Summer Transfer Window

[Abseits]

If we need more cash to get Ronnie it would be very tempting to cash in on Verane to finance it. If we could push a deal through at £5m.

The link to Harun Ibrahim could be Varane's replacement. Also, Dunne has played defensive midfield in the past.

Yes. Don't really understand why Varane's stock is so high with many of us? He's average in my view.. had an iffy start last season then did settle down. He was better than Andersen and Madsen but that's a low bar. I don't see him ever taking the game by the scruff of the neck or "dominating". Offers nothing going forwards and doesn't seem to be a focal point for linking play with the attack - he's just been a cog in our slow plodding play and hasn't done much to address the fact we're too soft, too easy to play against and too easy to get at.

He's certainly not a liability and I'm not itching to launch him either. BUT £4/£5 Million would be a tidy profit I'd consider. Moreover, if that money greased the wheels for a move for Edwards it does become very attractive. I actually think Edwards would be a better defensive midfielder than Varane.

Could be cheap at twice the price.

QPR are signing Swedish midfielder Isak Alemayehu for around £60,000.

Ronnie Edwards has to be the priority now. Southampton have just sold Fernandez to West for 40m so probably not that bothered about money but he isn't starting so you could look at that as a positive. They have plenty of money to improve their starting 11

Despite my pessimism I see the Ronnie Edwards saga is growing some legs... some interweb ####ter out there suggesting he's discussing terms with us.... Imagine it turns into an Isak standoff!

He thinks your a nutter too!

Apparently an 18 year old midfielder coming for a medical. Isak Alemayehu from Djurgaden. Will be a fee although I suspect not much and would be surprised if seen as anything more than an addition to the development squad. That said has some first team experience over there although did score against Chelsea last season!

Surprised to see we bid for Edwards and would be stunned if we got him. Should be very much with top end Championship side with a look to promotion and then playing in Premiership. Whilst I'm sure he enjoyed his time with us can't see him coming back.

interesting thing is the willingness to splash cash after Eze sale.

Looks like we are going to have a great team in 3 or 4 years time ! Should boss the National league!

18-year-old midfielder Isak Alemayehu has travelled to London to undergo a medical with Queens Park Rangers ahead of his move to the Championship side.

According to Swedish outlet Expressen, Alemayehu is already in the capital to go through the necessary medical tests to become a new member of the R's. After that, few details will be left to sort out before the Djurgarden player can officially sign his new deal.

The club's director of sport, Bosse Andersson, stated on Friday that the 18-year-old, who has come through their academy, had left to go and do a medical with his new club, which, at the time, was not specified. QPR will pay a transfer fee to sign Alemayehu, who was just months away from becoming a free agent at the end of 2025.

"I can confirm that Isak has permission to travel and meet with a new club to undergo a medical and sign his personal agreement," said Andersson, via Expressen. "The clubs agree on a transfer."

QPR have turned down a loan offer from Saint-Étienne for Varane that included a €5 (£4.3) million option to buy. It is understood that Stéphan has made it clear that the player will not be going anywhere with so little time left in the window.

Queens Park Rangers and Oxford United are set for a late transfer battle ahead of Monday night's deadline as they target the services of GAIS midfielder, Harun Ibrahim.

But, will we have to move a decimal point or two on the first bid for him.

I'd love Edwards back here. Can't see it happening in a month of Sundays... his quality must have been noticed by many clubs last season and he has international recognition too. His stock is literally too high for us.

IF the club did make an offer I feel fairly sure it was done more in the spirit of trying to appease a disgruntled fanbase than actually landing their man.

Lastly, I remember when the rumours started a few years ago about a return of Charlie Austen I couldn't see it happening and pooh-poohed it. BUT... we did get him back. So, despite my pessimism who knows with Ronnie?

[shaggy24]

I was saying we should go for Edward’s last week, many scoffed.

One poster said something about moving a decimal point, strange.

Come on Rangers.. get Ronnie.

Tbh if you were Ronnie never got a look last season farmed out us plays 21 games 2 goals if he’d been here a season he’d of pi$$ed player of the season played with smile on his face.

Goes back back to soton gives away a pen and binned again he’s a decent pro who just wants to play yes wages etc may be a gap hopefully we can thrash out a deal larger sell on etc whatever it takes he’s got the ability for prem can’t really say the same for the others at the back even chuck in Madsen ! Ok take Madsen out packet of dry roasted instead
