony surely based on the links. Never thought i'd be saying this but it seems like we aren't going to be getting a replacement for Siggy, not a direct one at least.

The 'Brynnie's Long Lost Cock and Balls Memorial' update on,
"Where we are at"...

* = Home grown (Current total = 9)
** = Young enough not to be registered in the 25

Ins
Tammy Abraham (Loan)
Roque Mesa - £11m
Erwin Mulder - Free
Sam Clucas - £12-20m (I'm f*cked if I know...some money and Kingsley)
Wilfried Bony - £12m
Renato Sanches (Loan)

Total = £35-43m in transfer fees and 2 & 1/2 x 1st team squad players wages.

Outs
Keston Davies (Loan - Yeovil)
Connor Roberts (Loan - Middlesboro)
Daniel James (Loan - Shrewsbury)
Jordi Amat (Loan - Real Betis)
Borja Baston (Loan - Malaga)
Bafetimbi Gomis - £2.5m
Marvin Emnes - Free
Gerhard Tremmel - Free
Franck Tabannou - Paid him off
Jack Cork - £8-10m
Modou Barrow - £1.5m
Gylfi Siggurdsson - £45m
Matt Grimes - (Loan to Northampton)
Stephen Kingsley - £3-4m
Fernando Llorente - £15m

Total = £75m-78m in transfer fees and 9 first team squad players wages.

So we are roughly £35m up in transfer fees and are paying 7/8 fewer players Premier League wages.

That's improved the bench already.
