[Official TC Thread] January Transfer Window 2025 - 3rd Feb 11pm Deadline

What have you heard regarding Kvistgaarden?

There’s not a chance we go with just Idah second half of season. There’s still a few days so no need to panic yet.

 

Based on?

 

We can't possibly go the rest of the season with only Jota being brought in...* taking a chance like that could actually risk the league.

 

We litterly always panic around this time

 

Brondby being exactly like Arsenal and Arteta, *

 

totally agree and think we will get players in. Just feel selling Kyogo and letting Valle go without replacements even close is pretty running on a thin line.

 

Brondby moving goalposts

 

We will get a loan for left back and potentially CF if we can’t progress either of the deals.

 

There’s no excuse not to get a striker and left back in this window, I’m sure I read earlier we made around 45 million through the CL alone.

We’ve managed some good bits of recruitment recently, so I’m cautiously optimistic we’ll come out of this window stronger.

 

Arsenal have blocked a Kieran Tierney move to Celtic before the close of the transfer window.

The Scotland defender will sign a pre-contract agreement to return to Parkhead on a four year deal in the summer

With Ukrainian left back Oleksandr Zinchenko a target for Borussia Dortmund, Arsenal have now told Tierney he is going nowhere.

Keen to make a push for the Premier League and Champions League, Mikel Arteta has Riccardo Califiori and Myles Lewis-Skelly available to play left-back, but has brought Tierney off the bench in recent weeks.

Effectively a free agent, Tierney attracted interest from Bayer Leverkusen, Sevilla, Juventus and Everton when Arsenal passed on the option of adding another 12 months to a contract which lapses this summer. Keen to return home to be closer to family, the defender will take a substantial pay-cut to rejoin Celtic in the summer.

With Greg Taylor their last recognised left-back, Celtic are assessing options for a loan until the summer.

Manchester United are willing to listen to proposals for 25-year-old Tyrell Malacia after wrapping up a deal for Lecce’s Patrick Dorgu.

The Dutch defender returned from an 18-month absence caused by a knee meniscus injury in November.

And Celtic and Real Betis are just two of the clubs showing an interest in a loan deal until the summer.


Rodgers is also in the market for a striker after selling an unsettled Kyogo Furuhashi to Rennes for £10million

Brondby’s Mathias Kvistgaarden is a target, with the clubs some distance apart on valuation. The Scottish champions could turn to the loan market in the final days of the window.

 

In an ideal world you would like to have gotten in the reported 4 main targets this window which seemed to be

Orjasaeter
Kvistgaarden
Slotsager
Tierney

But could be a magnitude of reasons we can't look summer we wanted 5 heading into final few days and got 3

Would have been nice to get these 4 guys with Jota and get everyone bedded in for next season but if not then what can we do, players have a value and if clubs don't want to sell then the player doesn't move


If it's a random left back and striker on loan so be it nothing we can do, will most (including myself) accept it aye, some will be unhappy but it is what it is 98hours left in window anything can happen but as it stands it doesn't look great in terms on incoming!

 

It's * back to * status when it comes back to recruitment letting your best striker go and letting your back up left back go as well without anyone coming in will be criminal so a big few days ahead for the club .

 

Couple of days to make this window passable.

Getting Jota back is brilliant, but we’ve sold our best striker and lost a left back.

Club needs to get its finger out and sign some players. 1 in by this point is poor.

 

We’ve spent a fair bit of dough and finally seem to be moving more towards 5-10m bracket rather than 2-3m but for all the food, I have to agree there’s still some bad… the decision making in the last week to let Kyogo and Valle go without guaranteed replacements reeks of incompetence.

 

Poor is an understatement, * negligence if the club let our main striker leave with no contingency plan to replace him with the window so close to shutting.
However we don't know that for fact so we need to chill until we see what transpires..... Then riot lol

 

I've no idea what will happen with this Danish Johnny; but I still feel KT is likely to come back this window for a small fee. He can't go anywhere else and he's worth more to us as our first-choice LB than to Arsenal as their third. That means a deal should be possible that makes both sides better off. I think it's just going to the wire because both sides are playing hardball to get the best deal they can.

 

Kvistgaarden ain't happening, highly doubt it. Loan left back is just pointless
