championship transfers

[Rjk]

unsurprisingly it has been a very quiet transfer window (so far)

here's the list of business done so far:

Fulham, west brom and Bournemouth unsurprisingly look strong.

Millwall have had a pretty good window as well,

Harry Wilson’s fee is about 70% if all the expenditure by Championship clubs.

It’s been a long time since I have been so underwhelmed about the start of a new season.

Re: championship transfers

I expect there’ll be a few last minute spectaculars for all that.

Gone for free.

also George Saville gone back to Milwall- Middlesbrough paid £8m a few years ago.

I bet. not a great summer for reading, considering who you've sold and long term injuries and haven't brought anyone in.

Didn't notice that one.

The list of out players doesn’t include Sone Aluko or a very highly rated youngster Thierry Nevers who has gone to West Ham. We currently have 14 fit players with only three other senior players two of whom are injured and one in Marc McNulty who has no future at the club. Josh Laurent and George Puscas being linked with moves too
We are in a worse state than Derby from what I can see.

Re: championship transfers

I could have sworn I read that Middlesbrough had signed some Argentinian (or South American at least) for about £ 7 million?

Unfair on Warnock, I feel! They made it clear they didn't want to stay and Boro cutting their cloth accordingly. Fletcher, Saville and Assombalonga worth nowhere near what they paid for them.

Derby are almost certain to finish bottom but can see Reading being awfully close. Their one saving grace they have some really good (injury prone) players, while Derby are just terrible.

Not official... yet. Apparently he is in Middlesbrough now. Martin Payero I think he's called.

matin payero - just waiting for it to be made official. £6m
played in the Olympics for Argentina

seems like a bit of a coup.

I can't imagine a less Warnock seeming transfer.
a 22 year old playmaker from South America.
in 2 years time when he gets his debut it'll be interesting to see how he does.
