The Daily Mail are reporting this morning that the deal for Bassey to Ajax is still reliant on their LB going to Man Utd.

Apparently we have agreed £19million, with £4.25 in add on's.

Sure it will go through, but stranger things have happened!

Man U are signing a CH from ajax that can also play left back but he is a CH and it’s been reported to be a done deal.

Martinez his already over getting his United medical. Would be shocked if that deal didn’t go through now. Biggest test for us now is spending whatever money Gio is given from the sale well. Need a young attacking LB and LCB cover to make up for losing bassey.

Stormtrooper, agree cH plays LB as well.
My main point is that half the money from that transfer is to go on Basseys transfer.
I am sure the deal is done also, as I am sure the Man utd deal will go through.
But it does state in most reports that the money from one is meant to pay for the other.

Hi all this is my first post, hope you are all doing well. With regarding to our Bassey replacement I think we should go for the boy Doron Leidner. I think he’s much better than Barasic he would also definitely get a start over him, just watched this boy on YouTube and he’s got pace, dribbling and can use both feet aswell as getting forward but Barasic in the past season has always opted to go back, Thoughts?

Bit harsh John especially to a new poster. If there’s proof the lad can use both feet effectively, and has pace, then it’s down to whether we are looking at him. YouTube isn’t the most reliable source but any video footage that demonstrates pace and ability to use both pegs well, is proof in itself. Whether he’s good enough is altogether another issue.

Welcome to the forum Ross.

Ross1872, I agree re Bariscs

I've got snails in my garden that go forward more than Borna! ?.

Not really ibrox. I use tread mill nearly every day off week, can still swim a few lengths and 20000 steps can be done.

You can’t take any notice of you tube tho John is right it’s not the best place to base if a player is good or not.

John25 “I’m in my late 60s and look good on YouTube”

I remember us signing Joe Dodoo and I stated to everyone that he looked amazing, just because I saw his high-light clips on YouTube. Turns out that I was the tube!

Just seen John on YouTube, sign him for an undisclosed fee with add-ons.

The boy Leidner is just out of his teens, has very little experience of higher level football and, while he might be a prospect, he wouldn't be a straight and immediate replacement for Bassey.

How can someone be classed as better than a full Croatian international from YouTube clips? Baffling.
