The Summer 2020 Transfer Window Now Closed: Zungu signs on loan with option to buy

I wouldn't sell Kent simply because...who ya gonna replace him with? Barker? Jones?

Unless Leeds go full retard and offer something like 17M...keep the little guy.

SG: Ryan (Kent) is a player we admire very much here and we have seen him develop. He is progressing very quickly and is a player we want to keep hold off. We very quickly rejected an opening bid that was nowhere near his valuation.

 

So 10m is not enough ...

I saw a tweet saying the bid was £8.5m with add-ons.  Agree thats not enough.

Certainly started well this year and was hitting form end of last season 

Haven't seen much credit given to the lad for starting the season with a couple of goals.... that all seems to get swept under the rug when it suits.

BTW, aside from Benteke, the name Harry WIlson also popped up yesterday. Given what they raked in for Solanke (who done next to nothing after his transfer), the fee mentioned was 20m. Which would probably even be value for money. Should we see the back of Morelos and even Kent, well ...

 

Just as food for thought.

 

I saw Kent (just before his transfer) and Wilson together at the start of last season in a friendly for Liverpool and they were different class. Wilson was doing well on loan last season and Liverpool said that they'd sell him, no more loans. One also wonders whether SG can convince Klopp of a loan for Rhian Brewster for our right flank ...

Rhian Brewster isnt a right winger - he is a centre forward.  That is where he played for Swansea all season.  Lad may well go on and have a very good career but any time I saw him play for Swansea I was left unimpressed.

 

Harry Wilson is another matter - that boy will have a very good career IMHO.  Quality player - am a little surprised that Klopp would let him leave - also surprised that Howe didnt give him more game time at Bournemouth as they were screaming for creativity.  We have NO chance of getting him though unless it was a loan - if they are selling him he will be inundated with offers.

 

Benteke ?  No thanks

One thing that seems to have been forgotten in all the debate around how much we should sell Ryan Kent for is our recruitment department.... when we knew we were paying £6.5 million for him there were howls of derision from many within our support.  However, even at an opening gambit of £8.5 million that represents a £2 million uplift in just a season, for a player who the support felt wasnt worth the initial purchase price.

 

And when you look at some of the other signings recently too, one has to conclude that our recruitment department these days seems to be in much safer hands.

It also ignores the SG stated Kent is a huge player for us and not for sale (unless Leeds meet our valuation).

Looks like the latest non-story. Moving swiftly along
