@NeilStirzaker @sunderlandafc11 He's a very good player, would be an upgrade imo and counts as homegrown which is an added bonus

Sunderland are ready to challenge Nottingham Forest for Fenerbahçe’s Archie Brown. Vítor Pereira’s side have already made advances to bring him to the City Ground in the summer. On May 1st, Sport Witness covered claims from Turkey of Nottingham Forest making a €16m official offer for Brown. The Reds now face competition from Sunderland to try and sign the left-back. In fact, the Black Cats have also made an attempt to win the battle in the upcoming window. Sunderland follow Nottingham Forest That’s according to Takvim, relayed by Sporx, who cover the latest on Régis Le Bris and Nottingham Forest. The 23-year-old is on the agenda of Nottingham Forest and Atlético Madrid, and these two clubs are closely following him. Sunderland enter the battle for Archie Brown and have made a ‘strong effort’ to snatch him from Fenerbahçe. The Black Cats have submitted an offer for the fullback with the Turkish club’s current management. There’s no mention of the fee offered but Takvim insists the Süper Lig side won’t make the final decision until their new management is in place. Fenerbahçe have confirmed a presidential election will take place on June 6-7th. The group winning the election will then decide on whether or not to accept Sunderland’s offer for the Englishman. They would also evaluate Nottingham Forest’s reported bid of €16m. Brown is a product of Derby County’s youth system and left them as a free agent without making a first team appearance. He joined Lausanne-Sport for free in July 2021 and then moved to KAA Gent in August 2023. Last summer, the Belgian club sold the defender to Fenerbahçe. Operating mainly as a left-back, he’s managed five goals and seven assists from 38 games for the Istanbul club. Contract, value and agent info In the summer, Archie Brown will have two years left on his contract, with an option for another year. Transfermarkt value him at €12m and agency Epic Sports Football are representing the fullback. sportwitness.co.uk/sunderland-sub…

@AJTLUFC @patrickscottlad Hume isn't shite, id start Bogle ahead of him but only just- there isn't much of a difference between the 2 of them!
English
Roefs, Hume, Mukiele, Ballard, Xhaka, Le Fee all walk into the Leeds side.
Fortunately for us, they’ll be playing European football next season.
Jack@JackLUFC1919
@CharlieSafc_ Roefs hume, mukiele, ballard, masuaku Rigg, xhaka, le fee Talbi Isidor Adingra Come on mate that is horrendous for the prem
English
@LUFC_Tennis @willftm73 @patrickscottlad You prefer a squad that finished 14th over a squad that finished 7th and that you only took 1 point off??? Ok then
English
@willftm73 @patrickscottlad Underlying numbers show how lucky you were. I prefer our squad
English
@JacobWest575301 @patrickscottlad Mukiele would be your best CB, he's def not shit he's been our 3rd best player this season behind Le Fee and Xhaka
English
@patrickscottlad I'd only take the latter 3 either way, the first 3 are shit you can keep them
English
@patrickscottlad You also forgot to mention that Bogle gets used as a wingback and even at times a winger so makes mukieles numbers even more impressive
English
@patrickscottlad Mental that they are comparing Bogle to Mukiele, it's not even close Mukiele is levels above Bogle (i like Bogle as well). Mukiele would be Leeds best RB and best CB, he's quality
English
Mukiele - 3 goals, 4 assists, in 2787 minutes.
Bogle - 2 goals, 4 assists, in 2805 minutes.
Bearing in mind Mukiele has played a decent amount as a CB this season, and was part of the 4th best defence in the league.
Not bad for someone shit on the ball.
Jacob West@JacobWest575301
@patrickscottlad I'm not even taking the piss, it would be quite funny if I was, but I'm not. It's also not because I hate Sunderland because I actually quite like yous. Mukiele is sound defensively sure, but on the ball he's shit. We can talk data if you want, but I'll win 🤷

@willftm73 @lackzxzx @UnderTheLight73 We can't just sign squad fillers, we need to sign players who can improve us otherwise we will go backwards. Doyle isn't good enough to play CB in a back 4 in the PL imo
English
@willftm73 @lackzxzx @UnderTheLight73 We need good players, of course we need homegrown players but they have to be able to step up to the level we are at. Alderete is good but we can sign better imo, we need to build a strong squad as players will need rested
English
You’d imagine that 35-45 has dropped now they’ve gone down.
Maybe a big role in a European campaign at a club know for developing & playing youngsters could tempt him

