Transfer News, Gossip & Speculation Transfer Rumours Etc part 2.....2024/25

Transfer news
At 27 (28 in May) he has likely peaked.

To give you some context Noor has just turned 28, Bridge was 28 going into this season, Cav is 29. These were our key players a year or two ago and now everyone wants them gone as they’ve dropped off. I’d be betting that Linney won’t get as many goals next season.

Let’s instead find the player about to breakout and have their career year.

Exactly. Parillon proves that there are players out there.
 
Was told yesterday that Altrincham have already turned down a £200k bid from Fleetwood for Linney, puts him firmly out of our reach. Shame, thought he was great.

Absolutely spot on to be fair. And in all honesty, signing Linney doesn’t feel like COSU’s style. I feel like we’re more about finding the next Linney rather than paying an extortionate amount for the current one.

Alty signed Linney from FC United of Manchester, for what was probably a modest fee. I feel like our focus should be on paying £30k for promising players with re-sale value, and we seem to be set up pretty well scouting wise to do that. Not dropping £300k on players we’re unlikely to get any return on.
 
Keep Bonne he is our best striker , Kendall is a work in progress, Preseason i had high hopes for Walker until that injury curtailed his form and fitness , still have high hopes for him,undecided on Hopper but he has a contract i believe for another season , let Waldron go ,if we after a proven goalscorer its going to cost COSU a lot off money therefore i hope they are scowering the lower divisions for a young up and comer or scouting young ones who will be released from clubs higher up Championship or Premiership with potential tobe that person, Off season going to be very interesting when it comes to signing new players, my thoughts are we need 5 new signings minimum 1 or 2 CDs a LWB .a striker and a midfield general and leader
