So no signings yet.. but club have made contact with clubs and players' representatives already over the following players in view of making bids.. Stones, Hackney, Bowen, Aeda, Parrott… I’m told that out of all of these Hackney is the closest to being done.

Who's told you that, Elvis?

Stones, no, we need to be looking younger and put Branthwaite and Obrien together this season. Hackney, yes, to replace Gana, plus another to replace Tim if he goes. Bowen, yes, would have him but think he would cost too much.
Ayase Ueda, not sure on. Parrot is something different to what we have. If Barry goes, would go for Dju personally. Still hope we get Jack for another loan and take the option for George, plus Doue and Diouf. Would be happyish with that.

Things looking up Elvis in would take all of those to what we have at the moment, mate and more in the pipeline as well.

I hope we are not doing one at a time. We may need to ask for the transfer deadline day to be moved.

I forgot to mention, guys, that Grealish will be rejoining on a loan all things being well and that Moyes is still keen on Delap - waiting to hear back from Chelsea on valuations etc. No contact made on him just yet.
