The January 2026 Transfer Window Thread

[Smurph]

Honestly the bloke is a crank, he always pops up on my feed. He is NEVER happy and NEVER attends any games.

Some people are only happy when they're moaning.

Odd behavior which is abundant on the match day thread, loads moaning, hardly attend games and nowhere to be seen when we're winning.

Honestly don't understand why they bother and what real enjoyment they get from it.

Can we keep this to a transfer thread please instead of moaning?

Surprised Hellberg hasn’t gone in for Walta

Oh he probably will, some other clubs with more ambition, a better city centre and an airport closer to London or Birmingham will get him.

 

[Ringwood]

Honestly wouldn’t be surprised if Vip or Galbraith get sold, confident we’ve got a back up plan if so.

Would be madness to sell in this window

Several bids ???

If we don't have Mike Ehrmantraut announcing the signing I will be livid.

I see what you did there

This one to me does seem ripe for a hijack now Romano has announced a deal is close. Especially as it was only yesterday there was reported interest from Italy etc

That would be the worry, although unlike Jacob Wright last year, we’ve been linked to Walta for a while. He must know just how much we want him and hopefully Matos has helped to sell the project to him. We can only cross our fingers.

And the fact he personally name dropped us back in that interview in November as well.

Think I saw it written down that he’s scored 16 goals in 30 games from midfield!

He's also very very good at defensive actions in the attacking half (I.e chasing down and pressing) which will
Suit us perfectly. Looks to be a helluva signing if it comes off

Oh, I didn’t know that! Could be a cracking signing on paper!
Let’s get him in the door first before I start getting excited.

Whose position does he take in our first 11?

Looks great from those YouTube highlights. Looks a mix of Galbraith & Widell

I still think we should be pushing for a right back to get Galbraith in the 8/10 position, but perhaps this signing would suggest we are looking to keep Galbraith at RB for the foreseeable?

Inoussa being out makes it likely Widdell will share the left with Eom, so frees up his role. Would be surprised if Walta started early though, season in Sweden has been finished since November so he's not match fit

 

[magicdaps10]

The Walta signing would then push Widell and/or Yalcouye out to cover the wing position.
