Incoming? David Carmo

[Westran]

No idea on the validity or likelihood of this, but the rumour comes from a Twitter account with 200k followers, which obviously makes it true

 

[Westran]

Left footed CB, good in possession, good at cutting out threats and in the air

On 5 July 2022, Carmo signed a five-year contract with Porto for €20 million, which probably rules us out.

Can't see us winning that battle then! Next!

Probably just unfounded anyway given McCall has said we're focussing on the domestic market. B) loans will be recruited and C this lad will probably cost far more than we could afford. I can see interest from Wolves far more than us.

Similar facial features to a young Snoop.

Given who our new owner is. It's not a surprising.

He is only young and has only appeared 8 times for Porto this year, maybe a loan would work for them

Maybe so if he's not a regular but would imagine we'll be going with someone domestically but who knows.

Feels like we're going to see a lot of "Sheffield United and Burnley are both interested" this close season.

It's agent nonsense isn't it?

 

[Bergen Blade]

We've tried Portuguese players twice before with Ribeiro and Marcelo, maybe three times a Carm(o)?

Carmo has been absolutely battered in the press by their manager and dumped from the team completely pre-xmas.


I'd say he's available.

"On 12 November 2020, Carmo extended his contract for two more years to 2025. He nearly joined Liverpool on a €4 million loan with an obligation to buy in the next winter transfer window, but manager Carlos Carvalhal convinced him to stay as the team also would not have been able to find a suitable replacement in that timeframe."

4 million euros for a loan???

This was whilst a braga and Liverpool had a defensive crisis

Foxy & Linz Can we have a groan button please

 

[Nicolaus_Copernicus]

If we are looking at Portuguese or Portugal based LCB’s, then Leite, currently on loan at Union Berlin, Morato squad player at Benfica or Relvas at Portimao are better and cheaper alternatives.

How did this remark slip through without attracting comment…..

Yep, fully expect us to be linked with everyone and anyone this pre-season.
