Summer 25 Transfer Links

I am concerned that Ekitike is no better at all and we would seriously be better off keeping Darwin than blowing £85m on him.

Ekitike has a lot of potential in several areas, but is incredibly frustrating in the finishing department.

Darwin Núñez comparisons (in that sense) are totally understandable, as would Raheem Sterling comparisons. With some players you can drill movement patterns into them so that they are always arriving at the back post for easier chances (Pep Guardiola with Raheem Sterling) but I'd really rather we were looking at lads who had a few different finishes that they can consistently deliver.

If Slot can coach him into being a better finisher then fair enough - but otherwise it seems an inefficient use of resources.
