Does anyone have an idea what the state of play might be with him? From how I was reading the initial report it seemed quite likely a deal would get done and then no news at all for 4/5 days....not even on the message boards. It feels a few times this off season of a fairly concrete report to then seemingly be turned to dust quite quickly.

I know the Ipswich way is to suddenly announce deals which is a positive but just wondering if people are expecting this to be a deal that happens?

There are some posters on here and on Twitter with previous of getting things correct that have said this one could well happen soon. Probably the best we get for now.

What do you mean "then no news at all for 4/5...."?
You are missing a word. Do you mean "4/5 days"? if so, the rumours were on Saturday.

That twitter account seems very hit and miss.

But the silence from journos normally suggests something in it.

Yeah sorry meant to say days......4 days if you include Sat and today. Slight exaggeration to add the /5. Sorry.

True but he has some success. The fact that a few on here that also have previous are suggesting the same is encouraging

Whats not being said is more important at the moment.

I would say this is very likely to happen and will be on the Bench for Sheff United!

He played Friday night. Next game is on Monday, could well be done by then if we are serious on this one.

Interestingly they bought in Ola Solabakken at the start of the month, who is also a Right Winger, and a very good one - was very good at Bodo Glimt before his move to Roma, and don't think he'll there to be warming the bench.

Schrodingers transfer, until there's an official announcement or confirmation, the transfer can be thought of as being in a state of uncertainty—both "happening" and "not happening" simultaneously.

You're also faced with Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, in that when you don't know if a transfer is happening or not, and on the basis of a four minute video on Youtube with lots of repeats and different angles, you know with a high degree of certainty that the player is either brilliant or rubbish, but as soon as the transfer occurs you're not sure how good he's going to be for you, and if it falls through you have no idea how good he would have been.

Ahh, those YT videos, where the single bit of decent skill, play or goal is shown from every angle possible and accounts for over 80% of the 4 min long video.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking Egeli, I think he looks great. It's the way stuff is presented on YouTube, usually with a really crap music track behind it that gets 'up my goat'.

Would be extremely nice if we just got the report out of the blue from the Danish reporter then it goes quiet and the club release their welcome video tomorrow, rather than the endless back and forth. I’d think it might be a little easier from that part of the Europe but who knows.

I thought McKenna’s interaction with Stuart Watson who btw couldn’t pronounce the club, didn’t know which country the club was in or nationality of the player was quite interesting. KM certainly knew who he was and wasn’t blindsided by the question.

Yup, thought that was quite telling of McKenna when questioned on him on Sunday.

You'd imagine this is the sort of deal the club would be desperate to keep quiet. If we're trying to steal a march on clubs both domestically and regionally, then you want to create an environment which doesn't put other clubs on red alert that a talented youngster is a) up for moving b) the fee the selling club would accept and c) information on the interested parties. Even though the Danish reporter initially broke this last week, there's surely a world where the club turns to the local journos and says 'not this one quite yet chaps, we need it to progress before releasing details'.

We've already seen with Akpom that the trajectory of moves can quickly change...
