Callum Marshall from West Ham has been given his first senior call up to the Northern Ireland squad, honestly think the lad is a goal machine with a massive future potentially.
16 goals and 3 assists in 16 games last season in the u18 league.
16 goals and 3 assists in 10 games in the first half of the u21 league this season.

Gone out on loan to West Brom who are pushing for the playoffs in the Championship and sounds like he's struggling at the moment. Unused sub a couple of times and the general consensus from West Brom fans so far has been that, when he has come off the bench, he doesn't look ready for this level physically (which is sort of the point of a loan tbf). Probably a similar scenario to Dane where League 1 would have made a lot more sense than a top half Championship team.
 
Let's do a deal for Restes, that young French goalie. Sign him but keep him on loan at Toulouse for another year, then get him a loan to the PL.

I'd also like us to go after that Bynoe-Gittens from Dortmund before he costs Sancho money. He and/or that Illing Jr kid from Juve. Could do worse to back up Udogie/Sonny at LWB/LW.

Jude's brother is worth a pop too.

That Gray lad from Leeds is out of reach, unless there's a deal to be made round Rodon and someone like Skippy.
Yeah, Gray would be really tough to do. Would love to see us have a go for him though even if it meant loaning him back a year + big fee & Rodon. Think he would be a quality 6 in our current system. Hard-working, great tackling, good passing and can ball-carry too. Suitable in all 3 of the midfield roles so would be able to play in a more free-form interchanging 3 if we ever wanted to use that.

Don't know much about the keeper, don't really follow the French league but not sure if we would spend that much on another overseas keeper with Vic already
 
Get Ademola Lookman from Atalanta in 2025 - solves out left flank problem if Werner bombs out

We looked at him when he was at Charlton (2017) before he went to Everton where he bombed and then went to Leipzig, where he bombed (after loans at Leicester and Fulham) so think his form at Atalanta reflects, at least partly, the fact its an easier league for him.

From memory good going forward but not good at tracking back.

Can't see he would be good/reliable enough to sign as a starter, but might be ok as a back up ? HG but our real shortage is Club Trained where u21 Santiago might be good enough, although would need a loan
