Championship Transfers (club by club)

[Midlands Yellow 4,682]

Here’s a quick summary of all our rivals business so far this summer. The free transfer market has been popular but some  have been spending a few quid. Has our latest signing at £3m which seems about right.

Only 8 clubs are £2 mill or more out of pocket in terms of ins vs outs. 

Last season it was only 4, we were one of them.

Championship transfers certainly not returned to pre-covid state yet, although you'd imagine theres a lot more action to happen this summer yet

Coventry about to announce the signing of Heerenveen right back Van Ewijk. They’ve beat some serious competition apparently to get this player for around £4m.

The net figure is the main intersting one - across the board it’s £191m sales against £85m purchases; not many sides will have a net outflow (binners do, as do we so far, both small) of any note.

Leicester already without Conor Coady for the start of the new season due to injury. More departures likely too in the coming weeks. I can’t see many clubs we should fear at this stage.

Much of a muchness so far. Our business on paper looks amongst the best there, bar the loss of Mumba. 
 

Leicester have lost of lot but have made some useful additions. Sunderland will go again this year. 
 

A lot of business still to come.

Did we pay a fee for him? Nothing mentioned.. Older player with a year left on his contract, doubt we paid that.

From beyond the grave.

Put it this way-if we had a player who had started 26 of the 30 league games he was available for this season, he’d scored 6 and assisted 5, he had a year left on his contract and we let him go for less than £3 million, the fans would be in meltdown.

Agree, although even with a lot more action I think the net spends will get even lower! Leeds selling Gnonto, Saints Ward Prowse etc

Birmingham have done some good business, so have Bristol City and Millwall.

If you was a neutral you would probably say ours looks decent 

Coventry beat competition from Leeds United, PSV Eindhoven, and Anderlecht. That's some going.

They've done some very good business this summer Latibeaudiere, Simms, Da Silva.

I think the 3 relegated prem sides will all be strong, will all finish in the top 6 no problem. You can take out a JWP, Laivia or a Gnonto but look at those squads still very very strong. 

Look at Leeds they lose Kristensen at RB and Drameh comes back from a loan, they lose Koch and Cresswell comes back from a loan. They lose Gnonto and they still have Sinisterra, Dan James, Harrison and Summerville as wide options. The 3 relegated sides have very large very strong squads.

This is from Transfermarkt, obviously it's not 100% fact or proof but it's reasonably accurate of what each squad is worth in monetary value. Look at how far those top 3 are from everyone else. 2 of those will get automatics.

Key for Coventry is Hamer staying, so far not signing the new contract on offer. Him with O’Hare (when fit again) would be top pairing midfield. That said ours is looking very strong and I’d really expect Sara to kick on big time this season.

There was an amusing comment on TWTD saying they couldn't understand why a centre forward had picked Coventry instead of them. My slightly less biased view is that if they get O'Hare fit and Hamer stays they will be right up there. For starters, this time they won't have all the messing around they had at the start last season

Well this is the Swiss league. They only paid half that for him when they got him. Last year, they sold a better prospect for not much more. Doubt we paid anywhere near 3million euros for him.
