    Looks like we’re in talks with CB Samir from Udinese.

    Not their reserve either. A regular first team starter.

    This Samir fits our model more now physique wise:

    I'm hearing the Samir from my sources.

    Wasn't keen on him when he was married to Deidre.

    Well at least it's not one of their backups. Hopefully he's better than Troosty boy.

    Yeah, he's played every game for them this season except one in which he was banned for yellow card accumulation, and started every one of those:

    They'll be happy enough when they see the "£20m + Dennis + Sarr" fee.

    If we get him, then I think we’ll be playing 5 at the back.

    Kamara - Samir - Vida- Nkoulou - Kiko

    Looks quite decent to me.

    I can definitely see Kiko & Kamara as WB's.

    Nkoulou off to Udinese in exchange for Samir? No smoke without fire.

    This is fast moving. Sounds like he’s signed already. Signed until June 2025 apparently.

    Excellent business so soon in the transfer window. Hopefully this way we can give him a run out at Leicester, he can get his freak season-ending injury early doors and normal service will resume.

    Can he play in a two?

    Pretty sure the Bedwetters have had those on loan since at least last season.

    If that turns out to be the case, it does leave us extremely susceptible to injuries, though :confused:

    As was Troost-Ekong in the previous two seasons before coming to us.

    Does it? Sierralta, Cathcart and WTE all available as backups.

    Owners moving swiftly this window to address issues. Great stuff and hopefully will give us a fighting chance.

    He has played every game for Udinese you would imagine that there supporters would be pretty pissed off by this unless he is utter gash like Troost-Ekong.


    Edit as I had a look on the Forum over in Udine and they seem to be baffled and angry. Some quotes from them regarding the situation include...


    ''In the space of an afternoon we have removed a starter, who until now had missed only one, and who was also having a good season to send him to Watford''.

    ''Our best defender to their rescue''.

    ''If it is true, I wait to understand the reasons. Someone inquire''

    Yes, he's very popular with them. I think this is a very good signing for us and revenge for them taking Geri.
