Summer 2021-22 transfer thread

[bingo70]

Hmm any signings today? Wonder if it’s going to the last day. Still need a striker and a CB.

Not seen us linked with another attacker yet

I love a rumour more than most but it’ll be good if they can pull a signing out nobody has heard of before though.

Bit of an anti climax when you sign someone you already know is coming in.

In terms of the PR they’re probably better waiting until tomorrow to announce signings as folk get excited about signings on transfer deadline day and if it doesn’t happen people go radge at the club Twitter person.

Aye I agree. Rather something left field.

Hopefully leaving it for tomorrow for the banter

[whiskyhibby]

Doig to Roma. 16 million with add ons. Barisic to Hibs as a makeweight but dependant on a medical as he has a twitchy left gonad. Heard it on Central Hibs. Or somewhere.


:aok:

[Nevi_SOL]

I’d imagine this late in the window it would take 6-7 million for KN to leave, especially if we value him at £5 million. But we’ll have very little time to replace him

Exactly, we're going to have to pay over the odds to bring in a replacement so anyone coming in for him should have to pay over the odds.

[Still Smiling]

Just had a couple of emails saying Doig to Sevco for £4m if Barasic passes medical at Roma! Any other info flying about?

Pretty sure we've already told clubs we value him at 5 mil. Don't see why we'd accept 4 from them. Also surely Barasic isn't going to Roma?! He's not that good.

If true there should also be a 33 percent sell on clause We had to pay that to st Mirren when we sold Mcginn so should make sure we have that as well
With the Norwegian guy lined up that would probably be best we could get
Will Rangers pay that though four million should be up front

False

[cubehindthegoal]

Having supported and watched Hibs for many a year, we are actually doing ok the last few of years or so … it will always be a roller coaster, you know … even those with money (eg, Celtic, the new Rangers, Man Utd, etc) have ups and downs rw want to their financial status. We are on an upward slope of the coaster … worry less and enjoy more my fellow Hibees. Remember 2016 … wasn’t that long ago … relatively.

[cubehindthegoal]

False

Throw the The Rangers defender in on the deal and it’s a starting point to negotiate.

[cubehindthegoal]

… and up the £4m at the same time.

Hope this is a false one.

[Nicho87]

£4 million plus 25% sell on

Plus Katic and I’d even take barker on loan with no wages on hibs.

If that’s up front then that’s a pretty phenomenal deal. We’ve clearly planned for Doig to leave this window so take the £4m and the covering defender we need for the season.

We already have a very good starting 11. While we might get someone in to move ahead of those already there, it’s rather unlikely without a decent bit of cash. Our bench due to injuries is short, especially at centre half and centre forward. If a striker is worse than Nisbet but better than Gullan surely that improves us, if a defender is worse than Hanlon but better than mcgregor, that improves us.

[Greencore]

Doig isnt signing for rangers ffs😂😂😂 they couldn't afford 4 million and we value him at 5 million.

Frustration probably getting the better of me at this stage, but to only be getting in the CB cover we've been after all summer, in on transfer deadline day for me is disappointing. Totally respect that the McCart situation was outwith our control but frustrating nonetheless

Rest of the squad I'm delighted with. New deal for Boyler and Magennis is like a néw signing. JDH has been a fantastic signing so far too. Add some attacking power and we've done well overall

Plenty to feel positive about though

With Ronaldo coming in, James may as well just sit warming a bench for the rest of the season, he's a very good young player but not good enough to take Man U to the next level.

Man Utd signed him for c.£15m 2 years ago. Is he a significantly better player now? Nope. Just shows that the badge on the shirt has as big an effect on a players value as anything else.

A month ago I’d take that. But unless we have a quality replacement lined up and ready to sign I’d say it’s now too late in the window.

I genuinely do think KN will benefit as a player from another season with us though. If he can score as many goals as last season, now that he’s a known quantity in this league, it will prove his quality as a striker and he will get some very attractive offers from other clubs.

Agree with this however I’m not convinced even if he does we will get any more than 5m for him. I’d take him bringing us success and going for no more in a year to be honest.

Even him going in January when we will have Mueller in and Doidge back could be tolerated, but losing him tomorrow would have disaster written all over it

I'm confident/hopeful that's not gonna happen though!

