Sounds like a free agent CM if we're just waiting for them and nothing else. Not sure it would be put out in the open like that if they were still attached to a club.
No sensible player would join us unless they have bee out injured for some time (Dawkins) or are out of contract & in dire need of money.....which wont happen until the season starts & the players themselves see it a game of musical chairs & they don't want to be the last one standing. This usually means getting an unfit & injury prone twunk like Reeves.
Ben Amos on a season long loan looks to be a done deal.
We could also be losing Jake Cooper to Rangers for around £3.5m as Stevie G looks to bolster his squad.
Thankfully we brought in Murray Wallace from Scunthorpe earlier in the window.
How's Cooper suddenly worth over £3m, considering Reading were happy to let him go a year ago?
Jaap Stam being a very poor judge of a players ability, I'd imagine. Also the fact that, I believe, he's got a release clause around the £3.5m mark.
Cooper was immense for us last season. At 6'7" he's a huge threat at set pieces and I for one would be gutted if he went as can see him moving to the Premiership after another good season with us.
All that said, Sean Hutchinson was the stand out performer in our defence last year.
Fosu must be worth at least that. Reading gave him away.
Reading didn't give him away. They had no choice - Fosu was out of contract and declined the offer of a new contract, which meant Reading were entitled only to a development fee.

Bit bizarre for an unknown defender to have a £3.5m release clause in the first place...

Maybe our neighbours had some foresight and thought he was going to be a good player so slapped on the release clause.

He's hardly unknown. When he broke in to Readings first team he was being looked at by a few Premiership teams so others have been aware of him.
Jaap Stam enters stage right and all of a sudden Cooper found himself out of favour. Turns out that was hugely to our benefit.
