I have been told some interesting news today regarding transfers and potential new signings from a person who is always spot on.
What I’ve been told is that apart from Joe Ralls none of the other out of contract players have been offered new deals and will all be released. Talks with Ralls are ongoing though and it’s a low offer, so Ralls is taking his time.
The club also have been speaking to Leeds about trying to make Cody Drameh’s loan move into a permanent one and signing him outright. He apparently loves playing for us and was shocked that he won player of the year and also loves the city and living here and is apparently keen on the move too.
A new season long loan deal for Tommy Doyle is in the works too but there’s competition from several other clubs for him and Man City will have the final decision.
Jordan Hugill will be returning to Norwich and City have shown no interest.
Uche Ikpeazu back to Middlesbrough and the club won’t be looking to make any further moves for either player.
Apparently Ikpeazu isn’t well liked by d some staff or players and apparently is a big time Charlie and can be rude and arrogant?though he’s been welcomed by the fans. This may explain why he was omitted from the match day squad for the Birmingham match.
Curtis Nelson will be appointed the new captain for next season.
Gareth Bale and Cardiff City talks have happened but a lot depends on the outcome of the World Cup play off and if Wales actually qualify or not, but apparently his family are back living in Cardiff and he’s got several business interests here and quite open to the move.
Steve Morison is open to Josh Murphy coming back and if his attitude improves he will asses him over pre season with the potential to offer him a 3 or 6 month short term contract.
That’s all I know so far.

Murphy has the talent but our previous manger played a different way but Morison could bring the best out of him .

I think most (certainly not all) will be okay with the Joe Ralls sutuation; keep him at the right price
Getting rid of all the others (their choice or ours) bar one is no biggie, although I could argue the case for Will Vaulks, too
My personal exception would be captain Sean Morrison; although with Curtis Nelson being linked to the skipper's role, that doesn't look likely and I'll be saddened to see him go
Hadn't hear that about Uche Ikpeazu but I have about certain others, including one or two over-hyped (by certain media people) U-23's who are nit likely to be around next season; and one or two of those have caused their own problems. It doesn't matter what Steve Morison is like as a character, he is the boss and needs a certain (even if begrudging) respect
Again personally, I'm not against a chastened Josh Murphy getting a chance to redeem himself; we need a winger , we paud a lot for him and I genuinely feel he owes us
As for Gareth Bale, it all sounds like a dream but we all felt that about Craig Bellamy; and look wherw that ended up...![]()

I don’t think he was. Travelled with the squad to the Liverpool game but wasn’t seen again until late March/early April? I’d say it was more the fact that management know he isn’t any good in a back three and I’d love to be proved wrong but I don’t see us in the top half of the table with him in our back four next season either. Had a good run under Harris but had a massively in form Morrison next to him.

I’m not sure it’s a good look for the club to have an anti-vax, covid conspiracy theorist as club captain.

But when he has played as part of a 2 centre back system he has looked very good since he came back and we're not blessed with natural leaders.
That said, if there is any mileage in the Bale rumours then I would think that's the captain situation sorted !!!!

Not so sure as your captain needs to be first choice on your team sheet every week. Big if, but if he came I would have thought he would need to be protected somewhat.

Ok fair enough. Management must trust him though to be offering him the captaincy (op).
