Summer 2025 transfer rumours

never underestimate the pulling power of the Austrian Bundesliga 2

 

Did someone say early on in the thread we asked about 2 Man City loans? The guy on x who suggests names not rumours as such has got 2 Man City players in his suggestions
Luke mbete (cb left footed)
Mahamadou susoho (cdm)

 

You can put an image into Google these days and it uses recognition, probably how it was done.

 

Can anyone see us signing another CB though with 6 contracted. Id have thought it was a DM and then possibly an AM as a filler.

 

We use trialists and players without clubs to maintain numbers for training matches and formation practices.

 

Has Huntington travelled to Austria or does anyone have a status update what’s the situation with him?

 

Not travelled. I'm sure I read he's been injured, hence why he hasn't featured in the early pre season games. It doesn't look like Smith or Wilson are there either from the videos and pics I've seen.

 

Quite a few videos from the club of the Austria training camp on twatter, but you're right, neither appear to be there.

 

There are vids on F/B . Cycling and river

 

Must be the same ones.

 

Ahh yes Goodman. Plus Huntington lurking and the trialist.

 

I know it's only a bit of fun to build up fitness etc and it isn't the TdF, but they should do more to make sure that the bikes are set up to fit the players properly, even for a short ride. Especially for going up hill, when they will be straining a bit. Quite easy to tweak something which then gets exacerbated when doing more regular, strenuous training. And then the school gets the blame ...

 

They should be wearing cycling helmets too. We don't want a key player getting a head injury if they have a collision or fall off.

 

Both had loan spells in league 1 last season. Given that they are in their early 20's, you would think that Man City would be looking for them to step up a level?

Interestingly Susoho was born in Spain but moved to Bradford as a kid.

 

I think players and club are sensible enough to ensure they don't put themselves in risky positions. Doubt they doing wheelies and flying down dirt tracks at 30mph anyway.

 

Given that GA said yesterday that we didn’t try to bring Tayo back because Richards had signed and we had Touray and it wouldn’t be fair for a loanee to come and sit on the bench. I doubt we will be signing another CB on loan

 

Susoho was one of the names mentioned but the other was a young striker
