PieFacE Posted June 16, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted June 16, 2023 Hope this isn't going to be another window similar to Jan where we couldn't get our main targets over the line so end up not signing anyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustibrooks Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 I can see him staying at Bilbao the same way his brother has done, his brother was in the same situation but rejected Arsenal I think to stay at Bilbao and has never been linked with a move away since really. But like @Indigosaid getting Bilbao’s best players is a tall order, tbh anyone from the Basque region would be quite difficult. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any other team I wouldn't care but I dont like us trying to sign from Athletic They do pay players higher wages so also why hard to take them 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delphinho123 Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Sounds like this one is done. I'm not massively shocked or saddened by it. Him and Asensio both rejecting us is a bit of a blow though. I wonder who we'll move onto next! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKP90 Posted June 16, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted June 16, 2023 We seem to be struggling this summer. We'll do well to kick on at this rate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rustibrooks Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 We are likely to already to be working on our next targets, most of these things get relayed to us a week or so later. For all we know we maybe finalising something for another target Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 The lad is talented but I don't think at this moment he'd be a game changer for us. Bryan Gil had a fantastic season at Eibar, Spurs signed him and he's spent most of his time being loaned back to Spain and Williams is similar age. Bailey was mid 20s when we signed him and proven in major league and europe and yet for various reasons he's been no more than average so wide forwards can be hit and miss. We need to get cracking and sign two of them in the next month though, wouldn't shock me if someone like Chukuweze comes more onto the radar. Think we'll also step up Harvey Barnes interest just to get someone in for pre season who can hit the ground running. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
