Hey Fellow Bears
Given some comprehensive info over the weekend so thought I would share
Davies - Loan (already almost complete)
Matondo - Perm Transfer (3 championship teams have either bid or shown interest)
Cantwell - Perm Transfer (this will be late in the window, this guy is a dirty dog and trying his best to manufacture a free transfer out, club are aware and will only sell if his €6mil price is met) multiple offers and or enquires are in for him, club have told him he will be playing B team football if no club match their valuation
King - Loan SPL
Lowry - Loan SPL
Devine - Loan English league 1
Hagi - He basically needs to take a pay cut to move permanently, no club have offered him same wages, my source feels this may have to be a last min loan as he has told the club he won’t take a pay cut to leave, there is interest from clubs in taking him on loan and paying his wages in full, but no perm similar offer covering all his wages
Dowell - Similar to Hagi, multiple interested clubs, but none matching our fee and or his wages, this may also be a last min loan out
Dessers - Multiple offers, none matching our valuation €6mil not £4.7mil as being reported
Tav - Multiple offers, none matching both our valuation and his wages, and confirming again he has been told he can leave but only at the right price
Been told there is a new bonus structure set in place, comprehensive backing of the new sports science team and data, which is why we are yet to see Imagane, took time to see Cerny and why we are only seeing glimpses of Danilo
Regarding players in
As I’ve mentioned a few times, we are close on an experienced CDM and a younger midfielder
We have multiple options and talks ongoing for an international class (U21 or full) CB
And will replace Matondo if expected he seals his move away before the end of the week
Expect money to be spent, also been told not to be surprised if there is 1/ 2 big money spent on the right profile players in
Looking forward to a busy week.

Excellent information SydneyGer??.
26 Aug 2024 05:31:01
The gaffer said the other day. Only people that was not in the weekends squad will be leaving this week.
26 Aug 2024 06:29:18
Great info mate i'm looking forward to the week ahead to see what transpires.
26 Aug 2024 06:53:00
Good stuff sydney.
26 Aug 2024 06:55:40
Yes paul unless one of our main players has an offer in for him that meets or even exceeds our valuation, so everyone effectively for sale at the correct price ?.
26 Aug 2024 07:07:09
Sydney u get anything on tav wants pay off to compensate losing out on testimonial, circa 600 k.
26 Aug 2024 07:32:30
Time will tell.
26 Aug 2024 07:58:14
great info Sydney it shows we have players dictating to club what they
want i get no one wants a pay cut
so that leaves us with players
we may have to play because we ate paying them anyway.
26 Aug 2024 07:59:31
Nothing really new there most if not all that info has already been posted on here. Problem we have is all these players have been given inflated salaries and nobody is prepared to match our madness.
26 Aug 2024 07:59:54
I think we'd be better off taking half that for Cantwell so we can get him out of the club. Having guys like that even just playing with the B team will not help us in the long run. Shame as he had ability, but the attitude stinks.
26 Aug 2024 08:20:17
Not that I am aware of @John, was just told the fee and wages was the big hurdle in getting him moved on.
26 Aug 2024 08:33:50
I believe we would accept 3. Million for cantwell.
26 Aug 2024 08:33:54
Decent info Sydney, you're usually pretty sound with your info so hope that all works out.
26 Aug 2024 08:48:34
John we're desperately trying to reduce wages then why would we increase wages of two players who've only just joined?
26 Aug 2024 08:49:23
I never want to see Cantwell in a Rangers Jersey again. Good post Sydney.
26 Aug 2024 09:18:37
That's the post I wanted to see this morning, brilliant Syd.
26 Aug 2024 09:31:00
Good post and if we get 6m euros for cantwell I'd be amazed, I think a cdm and a no10 are priority if Lawrence gets injured we've no1 to play that 10 role perhaps dio but no1 else. I'd be content going with the ch we have if it meant resources could be used elsewhere and maybe in jan we could look again.
26 Aug 2024 09:40:28
John think if we get offered 3m for Cantwell it would be better to take it, if we don't it will cost over 1m in wages, so better to cut our loses.
26 Aug 2024 09:58:14
Looks like Cantwell will go late for not a lot of money if any. The club have broadcast the problem and buyers ain't all daft. Same problem with Lowry and Hagi.
26 Aug 2024 10:44:53
Thanks for the info, Sydney. I was one that would have welcomed Cantwell back, however some of the reports coming through lately would now make that impossible imo. Just shows nobody knows the full story. If all the reports are true he really is a silly guy. No wonder he can't get the move he wants.
26 Aug 2024 10:50:57
Sydney Ger, nice journalism there.
My info I'd that nobody has actually placed a bid for Hagi. I'm told his agent was at it trying to drum up interest. They knew the situation with his wages and were informed that he could leave but there were no bids for him.
I heard Tavernier wants to leave, heard nothing regarding bids for him though.
Hearts had a loan offer for King knocked back in pre-season.
Unlikely King will leave now.
26 Aug 2024 11:04:55
We haven't done too badly this window in terms of players leaving, but more need to go. Hopefully we can see players like Dowell, Tav, Cantwell, Lawrence, Matondo and others go.
26 Aug 2024 11:10:26
Thanks Sydney, any information is always appreciated.
26 Aug 2024 11:34:23
Kaiser as both are on less than 10k, and we want to increase length of deal by a year with a years option
Smart business extra 2k a week each.
26 Aug 2024 11:45:24
Well done. not a SIMGLE one right. Cantwell will go out on loan and Clement said on Saturday that players leaving were not in the squad to face Ross County. Matondo was.
26 Aug 2024 12:18:25
Good info Sydney.
Players who are contracted to the club will not be dictating how things go and glad that tik tok superstar has been told he will be in the B team unless he doesn't want paid the wee weasel.
Also can people please stop saying that PC stated people who were in the matchday squad won't be leaving, he isn't going to come out and say yes they are away or getting sold. If that was the case and all matchday players weren't being sold then we'd be left with too much deadwood.
26 Aug 2024 12:28:58
Good info Sydney ?????????.
26 Aug 2024 12:46:18
Davies deal was confirmed yesterday, there is no way we will be holding out for that amount for Cantwell and is there that much difference between £4.7 million and 6 million euros for Dessers.
26 Aug 2024 13:18:39
Get reasonably close to the clubs valuation of any player in squad or not, they are under starters orders. and they're off . Only Butland has been implied by the manager he is 'probably' not for sale .
26 Aug 2024 13:38:19
Cantwell at the madam just get rid and let his next club put up with him.
26 Aug 2024 13:45:49
Yet PC made clear that those playing at weekend were staying.
26 Aug 2024 13:59:11
Have you heard of any interest in Andy Irving? Would be just what we need.
26 Aug 2024 15:21:59
PC might have said anyone playing would not leave but he also said everyone was for sale except Butland at the right price so if anybody thinks if we get a 3 million Bid for Matondo and get his huge wages off the books and we won't accept you are deluded.
26 Aug 2024 16:51:11
Polaberr yes that's what was said.
26 Aug 2024 16:52:04
Its going to be a helluva a busy week.
Great info Sydney. Thanks for sharing.
