It’ll be one of Zatterstrom or Grbic going out of the 25 man squad. I thought Grbic had already gone and Zatterstrom to Crakovia had been sorted.
 
If he signs he may suprise people, add something different to the forward line, score the odd goal and play well, you never know.

True but he could also end up being like Danny Ings (another old player with a really good top level pedigree)
…..in that he’s often injured and too slow for 2nd tier level.

If the salary is cheap-ish then it’s an OK signing….we’ll see.
Does seem kind of bizarre that we can’t sign him until we release a squad player.
Seems like someone inside the club has made an error/ oversight regards the rules and Wilder wasn’t made away that we need to lose a player first.
 
Also, need to shift a player out of the squad that CW inherited...

“We have to move one of the players out,” he said. “It’s becoming a problem because he’s at the moment part of the 25-man squad that we’ve inherited.”
Zatterstrom is pretty much the only player left Wilder "inherited". Can't believe he's still using that as an excuse. This is his squad, his players.

Zatterstorm likely going out anyway but counts as an u21 player so we don't actually need to get him out for squad reasons

Grbic has gone. The one they're trying to shift is Ukaki; Zätterström doesn't count as he was 20 on January 1st. I have to confess that I didn't realise that we were forced to name any player in the squad rather than leaving spaces.

The 25-player squad below is colour-coded (apologies to those with green/red colour-blindness) as follows: Wilder signings (14+1 U21), Sélles signings (4+1), academy products (5+3), Heckingbottom signings (1); loan signings indicated with an asterisk

GK (2): Cooper, Davies
DF (8): Doherty, McCallum, Tanganga, Kitching*, Burrows, McGuinness, Norrington-Davies, Baptiste, Seriki
MF (10): Arblaster, Rothwell, Choudhury, Donovan*, Shackleton, Chong, Brereton Diaz*, Phillips*, Peck, Riedewald, Ukaki
FW (3): Cannon, Campbell, Bamford

U21 (4): Zätterström, Sasnauskas (injured?), Oné, Betts

Thanks to GrunkyPeep for the info which allowed me to correct the original squad list.

The 25-player squad...I can only get to 24?

All loan players have to be included so the 25th is Donovan

You don’t have to, it’s a narrative being put out to excuse somebody making a cock up of the submission,

Very underwhelming if he comes, a million miles away from the type of player we should be signing, although we are not an attractive option for players at the moment.

My one crumb of comfort is that one thing Ayew is good at is playing with his back to goal and holding it up to give time for the midfield to get forward & support. However, the last thing we need is another non scoring forward.

Other than Bamford we have no players that can do that. Both Cannon and Campbell have the first touch of a toddler and the control of a blithering idiot.

Indeed. When I looked at the current Burnley squad on Transfer Market they already had more than 25 players who would be classed as seniors even before they signed Vardy. They will have just left a slot in their list of 25 open for if they signed him.

Grbic has gone, he’s in Bulgaria. It was just that understated hardly anyone realised!