[Hibernia&Alba]

We are so much about greedy footballers, but Willian has voluntary cancelled his Arsenal contract, which would have earned him another £20 million (£240,000 per week) so he can return to Brazil, taking a 70% pay cut in the process. I'm sure very few players would have done that, preferring to sit on their erse and count their money instead.

True.

But he did get a signing on fee of £10m and earned that in that last season where he may as well have just sat on his arse so he did OK for one year of non work!

And he was on 240 000 pounds a week. Hardly a paupers wage :greengrin

If he'd donated half his wealth to say a Christian charity that supports the poor and impoverished I'd have been very impressed but the fact he's decided to go back to his home country with a massive warchest of money doesn't to say the least.

Nisbet on international duty and away to Denmark, so think highly unlikely he is going anywhere.

[Unseen work]

I know I shouldn’t be but I can’t help feel a little bit underwhelmed by our business so far. Whilst we’ve definitely added good players a lot of them are based on potential.

I think it’s partly because I thought the way Ross, Mathie and Gordon spoke we’d be really looking to take things to the next level and sign players to do that. A lot was said about adding quality when you’re already strong.

Dan McKay - Big fan of his based on time at ICT but will take a period to settle in.

JDH - Brilliant and a missing piece of the jigsaw.

Scott - Loan. Was really impressed with him at Motherwell but probably a bit similar to McKay because of his age and returning from injury, he’s also not played as an out
and out forward much.

Mueller - Obviously he sounds brilliant but no one knows what we’re getting and he won’t join until January. The few games I’ve watched though I’ll be honest and say I don’t know how he fits into our system as he seems to play right wing.

Obviously Macey and Murphy joined permanently too but we them them last season.

I think I was just expecting a bit more of a wow signing or two, someone that would give that clear ‘statement of intent’. Not for a second suggesting those that have came in aren’t good as I think they are, and have the potential to be really good.

But guys like Kerr and McCart were linked and I think going and getting folk like that would have been brilliant and really strengthened us.

Of course it seems likely that Tonnesson, Mitchell and Wood will be joining but again they’re quite young (clearly not Mitchell) and you don’t know exactly what you’re getting. Wood sounds like a real coup in fairness but not many first team games. I was hoping for a slightly more experienced centre half especially when you consider we have Doig and Porteous back there and we need to be more solid.

I suppose the biggest plus point for the club is being able to keep Boyle, Nisbet, Doig, Porteous etc which they have done so far and deserve massive credit for. Especially giving Boyle a new deal, it really is fantastic business and shows how far we’ve came.

They might be able to pull off something on the final day but I’m not going to get my hopes up, I don’t want it to sound like a criticism but I just think we need something else, especially up front.

Our squad is good overall especially when you consider those to come back from injury but for me I want guys to come in that put real pressure on the pretty settled starting eleven, so far only JDH is doing that and now Scott because Doidge and lately Murphy got injured.

Hopefully the club are able to jiggle a couple of things around tomorrow and get real quality in. Like I said I’m not going to criticise them yet as Tonnesson and Wood could prove to be brilliant signings.

I fully expect guys like Brydon, Bradley, Gullan and Campell to go out on loan. I think Dabrowski too if we do sign Mitchell.

I think part of my frustration if you like is because I think we’re very close to something special, I just want that final push to get us there. But like I’ve done since Ross has walked in I trust him and will continue to do so, he’s been spot on with just about everything.

I think we need to consider that in the not too distant past we’d have been having to make signings to replace our best players. If we get through the window with Nisbet, Boyle, Doig, and Porto then these are players that are worth millions that we’ve held on to.

Much better to keep those players than to lose and replace them, imho.

[Greenio]

Could be wrong but Scott Allans last Instagram story (a pic of him on his own clapping the support) says a lot

[Since452]

I think Nisbet's overall game has improved since he was away at the Euros. He's gone up a level. He's a 5 million pound player at the very least. I'd be very surprised if he left this late in the day though.

[Winston Ingram]

If we can get a replacement, £5m is too big a fee to turn down for Nisbet.

[Winston Ingram]

No Jim White this year.

