The Egyptian winger we're being linked with looked rhe part against top opposition last night, which will probably mean we've no chance.

Know nothing of the lad, but very impressed with his performance last night against good opposition. basing it purely on that game if that's the type of dynamic winger he is we shouldn't be messing about. get it done.

Thought we shouldn't buy players based on (one) world cup game/ s. ??.
08 Jul 2026 17:53:45
We seldom buy players these days anyway, so ill no lose sleep over it.

Has somebody had a wee go at you deep river bhoy?

One report saying he is valued at 4m as his value as dropped by 6m. After his performances in WC his club will put his price up by 6m.
He looks really dynamic and quick. If he is one we are in for, and it is 4m, it is a no brainer as we have spent more on poorer players.
Will Duran be our only new forward and it will be him Osman and Iheanacho.
What are you guys thoughts on those 3 being our striker force.
If fit Iheanacho can be a quality player, Duran looks the business and Osman has really potential.
I would like a big physical forward to bully the caber tossers in our league. The 6' 5" Norwegian we were linked with is the CS type who could lay it on for Duran or Osman.
{Ed007's Note - Hassan's release clause (all players in Spain & Portugal need them in their contract) was €16m but after Real Oviedo were relegated the clause had a clause that it went down to €10m but that doesn't mean we will have to pay that, all that means is that any club offering €10m can automatically speak to the player - the most any club will need to pay for Hassan is €10m.
The release clauses are usually set a bit high to fend off unwanted interest in the player BUT in the case of Hassan, Villarreal have a sell-on clause that is anywhere between 40-50% supposedly.}

Don't think so?

Thanks Ed for clearing that up, and its a no then. We won't pay that, it is about 9m pounds.
Some sites are saying that we have made an offer, do you think we have made any contact with Oviedo?
{Ed007's Note - It's about £8.5m but again that doesn't mean they will get that. I reckon circa €5/6m and maybe even with a few addons would get the deal over the line.}

Only seen him in that one game against Argentina but if that's anything to go off he'd be a great signing.

If you measure him against Balikwisha then he would be great value.
As for Bowie at 13m, definitely no from me. That is just clickbait imo.
