“ All Summer Transfer Rumours 2026 “ Below:

Some of us love the rumour mill when its in full flow, and we’ve been linked to a few players before the new window has even opened, so I thought I’d start a thread where we could keep all the players we get linked with in one thread

The latest name being reported Rocco Shein, a 22 year old Estonian international, who played 11 games this last season, with 2 goals and 3 assists

I dont know how reliable Transfer Markt is - it seems as though anyone can post

However, someone has put this up (in March though) saying we have enquired at least for Faton Ademi. Another center midfield who plays for Aachen

Estonian MF Rocco Shein from the Norwegian league as well being touted, €3-€5Million though I can't see us splashing that sort of cash around

Now this is a transfer i wouldn't be against, totally different profile to salech this kid is a proper fox in the box

BBM is being backed so not surprised to see us being linked with players that command a fee in the millions.

Don't know much about the other players, but Wareham scored a lot in League One this season.

Out of those clubs linked you would imagine due to the BBM factor, we would be the preferred destination for a promising young player looking for elite development.

West ham apparently in for lawlor , id be surprised if he goes to a championship rival

West Ham can't do any business until they sell the likes of Bowen, Fernandes and Summerville because of the financial issues they have. Parachute payments don't even help them because they took a loan out against future Premier League TV money, which they obviously now don't get.

Anyway I don't see him leaving this summer unless someone offers stupid money, that certainly won't be from West Ham.

A few reports of WHam wanting Dylan Lawlor with FLW stating his ‘current value’ as c.£1.5m ‘with the potential’ to reach £20-25m ‘once he proves his potential in the Championship’ :laughing6:

I can’t see him going anywhere this season, as he progresses under BBM, unless an ‘incredible’ bid comes in from a top 10 Premier League (or European) club :ayatollah:

by **Welshman in CA** » Fri Jun 05, 2026 2:20 pm

He certainly isn't going anywhere for 1.5 million anything not even Cadbury Creme eggs & I've heard they're not what they used to be.

?????

West Ham are supposedly perusing a deal for cardiff city and wales defender Dylan Lawlor

Bayern Munich are also monitoring the player

by **Cardiff_CPT** » Fri Jun 05, 2026 4:08 pm

I hope we don't rush into a small priced sale for a prospect, like we did with Rambo.

Out of those clubs linked you would imagine due to the BBM factor, we would be the preferred destination for a promising young player looking for elite development.

You'd like to think so wouldn't you but the likelihood is he'll go to whichever team pays the highest transfer fee and wages.

But he's not for sale at the moment so unless there is a ridiculous bid for him he's not going anywhere & it's just paper talk. But people have the head clown just selling him to whoever makes any bid just because it it's how they think.

7 million is the amount doing the rounds on social media tonight , I think we would be crazy to sell Dylan for that price

If he got to 10 million Tan might be tempted to say let him go or he may tell Murphy sell him and use the money to fund other transfers,
but thats a guess on my part,but after last season, having to dive into the academy that could be likely but foolish,hold on tight to him this season at least would be best.

by **worcester_ccfc** » Sat Jun 06, 2026 10:57 am

My opinion is that Lawlor won't leave this summer.

Also, BBM will be backed. That's obvious.

If do sell must put in at least a 50% sell on clause because he potentially is a £50m+ valued player in future

I agree about a sell on clause but I’ve never heard of a 50% clause.
Maybe wrong but that would be a hard sell to the buying club for sure.

Lawlor started 27 matches and came on as a sub in 5. Out of those 27 appearances he came off 9 times before full time.

So across the full league one season he played 90 minutes 18 times.

In those appearances he excelled and we can see his talent. But to spend big on a player with such limited date, presumably it’s only top 6 clubs who’d take such a risk?

by **worcester_ccfc** » Sat Jun 06, 2026 11:52 am

I think Man City have a 40% sell on clause for Robertson so when we do sell Lawlor, hopefully we can put in something similar.

West Ham showing interest in Cardiff City Star / Captain?

Apparently West Ham are interested in a number of young Cardiff City defenders and also hold an interest in their Welsh international midfielder Rubin Colwill.

Dylan Lawlor latest.

West Ham interest very real

Dylan Lawlor is on their list

Champions League, Europa League & multiple Champ teams really like him

Scouts from two Euro clubs at Wales game last week

Cardiff's resolve will be seriously tested this summer

by **bluebirdoct1962** » Tue Jun 09, 2026 3:18 pm

Apparently we’ve put a bid in for Cammy Devlin the Hearts socceroo mates with Alex Robertson. Bolton and Millwall are also sniffing around the defensive midfielder known for the way he can break up play and his crunching tackles. Compared to Scott Brown up north.

If this is all correct (and there's no reason to believe it isn't) what would people accept as an acceptable amount if they came in with an offer? 5, 10, 20 million? No amount whatsoever this summer? Everyone has their price.

I don't think we should be entertaining any offer below 10 million as a minimum. Do I think he's worth that? Not yet but he could be worth a lot more in the future.

I said £15m with a sell on clause on another thread, I think that's fair because he has the potential to be worth a lot more than that.

It's also not a huge figure when you consider Jude Bellingham was sold to Dortmund for £25m when he was a 17-year-old at Birmingham. Went on to be sold to Real Madrid for £100m.

Not saying that Lawlor is as talented as Bellingham but it's an example I've used to justify £15m being fair.
