Gueye only needs two words of English… “John Bull”

This will be similar to the McFadzean deal, I’m sure of it. Agreed a deal more than a month ago and is only just going through. I bet Waggott went back on the deal and offered reduced terms. McFadzean is closer to the end of his career and turned down other clubs for Rovers. McFadzean doesn’t really have any other options so will have agreed a reduced deal IMO.

Just a guess, but if they did want Gueye they would need to shift a few of their foreign signings. They have 7 forwards from outside the UK, so at least four of them will make up the allotted ESC spots. Gally is classed as home-grown so wouldn’t need to pass any ESC checks. Gueye would fit into the ESC category, so Rovers can bring him in with a spot left over for Yuki?

£1.5m is good business for Gallagher coming towards the end of his contract. Rumours he’s on £15k a week and I don’t feel his performances have justified being our highest earner.

Zaragoza fans have been pretty ruthless about Gueye on X. 23 games, 0 goals for Zaragoza. Signed for RWD Molenbeek the following season and scored 11 goals in 35 games. 6’5 so he’s a target man and will probably negate the Gally outgoing.

I’m more of a Pringles man myself.

Will this season be worse than 2016/2017 under Coyle?

Dominating possession but not doing a lot with it.

I’m guessing this was before his flight over to England 🤷🏻‍♂️

The only danger to this deal is our own incompetence.

So with Yuki signing on a free that’s means we still have £7m left in the budget? 😅

The ITK wars continue…

Elliott Jackson reported that the fee was well below the original reported figure online. I know he’s gets some stick on here, but seems he was right on this one 😀

30m Yen = £152k

Rangers looking at Dykes, so hopefully he signs for them.

He’s similar to Szmodics, plays behind the striker. But can fill in at striker if needed. Last few games for Hiroshima he’s played in the ‘10’ role behind a striker.

I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that Paul posted the shirts. Quite a few Rovers ‘influencers’ have posted them yesterday, so they’ve been hard to avoid. I even considered purchasing one, but the time between ordering and delivery is similar to ordering products from a certain Chinese website, so I decided against it. Surely they’d have to let their followers know it’s a paid advertisement?

Similar to Boyomo, left our academy in 2021 and signed for Albacete. They sold him in July 2023 for €1.3m to Valladolid.
