Transfer News and Rumors - January 2026

[pash]

Forgot about Sastre's contract. A shame, I kind of like him (but not enough to think we should re-sign him). Just looked it up and these are our other lapsing-in-June contracts:

• Lovren
• Taison (has an option for another year?)
• Ozdoev (currently on his option)
• Meite (also has an option?)
• Kedziora
• Baba
• Giakoumakis (option to buy)
• Vogliacco (option to buy)
• Sastre
• Ivanusec (option to buy)
• Bianco (option to buy)

My guess is that if Lucescu is still here, we re-sign Taison and Meite. Giakoumakis, I can't imagine us NOT buying him regardless of who's coach. Great signing there. Really hoping we move on Kedziora and Baba; thank you for your service, time to get younger.
