LUFC Summer Transfer Rumour Thread 2026

[Hampshirewhites]

Yeah Brandt is. 43 caps for Germany. Can play anywhere in attacking midfield and as a no.8. 6ft 1 and versatile/creative. 57 goals, 70 assists in 307 games for Dortmund. 30 yrs old so wouldn't be much sell-on value, but on a free that wouldn't matter much anyway.

Openda's career has stalled at Juve but smashed it in Holland, France and Germany, was scoring for fun before his big move to Juve. More of a second striker type player. Fast as fuck. 26 yrs old. Cant remember where the link originally came from, but I think the YEP confirmed we were keen. Would be great competition for Okafor. We struggle without Okafor's pace and directness when he misses games imo.

Openda would be great if we went two up top

Any ITKers on Waccoe saying awt about Wilson and Brandt?

They reckon Wilson done. Bookies not taking bets anymore

Probably have to wait another few days to find out for sure

He's the one for me, Wilson. 17 goal contributions last season. Currently in his prime, just turned 29.

Brandt exciting too but Wilson is an established Prem creater. No worries about acclimatising.

I read the other day from a supposed Villa ITKer that Villa don't want to spend £100k+ a week on a squad player, which they would perceive him to be.
