Interestingly, we don’t seem to be linked to many players recently. I hope ( perhaps falsely) it means we are making progress with a number of potential signings and managing to keep things under the radar. Most unBoro like, I know! All our targets are at the Euros and the Copa America and in the best teams, we won't be able to negotiate with them until they win those competitions, basically. At least they'll get work permits though! 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Given that quite a few well-publicised links and potential signings have led nowhere, I'm now thinking that we'll end up with a bunch of lower league journeymen players being unveiled close to, or on deadline day. Possibly a couple of overseas players from clubs we've never heard of...like Akademisk Boldklub... 🤷♂️ 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Brunners 7,952 Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 If he's available, I'd be asking about Yates price because he was amazing in the playoff final, looked like exactly what we want. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
