been told by someone who is usually spot on we are paying £400k for darlow. a snip

Sky reporting same fee, very good business that. Hopefully we can move quickly on a 10 and striker now. Could also do with a couple of astute loan signings like Burnely did last year - they had Maatsen at left back on loan from Chelsea and he did well, and is doing well for Chelsea in pre season...

Be interesting to see if we keep Messlier although can`t see him wanting to play second fiddle to Darlow.

Apparently Farke likes Messlier and is open to him staying. There have been zero bids for him so far

Re: ALL NEW 49ERS ERA LEEDS UTD THREAD : Thu Jul 27, 2023 11:24 am  

I think Leeds would definitely sell if a decent offer comes in, and I think Meslier wants to leave, but his stock has fallen dramatically over the last couple of years, so I don't envisage many clubs out there willing to make him first choice, and pay his asking price.

Meslier didnt want to be second choice at a PL team if he moves on, so cant see him sticking about in the Championship, but like Jack says his stock has fallen

Apparently Newcastle valued him at 5mil, so weve don great to get his price down, same with Ampandu who was valued at 12mil.

Imagine Orta would of buckled and offered double the price