I think Nisbet's overall game has improved since he was away at the Euros. He's gone up a level. He's a 5 million pound player at the very least. I'd be very surprised if he left this late in the day though.I dont think he will leave, however thats the perils, or the excitement of the last day of the transfer window. If clubs lose their players they will want replacements and its no secret that a few clubs have been keeping tabs on Nisbet, and others for that matter such as Doig and Porteous.

If the inevitable happens, which again I doubt will, then I would hope that JR and his team have been working on replacements. Going to be a nervy or exciting few hours I think

[Since90+2]

There's no chance we are negotiating with a buying club for Nisbet for terms that are acceptable to both parties, Nisbet agrees his new contract, has his medical whilst in Denmark on international duty and we then get in a suitable replacement and do his medical ect all in about 16 hours.

He won't be going anywhere is my best guess.

[flash]

Thanks for the warning.

[Unseen work]

Nisbet hasn’t travelled to Denmark yet.

Decision to be made this morning as he is a doubt.

Never know the injury doubt might just be a way of saying we’ll see what interest is in him and if it likely he’ll move.

It would be near impossible to replace him on the last day of the window, 4/5 million or not.

[GreenCastle]

I know I shouldn’t be but I can’t help feel a little bit underwhelmed by our business so far. Whilst we’ve definitely added good players a lot of them are based on potential.

I think it’s partly because I thought the way Ross, Mathie and Gordon spoke we’d be really looking to take things to the next level and sign players to do that. A lot was said about adding quality when you’re already strong.

Dan McKay - Big fan of his based on time at ICT but will take a period to settle in.

JDH - Brilliant and a missing piece of the jigsaw.

Scott - Loan. Was really impressed with him at Motherwell but probably a bit similar to McKay because of his age and returning from injury, he’s also not played as an out
and out forward much.

Mueller - Obviously he sounds brilliant but no one knows what we’re getting and he won’t join until January. The few games I’ve watched though I’ll be honest and say I don’t know how he fits into our system as he seems to play right wing.

Obviously Macey and Murphy joined permanently too but we them them last season.

I think I was just expecting a bit more of a wow signing or two, someone that would give that clear ‘statement of intent’. Not for a second suggesting those that have came in aren’t good as I think they are, and have the potential to be really good.

But guys like Kerr and McCart were linked and I think going and getting folk like that would have been brilliant and really strengthened us.

Of course it seems likely that Tonnesson, Mitchell and Wood will be joining but again they’re quite young (clearly not Mitchell) and you don’t know exactly what you’re getting. Wood sounds like a real coup in fairness but not many first team games. I was hoping for a slightly more experienced centre half especially when you consider we have Doig and Porteous back there and we need to be more solid.

I suppose the biggest plus point for the club is being able to keep Boyle, Nisbet, Doig, Porteous etc which they have done so far and deserve massive credit for. Especially giving Boyle a new deal, it really is fantastic business and shows how far we’ve came.

They might be able to pull off something on the final day but I’m not going to get my hopes up, I don’t want it to sound like a criticism but I just think we need something else, especially up front.

Our squad is good overall especially when you consider those to come back from injury but for me I want guys to come in that put real pressure on the pretty settled starting eleven, so far only JDH is doing that and now Scott because Doidge and lately Murphy got injured.

Hopefully the club are able to jiggle a couple of things around tomorrow and get real quality in. Like I said I’m not going to criticise them yet as Tonnesson and Wood could prove to be brilliant signings.

I fully expect guys like Brydon, Bradley, Gullan and Campell to go out on loan. I think Dabrowski too if we do sign Mitchell.

I think part of my frustration if you like is because I think we’re very close to something special, I just want that final push to get us there. But like I’ve done since Ross has walked in I trust him and will continue to do so, he’s been spot on with just about everything.

I think this is a fair post and I share similar views.

JDH is the only player to come in recently and take a previous players position to improve us.

Before Doidge was injured we were short of a striker - we have replaced him with Scott - but like Murphy doesn’t seem to score many goals going by his history. Of course time will tell but we rely on Boyle and Nisbet a lot currently.

Magennis has felt like a new signing also but we really need to add an aerial threat up front and someone to hold the ball up. Think Doidge / Holt type who scores some goals.

We need a right back also - Cadden isn’t a right back and while I’m not saying drop McGinn who is 2nd choice right back? Last season it was Gray but he’s retired.

