Summer transfer thread 2025

Hanley would be asking for quite a high wage, not for me. Charles Cook would presumably be quite cheap after not doing very well out in Belgium. If he hasn't lost a yard then we definitely need some options out wide.

Charles-Cook is a weird one. Can’t see him playing as a wingback and we don’t play wingers. Can’t see us changing from 3-5-2 (or 5-3-2 if you prefer) any time soon.

Not in ITK but heard strong rumours from someone connected to the club we are interested in Hanley. I mean I've slated the guy for years in a Scotland strip but I think he could do a job for us in the SPL/europe tbh.

I equally wouldn't be surprised if he ends up at Hearts. Thier kind of signing all over.

Please no!

He's a hearts signing written all over him. I think keeping Bushiri would feel like a new signing in itself.

Think he can play in the two. Him and Boyle as spilt strikers who are comfortable taking the ball out wide aswell.

He's a player we know can be good in the Scottish league. That normally works as a safe transfer strategy.

[Edinburgh Green]

Another 2 goals for Alfarela

[Paulie Walnuts]

Hanley would be a good signing I reckon.

So do I. I’m really surprised at the reaction to the rumour.

He’s rarely let Scotland down when he’s played. I don’t know why his club form has been so bad though.

Yip - experienced, international class defender. What's not to like 👌

Would be decent for us

[HFC93]

Mad that some posters think Hanley would be a bad signing. No brainer if we can get him.

[McGruber]

Think Hanley would be fairly solid for a season or two.

If he comes he would be joining us at about the same age Paul Hanlon was when we let him go due to him getting on - just an observation

[Donegal Hibby]

Hanley is to old 🤭

[Unseen work]

So people don’t want Grant Hanley or Ryan Porteous?

I’m buzzing with our new centre half if he’s better than them!

I’d rather we kept Rocky if possible 🤞

Would be our best option out of them all.

God knows how true those posters are but one saying he was offered more than he was at Preston and another saying Blackpool offered him 8k

Money down south is mental, can’t blame players up here when they head down

Hanley is a better player than Hanlon though, don't think that's even up for debate.

Hanley has 61 caps for Scotland and has played about 90 English Premier league games in his career, so he's clearly a far better player.

I never really wanted him or his corrie girlfriend actress Instagram loving girlfriend. Not worth the wages having someone like that coming in an being another Josh Vela.

[tonyrougier123]

Hanley is solid stroll it up here. No nonsense type yogi style. Would be interesting one.

[Mcbizz1998]

Surely we are looking at Ronan Hale? Should be a fairly easy deal to do with county you would think, and surely he would want to come to us - much bigger club, great city, more money and European football.

Sure people mentioned him before he moved to RC

[Fergus52]

Hanley can't even get a game in league 1 in England.

Massive drop off there form the championship, would fancy our current side to beat most teams in that league.

Yeah he's played a lot for Scotland recently, but he's also made several big mistakes in that time, the Poland penalty was criminal.

We should steer well clear

If it comes down to cash only then unfortunately teams like Huddersfield @Blackpool can beat us hands down

Sure he was linked with us before going to Rotherham

Athletic player who can play CDM or centre back

Did he make the mistakes though because he wasn't getting enough game time at his club. I would not rule him out completely but the backroom team would need to be able to assess if its age catching up with him or whether he still has 1 or 2 seasons in him at our level with regular game time. I think even with his lack of games and mistakes he is comparable if not better than our immediate competitors in the league outside of the old firm.

"Can't get a game" is a bit of a harsh assessment of his last 6 months. He was brought in as cover at a team that got 111 points (and well overspent for that league) and seemed rated enough to come in and play when needed.

He wouldn't be the at the top of my list but if he was to sign for us in place of Rocky for a year or two I could live with that. The guys played nearly 400 games alone for Blackburn Rovers and Norwich, some of that in the Prem. Not saying it automatically makes him a great player but all I've heard for years is how bad he is from Scotland fans and yet his reputation down south seems dependable enough for everyone to keep using him in some way.

This is behind the Hibs Observer pay wall but

Mykola Kuharevich wants Hibs return but makes frank admission | Hibs Observer

I wouldn't mind him come back at a reasonable fee. But it is good see that he knows where he wants his home to be. Hope you can pull it off Myko

All the best for the Future if you can't

250k to buy out his contract, especially if they want rid and he's saying Hibs or I sit tight and sign on a free.

Force their hand lad. Low ball them Hibs.

Pretty much where I am. Not expecting Efe Ambrose type performances but I’d suspect he’d be a very solid player at our level.
