Subscriber nudge+ 15,325 Posted August 6, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted August 6, 2021 26 minutes ago, Devil-Dick Willie said: We are now a giant in a land of minews. We need to use our name and the promise to go back to the Bundesliga to attract players. Junuzovic cost dirt. Surely there is talent to be pilfered from Sweden and Austria? Sure. Austria, Switzerland, Scandinavian, Balkan countries and the likes. I agree with you there. But I would say that it's still not easy to find players there who fit into our preferred profile (young, with enough potential to develop in the future, but also good enough already to help us instantly) and then convince their clubs to sell them for peanuts. Just seeing how negotiations over Kastrati went with Zagreb, it looks like we're not in a position to be offering more than ~2 million Euro for a player.

I hope that selling them + Jojo & Osako means we can reinvest at least 6-8 million into the squad, but I honestly doubt it. Our financial situation is precarious.

A bit hard to sign quality players with no money available He did create the problem by signing terrible players for too much money and not having quality players to sell. I really worry if we on counting on Füllkrug to be our striker this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber nudge+ 15,325 Posted August 10, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted August 10, 2021 @Devil-Dick Willie apparently the latest offer is 1.8m transfer fee + additional clauses/bonuses bringing it to a total of 2.5m. Also, we're being linked with Ducksch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gradually Bremen's squad becomes critically thin. At least the goalkeeper position is covered - Pavlenka (in new contract talks), Zetterer, dos Santos Haesler and Plogmann. I feel sorry for Kapino, though. A good keeper, waited for his chance, but just wasted years at Bremen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ortega is probably expected to leave, if not this then next summer? Either way, it's probably better to be a #2 goalkeeper in a 1. Bundesliga club than #3 in a 2.

Such an odd market if one of our genuine few high quality players (even though I didn't rate him as highly as others) leaves for 5.5 mil, but Josh Fucking Sargent goes for 10.

Gutted. I would have loved for Augsburg to find some way to make this work. Absolutely love him. Bremen went to the bank with Sargent, I think Norwich will lose money on that deal.
