FlyBritishMidland Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Linked with Hull apparently. No mention of a fee. Be disappointing if he goes and would leave us light in midfield. We’d need a replacement asap. https://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/hull-city-transfer-bid-derby-8644343 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Trav Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 They've been sniffing around Birdy all summer long. We are going to get to crunch time soon with him only having a year left on his deal Betty Swollocks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as statements go, this sounds quite authentic: "Hull City are in talks with League One outfit Derby County over a deal to sign highly-rated midfielder Max Bird on a permanent deal, Hull Live can exclusively reveal. The ambitious Tigers have lodged a bid with the East Midlands club and are in discussions over doing a deal to bring the 22-year-old to the MKM Stadium."

bucktwo Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 (edited) I've been wondering about Max . His body language hasn't looked the best on recent videos and I'm not convinced he is a number 10 . Centre mid he has massive potential. This is an interesting development . Edited August 1, 2023 by bucktwo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MACKWORTHRAM Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Would have to bring someone in before he left in my opinion. We are already short in midfield so selling him with no replacement would be daft. Not sure if we got a relatively decent fee for him (£2 million) that this would allow Warne to spend maybe half of it. If we replaced him with a midfielder who chips in with more goals then I'm ok with it. He's only got a year left. So he either stays and signs a new deal or moves on.

Ambitious Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 If we are hell bent on not spending fees to replace outgoing players then it would worry me to lose Bird - no doubt the money would be good and he isn't irreplaceable but could definitely see us selling Bird for £2.5-3m and signing Matty Longstaff on a free as his replacement.

Big Trav Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 If we can get 2-3 million for Bird I'd go all out for tom Davies who still hasn't got a club. Paul Warne do your thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RamsFan10 Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 This is different to Knight in that it leaves us way too light in midfield if he goes, meaning he's worth more to us at the moment than he would be normally. Player might be worth £2m for example (one year left on contract I believe) but I suspect the impact his loss would have might make Clowes demand a higher fee (until we line up a replacement). Hull appear to be trying to offload Ryan Woods. Wonder if some from of swap could be agreed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Topram Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 No point, we couldn’t invest the knight or bielek money so why lose one of our best players now? JustOneBiblicalKazim and Will Hughes Hair 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 He would absolutely have to be replaced and given that it's not looking like we can utilise any fee I'd not even consider selling him right now because there's no way we get anyone as good for free. Better to lose him next summer than risk ballsing our squad up just before the start of the season. JustOneBiblicalKazim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
