Blackburn Rovers' transfer window so far; Sidnei Tavares Dion De Neve Ryan Alebiosu Sean McLoughlin Hull City's transfer window so far; Gustavo Puerta Reda Laalaoui Semi Ajayi Akin Famewo Dillon Phillips Joel Ndala (Loan) Brandon Williams (On trial) John Lundstram (Soon) Hull City, who are under a 3-window embargo, have so far had a significantly better window than us... just let that sink in.

10 days till the season starts and we're still gonna have Ryan fucking Hedges starting on the right-wing... Jesus wept.

Probably! Must be class supporting a Club that reinvests the money from player sales

Think 4 more does it personally; RW (Perm) - Someone quick and tricky. A left-footer who can cut in would be my preference. CAM (Perm) - Moussa Baradji still in the balance, suppose there will always be concerns over this injury. Personally hope we still pursue him though, looks good. CB (Loan) - A young PL loan would work here, maybe that Fredricson from United? ST (Loan) - Someone who can play anywhere across the front line is ideal, would love Jayden Danns. Anything else after that is a bonus for me. Of course there's a huge caveat in relation to keeping our current key players, anyone sold will need to be adequately replaced on top of the above.

That's a fair shout, could see it!

Today i'm going with; - Confirmation of Carter's injury. - Baradji deal off. - Cryptic link from a foreign journo.

The amount of money they're making and saving at the expense of the squad is insane... even managed to get £750k for our last gaffer ffs. The Venky's must be absolutely delighted.

Article; Blackburn Rovers' deal to sign midfielder Moussa Baradji has stalled, with discussions ongoing between all parties, The Lancashire Telegraph understands. Rovers flew the 24-year-old into Lancashire on Wednesday and was preparing for medical testing later that day. Everything was moving towards a formal announcement, alongside Ryan Alebiosu, who was unveiled on Wednesday night. However, the Baradji deal has not proven to be as straightforward. Discussions are ongoing between Rovers, Swiss club Yverdon Sport FC and Baradji to get the move back on track. It's understood that those talks will likely drag on over the weekend and there will be no announcement before Saturday's game against Accrington Stanley. The delay means it's possible Rovers fans will not get official confirmation of their club's fourth summer signing until next week. It's not known whether the issue is between the two clubs or whether there is an issue with personal terms. All agreements appeared to be in place as of Wednesday morning. It is not wholly uncommon for these issues to arise with so much complexity in contracts in modern football. However, this latest development will no doubt bring some anxiety to Rovers fans. Rovers did at least confirm Alebiosu last night and once he has international clearance, he will join his team-mate. The chances of him featuring at Accrington this weekend are slim considering he hasn't even trained yet. In all likelihood, the friendly with Everton next weekend will be the first opportunity. Hopefully, Baradji will be a done deal by then and can also feature.

Yeah you could be right actually Mark, will be an interesting watch!

I have a feeling Alebiosu is going to really surprise us, as Beck did last season. Definitely think we'll see Brittain being tried further up with the new lad behind.

Yes. Right now they are 2 of our best players, both absolutely vital members of the squad who deserve to be paid the going rate. I don't care about how much money the board want to save on wages, we need proven players on the pitch. These cost-cuts are unsustainable, we'll probably find ourselves in League One before long.

Another lad has just said the same thing on the RoversXtra group on X.

Blackburn Rovers remain interested in Marwan Al-Sahafi but a deal to sign the forward has not been agreed yet, The Lancashire Telegraph understands. Dion De Neve and Sidnei Tavares are Valerien Ismael's two new additions this summer and Rovers are keen to bolster his squad further. A left-sided centre-back has been a priority position the recruitment team have been working on but they also need to add in forward areas. The LT reported last month that Al-Sahafi was one of several wide players on their shortlist this summer. However, reports that a deal was advanced at that point were wide of the mark. Speculation has ramped up once again after the 21-year-old posted an image on social media showing he was in Manchester over the weekend. However, it's understood that, at the time of writing, a deal hasn't been formally agreed between the two clubs. Rovers remain interested in a move for Al-Sahafi but the situation is complicated by Saudi Pro League club Al-Ittihad, who own him. There has been speculation around the future of Laurent Blanc, their first-team head coach. Until there is clarity around their management team, it's unlikely any transfer, permanent or loan, will be sanctioned. Should that change, and things can move quickly in football, Rovers would be keen to try and reach an agreement. Adding pace and athleticism on the flanks has been a target all summer. The 21-year-old scored six goals in 25 appearances on loan at Beerschot last season. Rovers have taken a keen interest in the Belgian Pro League in recent seasons after the capture of Makhtar Gueye and De Neve. Ismael has spoken about the importance of his wide players having intensity and running power. That was a key driver in the signing of De Neve and Al-Sahafi's stats show similar qualities. If Rovers did secure another overseas recruit, it would be their third of the summer. The club are not exclusively looking outside of the UK but clearly, that is where they feel they can maximise their transfer budget at the moment. Legia Warsaw's Steve Kapuadi remains their top target at left-centre-back though they were linked with a move for Stockport County's Ethan Pye over the weekend. He is also left-footed and fits the profile they are trying to recruit for in defence.

Issue is; If Derby offer even a semi-decent amount of cash for Brittain - the muppets running the Club will snatch their hand off without hesitation. Doesn't matter if it's below his actual market value, or the fact that it'll massively weaken the squad... it'll be considered a win regardless, since it'll delay the owners having to pay their own bills and help lower the wages. Venkys and Suhail... fuck off.

Kaminski announced at Charlton. Rothwell to Rangers imminent... Is it "sign an ex Rovers player" day? 😅