Inter Xtra@Inter_Xtra
🚨 #Inter, along with Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool, is monitoring Wolfsburg defender, Konstantinos Koulierakis, very closely. 🇬🇷 The German side values the 22-year-old at €35M-45M. 👀 [via @Fussballdaten]
English
@LUFC_BULL We will likely sell players like Adingra, Patterson, Mundle and 1 of Isidor/Mayenda - thatll bring us 40-50 million in without it impacting the quality of the starting line up. Our revenue will increase a lot as well plus our wage bill is still really low so we'll be fine
English
@adiDallas15 Sunderland dont have a Jobe Bellingham to cash in on either.
English
Interesting to see how Sunderland will get on. Europe come too soon?
English
@willftm73 @lackzxzx @UnderTheLight73 Not good enough imo, Doyle suits a back 3 not a back 4 so would struggle. We def need to look at homegrown players but this Greek lad would be a starter and a massive upgrade in what we've got.
English
@M_Gi11on @PalmerWould @pootzwar Aye got to be smart with recruitment but it's possible as our wage bill is really low. Will need to sell some of the squad players to help as well
English
@SeanCobain @PalmerWould @pootzwar Tough to have unreal summers with the 75% cap in Europe. Will need to keep finding low cost talent who can deliver.

@SkyBlueBen @Gurnery_ @CoventryKing @wjd_1987 Sometimes have to sell to improve the squad, always about what you do with the money
English
@SeanCobain @Gurnery_ @CoventryKing @wjd_1987 I hope we don’t tbh as I’d like the quality players to stay. It was a shame we had to sell Gyokeres and Hamer from the 23 team but it had to be done. If we get a silly offer, like Jobe, I imagine we’ll sell.
English
@willr171 @liamsafc96 @the_irishguy Why would I not be buzzing about my team getting into Europe? You like to think you are a massive team, you've won 1 trophy in about 70 years. I never criticised you for enjoying it, I'm criticising you for thinking that anything below the CL is beneath you
English
@SeanCobain @liamsafc96 @the_irishguy You are creaming yourself over the backup UCL but you criticise me for enjoying 2x UCL and a trophy? 😂😂 buddy we were in the final the season before and the semi final this season… have you ever actually been in the UCL? I’m gonna take a guess… no? No need to check
English
How the hell did Sunderland finish five whole places above Newcastle..
English
@PalmerWould @pootzwar Aye i don't take it as a dig as impossible to judge now, educated guesses that's all. Some Fans will always give defensive over any 'negative' thing about their team. I know we need a great summer to help for next season, buzzing for it tho
English
@SeanCobain @pootzwar not sure how so many Sunderland fans have taken it as an insult tbh
English
@willr171 @liamsafc96 @the_irishguy Well done you've been in the CLs, you've done fuck all in it tho!! Fair play you've won 1 league cup in my life time, stop acting like you are proven winners - you aren't!!! I couldn't give 2 fucks if you are jealous or not
English
@SeanCobain @liamsafc96 @the_irishguy This is your peak, your greatest ever, and it’s not even our average… and I’m meant to believe it’s a close rivalry
Do you expect me to feel jealous over a tournament with not a single UCL team present? Do you know what the UCL is?
English
@PalmerWould @pootzwar Think both will finish lower, hard to tell at the minute tho - if both have unreal summers then who knows
English
@SeanCobain @pootzwar Obviously things are likely to change depending on this summer but both teams are going to fall off in the league next season
English
@PalmerWould @pootzwar Neither have big enough squads yet - big summers ahead.... exciting
English
English
@liamsafc96 @the_irishguy I mean this in the nicest way, Chelsea looked like they were willing to die to avoid Europa League and I understand them, it’s one thing having your season determined by UCL, but Europa is just plain insulting. For you, it’s amazing. For everyone else… nah.
English
@CoventryKing @wjd_1987 @Gurnery_ Literally never heard you be called that, but i do rate your recruitment team. It'll be about if they can step up as well. We managed to get a top DoF in the summer which helped kick our impressive recruitment team on even more
English
@SeanCobain @wjd_1987 @Gurnery_ Our whole strength is recruitment the whole country literally calls us Brentford 2.0
English
@CoventryKing @BigBallard5 @wjd_1987 @Gurnery_ Proved right about us? What's been proven? That we stayed up comfortably, got europe football? Hope you had a bet on that since you were proven right
English
@BigBallard5 @SeanCobain @wjd_1987 @Gurnery_ I think the same about you lot and I keep getting proved right