Due to injures to Hallberg, Doidge, Cadden and Murphy I know it makes it harder as you don’t want a massive expensive squad. Maybe this is why short term loans have been used. I also trust the club but would love it if we added another starter or 2 and kept our current group together.

[truehibernian]

Buckle yourselves in today, think it’ll be a day of many emotions with a fair bit of activity in and out. Quite exciting too.

[flash]

Some windows are more about holding what you have which we have done so far.
Doyle-Hayes has been outstanding and a fully fit Magennis is like a new signing too.
Add a central defender today (Wood), a striker and maybe a wee surprise and it would be a pretty good window for my cash.
Gullan, Bradley, Campbell and Dabrowski could all be away either permanently or on loan too.
Sadly I reckon Scott Allan could be off too but that's just a feeling I have.
Going to be one of the more unpredictable deadline days I think.

[Jim44]

Don’t take it the wrong way, but I hope you’re completely wrong and we have a massive, boring non event with little or no movement, except maybe the odd loan, in or out.

[Heisenberg]

Think it’ll be Wood and Mitchell in and a few fringe/younger players out today. Not sure we’ll get another striker.

Good analysis but it's a bit like JB posting his This Is How It Feels when there is still 10mins to play! :wink: We could still get a late goal, but could also still lose a goal with no time to get one back, or it could end up as it is. Using TIHIF as an analogy for our business this window I feel we are 1-0 up at the mo but with the opposition posing a threat.

I’d be very surprised if we lost anybody at this stage and Wood should be a more than adequate addition to our squad. On paper it would look a very good squad with the return of injured players also.

[Greenworld]

We hear a lot about lists of names and how if we don't get the first we move on down the list.
You've got to believe Nisbet is somewhere on a few teams lists and Hibs will get a offer.
Like most now I hope not 5 million or not ive changed my tune and hope he stays for 1 more season .

Agree.

I think we still need another centre half and centre forward and if we don’t get them then we’ll be really short up top especially.

That being said, managing to hold on to every one of our players from last season other than Irvine who imo wouldn’t be starting anyway due to the signing of JDH is a better outcome than any of us could have expected 3 months ago. With that in mind, it’s been a very good transfer window overall imo.

No stars leaving, a few players brought in to provide cover, a couple of folk maybe going out on loan = almost perfect transfer window in total.

Other than that though I’d agree.

I would say, on the basis of the last ten years or so, that it will likely be a couple of minor signings then a few players released or sent out on loan.

Rarely, if ever, can I remember Hibs losing one of their prized assets on deadline day and subsequently lots of signings falling into place like dominoes.

It is, of course, a new owner, there may be a different transfer strategy but I just don’t see Hibs being that reckless unless somebody offers silly money for a player.

We definitely need a striker. If Nisbet needs to sit out we don’t have anyone.

Scott isn’t a goal scorer. He’ll play a part for us, but we cannae rely on someone who doesn’t have a history of scoring goals to score us goals.

He got 3 last season, in 27 games, and 2 of those were in that English Football League Trophy cup that nobody cares about.

I would say the January window is about holding onto players mid season.

This window is much longer and we have had plenty time to improve the team. I think we have improved in areas but I’m not convinced we have added enough yet plus the injuries haven’t helped us.

We saw at the start of the season how we were looking but with Hanlon, Newell and Doidge being injured a spine has been ripped out the team.

The one thing it does mean that it gives others to step up but I always think a strength of a team is how strong the bench is. Currently our bench isn’t strong enough.

Given we have a derby coming up I really, REALLY hope we don't sell any of the big hitters.

Ah well, we can pick him up on loan next summer when it hasn't worked out for him.

[Col2]

Swansea just sold a striker to Bournemouth.

This is going to be a long day.

[Hibs90]

For me, Nisbet, Doig and Porto for that matter must stay. It is surely far too late in the window to replace them with the quality needed.

Porto has impressed me this season in particular, seems more vocal, mistakes are few and far between, more composed overall, and his passing has improved and he is starting to prove to be an integral part of the team. The fact he looks really good, yet there is still a lot of room to improve just shows you how good he can be. He looks like a leader on the park, and a future Hibs captain if I ever saw one. We must try to get him signed up to an extension ASAP, and I'm honestly baffled why he hasn't been called up for the Scotland squad for these games. Those who don't rate him, will see the difference if he is ever out the team.

