Kion Etete will leave on loan before the window closes.
Exeter and Notts County amongst the clubs interested.

Not too bothered about that but ideally I think we need to sign another striker to replace him.
Perhaps a Premier League youngster on loan?

Showed signs of being a very good player but chances under Bulut’s style of play were limited. I still see a player in there and hope a period away will allow him to find himself and his form as a striker

Agreed
I can see a player in there. Would like to see how he did with a regular place under Riza. But withe position we’re in, a loan makes sense I guess. Good luck to him.

I like Etete and hope that he still has a future with us. He's really improved his physicality which I thought initially was lacking. Just hasn't been allowed to kick on due to injury.
If he can get 20 games under his belt somewhere it will do him the world of good and he'll come back a better player...leaves us a little short though up top.

Not going to miss him on the pitch. Good luck to him

Feel for him in a way.
He tries and tries but ultimately his job as a striker is to score goals.
He struggled at Northampton and has only scored 6 goals here.
Did ok return wise at Cheltenham.
He has been improving his overall game and there MAY be a player in there somewhere, but I don’t think we will see it.

Absolute dire league 1 at best

Total waste of money and wages.
2nd best to Kanga.

There's a good player there, been very unlucky starting in a poor side that hopelessly lumped the ball up to him and injured when we were crying out for someone like him.
He needs to work on his hold up play but he will come good in my opinion.

He won’t be missed at all. A waste of time. 45 minutes in 7 months and all those wages. A disgrace. Get rid.

Don't think this means that.
Salech and Simic have been brought into the squad, Kanga and Etete out.

Would have liked him to go on loan but with a 1 year contract extension. He does well then value is retained. We did pay 500k to spurs.
If he can stop the injuries he has potential
Thu Jan 23, 2025 7:35 pm
To add to my previous comment:
We paid Spurs 500k for Etete, with no add ons and no sell on fee %
Compared to Robertson who has a large sell on fee %
It seems as though Spurs know that his potential is lower leagues unfortunately.
