Unless anyone comes in with silly silly money Summerville is likely to stay from what G Smyth is saying, same for Gnonto.

I think if we get offered 35m+ for Summerville, we'll take it. I'll be shocked if he's here by the time the season starts.

I think it would have to be stupid money

Re: ALL NEW 49ERS ERA LEEDS UTD THREAD : Thu Jul 04, 2024 1:03 pm  

The thing is, we don't need the money now. We then need to consider can we replace his 20 goals and numerous assists... it's no good with the money in the bank if we can't replace him like for like and weaken the team.. any new signing is always a gamble.. need to be very careful.

I`m not so sure Summerville wants to stay as I think he thinks he could do better.
I`d rather take 40+ million for a player who wants to go than keep someone against his wishes.
It is only speculation on my part I know just a gut feeling I suppose.

He's happy to stay according to well placed sources.

Those goals and assists could be replaced from within. Gnonto and James both showing last season they can score and assist, but they were barely on the field at the same time. If they were the starting wingers they could potentially come up with those numbers together. Also get Piroe or another striker firing, and a few more goals from midfield.

That`s good to hear mate.
I suppose if a team like PSG come in for him and he can increase his salary plus gets to play in Europe you wouldn`t blame him similar to Gray at Spurs.
Rumour that Meslier might leave yet and I`m not convinced we have a decent backup in our squad.
Rodak at Fulham would be a great acquisition.
I also think we need to get Roberts from Burnley.