We needed another striker prior to Doidge injury and Scott signing, so we should definitely be in for one today, and if Nisbet somehow leaves that would be a disaster. I guess a left back depends on whether Doig goes or stays, I don't think any Hibs fan would begrudge him a move that earned the club 5 million quid and a chance to prove himself and grow as a player at a higher level, you could argue the same for Nisbet but he would be much more difficult to replace as proven goalscorers do not come cheaply. Maybe someone on the left to replace Murphy as whether folk like it or not, he does seem to be stop-start in terms of games.

I hope it's a relatively dull day, with nobody leaving.

If you were in Gorgieland, the very last guy you'd want to be facing in the upcoming derby would be Leigh Griffiths.

I'm not saying anything about his baggage or all the reasons (valid) that folk have for being unsure of how wise a signing Leigh would be.

But if you are turning up at Tynecastle at the derby and Hibs get a free kick 25 yards out, I think Nisbet doesn't trouble the keeper while Griffiths scores a peach.

If Doig goes we have someone lined up and it gives us more scope to bring in others
Really don’t think we can let Nesbit go this window if we are serious about wanting to finish third

Murphy's continuing injury problems are quite annoying, 3-4 weeks and then injured.

If you were in Gorgieland, the very last guy you'd want to be facing in the upcoming derby would be Leigh Griffiths.

I'm not saying anything about his baggage or all the reasons (valid) that folk have for being unsure of how wise a signing Leigh would be.

But if you are turning up at Tynecastle at the derby and Hibs get a free kick 25 yards out, I think Nisbet doesn't trouble the keeper while Griffiths scores a peach.

Not that its a reason to sign him on its own but they’d be terrified of him if we signed him.

He’s got a brilliant record against them.

Not half as annoying for us as they likely are for him.

[Greenio]

Swansea just sold a striker to Bournemouth.

This is going to be a long day.

Will be a long day for Hearts fans too with all the interest in their top international players.....oh wait.

[GloryGlory]

He looked liked he picked a calf strain on Saturday? Maybe aggrivated it?

That's what I was thinking - a precaution not to take him to Denmark when maybe he is touch and go to play. Better to keep him here so he fully recovers for the other two games.

Could see how disappointed he was on Saturday.

Given Ross mentioned it he probably realises he can’t rely on him so it’s just another factor in the mix
It’s starting to feel like They expected Doig to go and have a replacement lined up and the surplus would of allied Ross to do other things including up Nisbet swages
Presumably without Doig going hard choices have to be made
With McKay not managing yet to break into team and Wright a bit part player Murphy injury was last thing he needed But yet was frustratingly predictable

I’d take him till January if Nisbet goes.

:agree: I'd say it was extremely unlikely. Get the boy Wood in and another forward and i'd be pretty happy with our squad. In fact i'd be delighted with it.

They’ll have no bother staying up with him in the team. Might even challenge for top 6.

It's looking a poor piece of business from Hibs, only 19 appearances last season, brought to be one of our key players and will be one if not the top earner. On his day he's extremely good but no guarantee over his fitness.

I reckon Dundee would have been in and around top 6 anyway. This could be enough to tip them over the edge.

26 games last season, already 8 this one, and you've no idea on his wages.

Frustrating yes, but he is quality and been good so far this season. Injuries happen.

Likewise.

Hopefully we’ll see Hearts lose a lot of points to Dundee. Two strikers that love a goal against them up there now.

They'll be closer to 12th than 6th I think. 2 points from 4 games is a bad start too.

Waste of money imo. Flashes of skill but rarely end product. Always plays with his head down, seems disinterested to me. Trudged off the park on Saturday, never looked up at the stands once, just straight down the tunnel.

They do happen but it’s hard to argue that he’s a tad injury prone? I reckon he’ll be moved on at the end of this season.

Didn't say I wasn't a fan, he's a very good intelligent footballer but his lack of appearances is becoming a worry and looks a poor bit of business, JR also sounds a bit frustrated with it too.

[bringbackbenny]

Genuinely don't see this, I'd always thought he was one of the few with his head up. Opinions eh:greengrin

[JimBHibees]

That is what it looked like didn't really buy the cramp line. May have aggravated it if so get his erse out the squad so a chance he can be fit for Derby. Could also of course be he may be transferred. If so Celtic will come in imo.

