| Carlos Espi 08:19 - Jul 27 with 10188 views | muccletonjoe | Hilarious watching this unfold yesterday, because no one knows where he is going , or if it is even a premier league club and that includes Alex Jones. |  | | |  |
| Carlos Espi on 08:25 - Jul 27 with 6496 views | TRUE_BLUE123 | Even crazier that a Marca journalist with 500k followers tweeted he was coming to Ipswich only to delete it almost immediately. Worlds shortest saga. |  |

I can't imagine he'll be coming. As others have said, the EADT will no doubt have gotten some information from the club in order for Alex Jones to have come out with such a strong, confident denial; his credibility will take a massive hit if we do sign him. |  |

He did cover himself with a 2nd tweet "things can change" |  |

What's the point of posting anything at that rate! '... and now the weather forecast, there might be rain later, or there might not'. |  |

In my opinion we've already signed him, but moved him on to an unknown third club already, and it's that club which is insisting on the smoke and mirrors in order to protect a deal they have to move him back to Levante. I could be wrong. |  |

Very similar to the forecast for yesterday in Ipswich! |  | |  |

Matteo Moretto (The Marca journalist) works closely with Fabrizio Romano who tends to be incredibly accurate on transfers. As someone that watches way too much football, Espi is the calibre of player where if the player shows any interest in joining Ipswich, you do whatever you can to try and get a deal done. The Clara Vista ownership links are interesting but I would be shocked if we were able to sign Espi given he and Samu are expected to be leading the line for the Spanish national team in years to come! Such a bizarre mini saga. |  | |  |

I still don't think this is the end to that story. I'd completely forgotten that Levante are now controlling owners of Levante. Selling their star striker to us not only helps their prized club asset but gives Levante some capital to work with also.... I do think Liam Delap is a good selling point for us going after players like Espi. 1-2 good years with us and a CL club comes calling. |  | |  |

Yep. Saw some people say we should be after an experienced striker instead. That wouldn't be a bad thing but if the choice is between someone like Awoniyi for example or Carlos Espi it is an absolute no brainer. He could be a star. |  |

| Carlos Espi on 12:10 - Jul 27 with 4181 views | Ralphinho | fingers crossed we can get this over the line before a bigger club comes circling. The silence is deafening and I'm happy to keep it that way if it means the deal gets done. P.S. Phil, feel free to give me an upvote or downvote to suggest how close I am to the mark haha. |  |

There is. But if you sign someone like Espi he isn't coming to sit on the bench for Ipswich. |  |

That was very very weird from a very well respected journalist ... And now silence! Equally strange for Alex to come back with such a dismissive response that suggests it can only have come from the clubs hierarchy. But the 'things might change' tweet after suggests not |  | |  |

AJ potentially told to pour water on the link by the club.. |  |

I think the fact that Phil hasn't uttered a word on this link also speaks volumes... |  | |  |

Equally weird! Who can forget the famous EADT vs TWDT on the Szmodics transfer two years ago. |  | |  |

Maybe the cold water was at the behest of the club and the follow up was just about protecting his reputation a bit. In case it does happen. |  | |  |

Definitely something weird afoot with this - two relatively ITK accounts (Fabrizio's mate and a local Valencia sports network) have posted and deleted our interest which I think would be a weird thing to do if we weren't interested. Wonder if something is happening behind the scenes as a bit of a coup if we get it done. Worth noting that Bologna seem to be the Italian opponent and they are set to sign Dovbyk so may not need Espi. |  | |  |
