Connor Wickham

Name has obviously been mentioned in past transfer windows, but just seen this story- perhaps we could tempt him with a bid?

See Gus has been improving his diplomatic skills further

He said: 'For me, Connor’s situation is clear. He needs to sign a new contract or we let him go – we sell him. There is nothing in between.'

Would be great but way out of our price range I think.

BensGrandad · Aug 2, 2014

Would be the ideal Ulloa replacement but I doubt it is likely to happen.

no chance

IMO the best chance of getting Wickham was when we sold Bridcutt. A swap deal might have been possible.
Wickham's form at the end of last season will most likely have increased his market value beyond our budget.
If he goes it will almost certainly be to a PL club.

Wages....fee. .....would rule out perminant transfer...loan? Possible but who knows

After his end to season form I'd expect he want to remain in Pl now and there would be PL teams interested. Would be immense signing but can't see it I'm afraid.

Lurchy · Aug 2, 2014

He's reportedly on 25k a week at the moment and given his end of season form, you would expect him to want an increase on top of that.

Might be the type of player need, but will be a very long time before the club will compete financially for such players.

If he is debating whether to sign a new contract with PL Sunderland, he is nt going to sign for us unless he is desperate for a pay cut or wants to live by the seaside.

Gus loan us a player? If nobody else wants him maybe, otherwise, no chance.

It's possible Gus wasn't quite clear enough.

Drinks tab might be a problem

Connor Wickham blows £17,500 on bottle of champagne...

Dan Aitch · Aug 2, 2014

That's nearly as much as the Harvey's.

Luke93 · Aug 2, 2014

Can't see this happening.

No chance whatsoever.

Weststander · Aug 2, 2014

PL class and the much-improved Wickham could command £30k or £40k per week and play in the PL.

Why on earth would he sign for a Championship club, play Championship football week in week out, and earn say £10k per week?

Lurchy · Jul 30, 2015

On the verge of joining Palace for £10m, considering they've already loaned Bamford for the season, there must be at lest one on the way out:
