Herrington worth almost 5m and Circati worth 13m. Could be an interesting window.

[JS96]

Bundesliga 2 starts in 4 weeks so these moves and returning will go pretty quickly.

Time for a well earned holiday then back at it.

Metcalfe might move on. The world cup performance definitely got attention.

 

[Charlie]

Luka Smyth rumored to have interest from Maritimo in Portugal's top flight. He has 7 goals in 10 starts at VPS in Finland.

That's Tete's old Finnish club before he made the Livingston move.

If he goes there should he be in consideration for the Socceroos?

Paul Okon-Engstler is also rumoured to FC Groningen

 

[Bbouy]

Fiorentina are still after Volpato. I definitely think he should continue trying to leave Sassuolo.

Probably, doesn't seem likely he will get past Berardi at this stage.

 

[Bbouy]

Probably, doesn't seem likely he will get past Berardi at this stage.

He said he's been trying to get a loan move for a while out of Sassuolo but they won't let him.

 

[Cunningstunt]

He said he's been trying to get a loan move for a while out of Sassuolo but they won't let him.

Maybe Sassuolo try to cash in Berardi if they trust Volpato to fill that gap. It is a big couple of years for him. As good as he is, you would think there is more potential there given his age. Leaving for a month for the AC won't help his chances...

Yeah, its been mentioned here before but I would not be surprised to see Volpato turn down an Asian Cup to focus on his club football. This is just conjecture, but it wouldn't go down well with fans, 1 step forward, 2 steps back. Might be a different story, if he's solidified himself at Fiorentina and is scoring for fun, then yes, going to the Asian Cup will massively benefit his world profile and a big Asian Cup could prove vital for an even bigger move. I think in the end, he should leave Sassuolo and really try and get a starting role somewhere else pretty quickly.

I predict he'll easily be our best player heading into 2030 World Cup. A starting role in the Serie A will do wonders for his development.

Yeah it's easy to talk about how much it means at the WC. It's much harder to be a dream come true when it means missing half the season and losing your starting place or having to travel 20 hours and playing Bangladesh on a cow paddock

I love that we’ve got a growing number of coaches to follow too, at least 9 head coaches by my count. I think Corica will be our only head coach in Japan, is that right?
