Djibril Sow

[Heffing Psycho!]

How are we feeling about CM at the moment? Felt like we were going to break our record for one earlier in the window, but have instead added a number of really good value players (who look strong so far).

I personally am very happy with the group, but still get the feeling Forest are willing to spend more here given the Sow links

Just don't see where the space is for anymore. Yates, Freuler, Mangala, O'Brien with Kouyate and potentially Aouar who can sit in there too. How would you keep them all happy if you add more? That's ignoring Colback and Cafu who are still here for now as well.

I fear being ignored (in a nice way as Coops is a great man manager ) is what's in store for Cafu and especially Colback now... they must be looking for moves elsewhere I'd have thought

Yeah at the very least I feel like we’ve added enough to that group to warrant giving them til Jan to see where we are at. As you say adding anymore without cause would be overkill.

Might need Strummer or any other German speakers to translate a bit here because it's a video but seems to be suggesting we've put a €50m package on the table for him:

50-Millionen-Angebot aus der Premier League für Sow

HITC seem to have translated the info I see: basically it's the same offer we made before being described I think and his wages being factored in to get to the total cost:

Djibril Sow would earn £100k-a-week in 50m euro Nottingham Forest deal

Premier League transfer news - Nottingham Forest like Djibril Sow of Eintracht Frankfurt but the Bundesliga outfit don't want to sell.

www.hitc.com

It doesn't seem to rule out a deal in the window still, or a few months later perhaps (ie January), but I'm not sure that's any more than HITC's interpretation of the possibilities.

I doubt we'll still get him, Winks and Garner over the course of the season anyway now lol, but you never know considering we've signed 3 left backs/wing backs (that deal for Lodi looks a bit of a masterstroke, presumably by Dane, and potentially incredible value on the face of it though, with the low loan fee relative to his value, and a pre-agreed future transfer fee in case he becomes a key player and we're in a position to spend the money next season - it seems the sort of deal Dane apparently likes to do anyway).

Yeah, the video is just a rehash of the previous story that did the rounds - massive pay-packet and all.

Cannot see it myself, Eintracht don‘t want to sell, and they are often pretty good at holding on to players they want to keep, until a stupidly large offer appears.

Just to comment on this mate: it might have escaped your attention (or maybe your info is better or more up-to-date and based on what the video says), but it was said previously that Forest and Eintracht were in agreement, but the player decided to stay and play in the Champions League I believe (having spoken to Forest though).

50 million package - 20 million up front, 5 million in add-ons, 4 year contract - 6 million a year. Woman says it’s crazy!

 

[Redemption]

Nothing is crazy any more.

We live in a world of possibilities.

It's refreshing to see someone not just jumping for money, I know there's more to Forest than that but you can see why we're targeting players like him. Grounded, hard working, loyal.

 

[Red Dog in a Forest]

He's off to Lazio.

15 million Euro's plus add-ons.

Lazio seem to be in on a few at the moment. They must have a little cash to throw about.

40 million from Al Hilal certainly helps
