Balogun, Steele, Button, Andone, BIssouma, Tau, Bernardo
All our new signings have been flagged on NSC and various media long before the club make a signing. Who are the likely sources of the leaks ? Is it our club employees, does it come from the clubs who employ the players we are after. Whoever is responsible, it must be a bloody nuisance to the recruitment team who want to hold the cards close to their chests when negotiating any deal.

Doesn’t look as if it has affected the outcomes

Surely the most likely sauce is the players agent, makes sense for their to be a bidding war, driving up transfer fee and also pushing up what a player can ask for in wages if he’s got a lot of clubs in the mix.

Agents, players themselves, friends and family of players, BHA insiders, selling club insiders.......don’t think there is a single source, depends on the deal.

Exactly this. They’d only be fed up if it fell through. That said Balogun wasn’t particularly flagged up and Tau has been a saga because of what went on with his club.

We are in a much better bargaining position now and leaked potential deals don’t damage us so heavily now. It’s good housekeeping to keep deals under wraps as a courtesy to clubs and players but our options are much wider now.

Just sen the Sky ins and outs and can't believe we've spent so little on so many players, hope it all works out, sure it will, but looks exciting for the coming season. Players appear to have been targeted specifically, but no comments until we've seen them play, still waiting for Locadia to take off, but i'm sure the coachng staff have his ear now.
