If @Arsenal are to get an agreement with us this deal is never going to get done. 😮
As much as we'd love to have @AaronRamsdale98 he definitely plays for @SheffieldUnited and not us!
Arsenal were not close to sign Aaron Ramsdale - there’s no agreement with Sheffield, as per @gunnerblog. 🔴 #AFC
Goalkeepers news.
-Inter still keen on André Onana, only if he’ll be available as free agent in 2022.
-Luis Maximiano in Granada list if Sergio Romero deal collapses.

Can confirm our interest in the player.
We have submitted an offer of a bottle of Henderson's, a VHS copy of the Full Monty and a £50 Meadowhall gift card.
Just waiting to hear back but good luck topping that bid @swfc
Sources: Orlando City reject offer from Sheffield Wednesday for forward Duncan McGuire.
Orlando view the offer not close to their valuation. Sheffield not the only Championship club chasing McGuire.

The defender left the club in the summer after seven years at Bramall Lane and was extremely popular with supporters, staff and team-mates who pulled on a red and white shirt alongside him.
