Frankie 8,580 Posted June 1, 2022 Author Share Posted June 1, 2022 Every signing comes with risk and, on the face of it, Itten had potential, but the move didn't work out so good news we've managed to move him on. Not entirely sure what we paid (~£2-3m?) but it demonstrates the difficult in finding quality at what remains a decent outlay for us. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sutton_blows_goats 5,348 Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 Looked like a sensible signing at the time. Young player off the back of a good season, plenty of potential. Didn't work out and we all move on. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RANGERRAB 3,680 Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 Now very short in numbers up front. Presume GvB has one or two in mind 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rousseau 10,663 Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 We were short up front with Itten, so I see the signing of strikers/forwards as being a priority this window. That's a good move for Itten. YB are a big side in Switzerland; they're expected to win trophies and push on in Europe. Like I've said elsewhere, that's a similar level to ourselves, give or take. It suggests that Itten had the calibre, but his style just hasn't suited us. It happens, quite often. I wish him well. He tried. Farewell, Ced the Ted! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tannochsidebear 2,420 Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 One down, plenty to go. Shame for Itten, I thought there was a player there, but a wee bit unlucky not to get a run when he was in form to see if he could compliment Alfie but probably better he moves on. If we have recouped our money on him (which we definitely should have or someone isnt doing their job properly) then we can reinvest it in someone that may fit in better. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
