Are we closing in on Ogbene? Are Rotherham ready to deal?

[JA News]

The pursuit of Chiedozie Ogbene seems a relatively long one given the links that go back as far as last summer but we are now at the stage that at least we will know what January brings one way or another by this time next week. It seems reasonably clear that the Swans made him […]

Anyone would think you had witnessed our transfer dealings in the past

I agree with Michael, I got a funny feeling he'll end up here by the end of the window. I think if he was going elsewhere it would have happened by now. Could be completely wrong mind you.

Rotherham are playing a similar game to us.
Difference being he's out of contract in 6 months.

I’d be happy if we finished the window with Ogbene, Drameh (loan), Whittaker, and Manning new deal with Pato and Obafemi out.

Well you can cross Drameh off already.

So would I but we’re both living on fantasy island.

We’re probably hoping to get him for like 500K

My take on it is this, he's the player we were a long way through the negotiations with, expecting Whittaker to be a quick sale hence the recall and to use that money, but it never came.

Why Martin said we could buy without selling, no idea, maybe not to be held to ransom my the likes of Rangers, but it's backfired it looks like.

Not sure he is tbh. Which makes the next question whether Ogbene in and Whittaker out + £1m in the bank is a better option...

 

[Swanseaborn]

Millwall just signed Duncan Watmore, potentially another rival for him dropping out

Probably not, but as Russy would rather wash his balls in aftershave than give Whittaker a decent chance we've been chasing him for months.
