Non-Rangers Winter transfer thread 22/23

[BrooklynBlue]

I imagine they believe the league is done and they’ve got enough to win one of the cups, hence happy to refresh the squad now.

The LC Final is huge in terms of momentum. We really need to win it.

 

[Nescafe_loyal]

Seems to be something weird going on there

The summer would be plenty time to let the Croatian go?

Could be anything especially being them lot.

A Dog breath runs them dry thats wy hes getting players from japan etc as they are athletes more than footballers.

B because hes an arsehole

C theyve realised how much theyve spent

D liewell

E other...

I get what you're saying, and mostly agree, but it's only 9 points. All signs point to them winning it quite comfortably, but it's not sewn up like it was for us a few seasons ago. Just seems a bit of a risk.

 

[DKRangers]

Yeah quite, it's strange eh, it doesn't get highlighted at all. They'll be hoping that the new right back and 2 Japanese lads work out. Because otherwise that's two stinking windows (in terms of new faces) in a row. Which given the spend, is mental.

Obviously some players could emerge at a later date, but aye. If we'd spent that much and barely used those players, the wider Scottish football community would be giving us pelters.

I suppose the difference is they can probably afford a few flops.

When we spend £8m and all we get is Ridvan and Matondo then it doesn't look great.

I agree. But they’ve always been arrogant and dismissive, even moreso under their current manager.

As you’ve noted, their transfer dealings aren’t the greatest & their European performances abject, yet it’s seldom commented on.

I honestly don't think they can afford to fill a squad up with players who don't appear to be performing. A few poor windows can reverse the gap in the end. As we found out to our detriment.

I should really caveat by saying, I don't think they're in crisis. I just think it's funny they get lauded for their business on here and in the wider discourse of Scottish football.

 

[DJ Blue]

Chelsea sign PSV lad - Noni Medueke - Seven and a Half year deal.

 

[Now and forever]

£7.5m up front and add ons that could take it to £10m for their Croatian full back.

 

[Gaz9]

They're not even getting half of that considering the offer they accepted from Monza

 

[SuperAllyWATP]

By the sounds of it, Juranovic was just desperate to get out of their, seemed quite happy to go to any club that wanted him

 

[Now and forever]

According to Sky thats the deal.

 

[WATP1979]

According to Peter thats the deal.

Fixed that for you mate

 

[Gaz9]

According to Sky thats the deal.

€6.2m was the package last week

 

[Now and forever]

€6.2m was the package last week

Offered or accepted?

 

[Diego Maradona]

Decent buy for that sort of cash.

Glad he's leaving the filth tbh

 

[ICA_86]

Random but I read the other day Mudryk's top running speed is only 1kph slower than Usain Bolt's top speed.

Also read that he’d been promoted from Shakhtar’s B team twice in the last two years and got sent back straight away.

I’m not totally convinced as yet, mentally challenged-destroying aside.

 

[ICA_86]

£7.5m up front and add ons that could take it to £10m for their Croatian full back.

No chance.

 

[Gaz9]

Offered or accepted?

Accepted. He was in Italy but couldn't agree terms with Monza.

 

[Shawlands_Bluenose]

They’ve made a bit of an arse of selling Juranovic for me. Signed his replacement first so everyone and their dog knew they needed to sell Juranovic during this window which has probably reduced the fee they could have potentially got

 

[WATP1979]

Accepted. He was in Italy but couldn't agree terms with Monza.

There’s no way another club are now paying twice what was accepted from Monza

 

[Liviger1984]

Where are union Berlin getting the 50 muulyin from?

 

[RFC56]

That Canadian they signed to replace juranovic looked a downgrade compared to him tbh.

 

[ICA_86]

Anyone thinking Union are ready to offer £7m up front after they accepted a loan to buy from Monza is on a different planet.

I’m sure it’ll go down as ‘undisclosed’.

 

[bkerr72]

According to Sky thats the deal.

More likely what Anthony Joseph has been told to put out!

 

[ICA_86]

Correct.

 

[Family bam]

Anthony knows, like Lawwell, the mutants will believe anything they tell them.

A load of utter shite.

 

[JeffreySpauIding]

Yes, Union Berlin are smashing their transfer record for a 28 year old right back.

 

[Thor]

Anthony Joseph is absolute poison and another only too happy to spread lies and propaganda for the filth. Hopefully at some point with these players unhappy and wanting to leave it’ll actually manifest into them dropping points.

 

[ronadamus_prime]

Yes, Union Berlin are smashing their transfer record for a 28 year old right back.

Was just about to post this. They don't historically spend a lot and when they do, it's usually on players they think they can sell on again in a few seasons. Would be a big departure for them.

Whatever Romano reports the fee as, you can bank on it being right.

Good price for the scum

 

[DKRangers]

Good price for the scum

Not when they were flogging him for £25m to Barca or Chelsea a month ago.

Also, why had they accepted a loan deal until the end of the season from Monza then a £7m buy option, only for Union Berlin to come in and pay more?

 

[HMS.Temple.Garden]

 

[Macky]

Good price for the scum

If that is actually the true figure then it is Unions record transfer fee. Can’t see it myself.

Their highest was €9m on Amonoyi who they then sold onto Forest for €20m. I just can’t see them spending their highest ever transfer fee on someone they won’t make any money on.

 

[prenzlauerbear]

Union just lost Ryerson to BVB for a similar fee, plus he's a year older. Wouldn't be surprised me if they paid there or there abouts with additional clauses should they make the Champions League.

German media is aggregating the Sky Sports story. Nothing original from their side.

 

[SuperGers07]

More likely what Anthony Joseph has been told to put out!

Yeah it’s bollocks. Has to be. Pretty sure Union Berlin record fee is like £8m quid total?

Just face saving from that lot

 

[prenzlauerbear]

Union's record fee is irrelevant, really.

 

[Dj12872]

I suppose the difference is they can probably afford a few flops.

When we spend £8m and all we get is Ridvan and Matondo then it doesn't look great.

That ridvan being written off then?

 

[Dj12872]

Good price for the scum

Worth “up to”

Could be 2.5 million the now with all sorts of add ons that may or may not be achievable

 

[bkerr72]

Yeah it’s bollocks. Has to be. Pretty sure Union Berlin record fee is like £8m quid total?

Just face saving from that lot

Of course it is he's their teaboy at SKY and does what he's told. Needs to save his face after the crap with Barcelona and Premier league clubs all interested in Juranovic prior to the Monza deal.

They just sold a striker for big money and also their right back for £5m.

 

[CooperSF]

Just over £7m

[Boab4]

No it’s not, @SuperGers07 says it’s less

 

[SuperGers07]

Probably will be in fairness. Not in keeping with their previous deals at a looking back.

 

[GingerbreadGirl]

Just over £7m

I look forward to pages and pages of posters telling us how wonderful celtic are at doing business

 

[ferguson]

QPR reject £3m offer from Millwall for Dykes.

 

[King Richard Gough]

I look forward to pages and pages of posters telling us how wonderful celtic are at doing business

Basically £7m guaranteed.

When you factor in what they paid minus any potential sell on to Legia I wouldn’t say this is their best piece of business.

Especially if early impressions prove correct that his replacement is inferior.

Might just be because it's Brighton and EPL money but just shows when people are saying in the transfer thread should sign players from Scandinavia its not cheap as it was.