I was meh a couple weeks ago. But the closer it's got to the deadline, and after hearing the news today, I'm changing my mind a bit. Probably more of wanting what we can't have. But I think he'll score goals in this league, regardless of who he plays for.

[GreenNWhiteArmy]

I'd have taken Griff, not at the expense of Nisbet though

I wouldnt be against signing the LB we're linked with and pushing Doig further up

100% need another forward option

[HibsGW]

Murphy is a great technical footballer but he’s injured an awful lot and doesn’t really provide any goals or assists which is what wingers are measured on. I’m not too fussed either way about him, he’s alright but we could probably do better.

[J-C]

25 games last season.

Was going by league appearances but yes 26 in total.

[flash]

Tommy Wright saying they have two lined up but are waiting for selling clubs to finalise replacements before confirming deals.
As one of them appears to be Gullan that would confirm we have a striker arriving today.

[MWHIBBIES]

They do happen but it’s hard to argue that he’s a tad injury prone? I reckon he’ll be moved on at the end of this season.

He has struggled a bit yeah. I don't think that means he'll always get injured though. Hopefully works itself out.

I doubt anyone is making any decisions for next season already.

[Col2]

Griffiths signing for Dundee makes me angry.

We really need another striker.

We better sign someone today.

A 19 year old (talented but untried) centre half after pissing about re McCart and a 3rd choice goalie will not be good enough. JR has asked for a defensive and striker additions for over a month (before Doidge injury).

Griffiths would have been a game changer.

Exactly. We're looking around for a striker and Griff was available. WTF are we playing at? :confused:

This version of Griffith's is more likely to make headlines for Hibs off the pitch instead of on it, added to the fact he's clearly not fit I can't say I'm exactly bothered

[Coco Bryce]

Just been sent a photo of Leigh with a Dundee top on.

[Hibernian Verse]

If Griffiths was worth having, a bigger club than Dundee would have come calling. Us, Aberdeen (with his mate Broony), Hearts could've offered a loan deal, even Dundee Utd or Motherwell. English League 1 or lower champ sides too.

Time to move on.

Griffiths of 5 years ago would have been a game changer, Griffiths of today is a gamble at best

[Northernhibee]

Yet another example of people angry we didn’t sign a player from five years ago rather than considering who the player is now.

Dundee can have him. We need players who could become better than the level of Celtic, not their fourth choice rejects.

The player now scored more goals per minute than near enough every other player in the league last year.

People know he’s not Griffiths that scored 31 league goals in a season on the way to winning the title. Nobody is thinking Dundee are getting that. But players that aren’t wanted by Celtic aren’t automatically not good enough for Hibs.

Griffiths had a season last season which suggests to me he’d be less of a gamble on the pitch than players from lower league Scotland/England, abroad or loans from EPL teams.

Disappointed, I hope we don’t regret not picking Griffiths up. A risk free loan and worth a try. He’ll score goals wherever he is.

[GreenNWhiteArmy]

Former Celtic defender Jack Hendry is in talks to sign with Club Brugge from Oostende. Club Brugge are in Manchester City’s Champions League group and the deal could be worth up to 10m euros.
The defender is currently with the Scotland squad and spent season on loan at Oostende before making the move permanent this summer. He is due to fly out to Denmark this afternoon with Steve Clarke’s side.

That's some development from the boy at Celtic a couple of years ago.

Think we'd prefer a player that we can relay on being able to play 90 minutes every week and that ain't Griffiths

[RoscoHibby]

Would’ve loved to have griffiths back, the boys 30, hardly an old has been…

All this ‘5yrs ago griff’ has no weight in my eyes. He gets a run of games and peak fitness will come. He has a wand of a left foot, that’ll never leave you. But we make and miss so many chances, someone lethal in the box (and anywhere within 35yds) could’ve been a real game changer for us.

The fact he’s now at Dundee, you’d like to think we could’ve gotten him if we’d wanted…hope JR has a rabbit still to be pulled today….🙄

[Ozyhibby]

Glad we were not interested in Griffiths. People saying he go more goals per minute is great but if you can only get fit for one or two games a season then it’s no good to us. Add to that the level of unprofessionalism he would be bringing to our dressing room and we have done well to avoid.
