Wasn’t that a loan? You think they are still keen but for a permanent? |  | |  |

Wouldn't be shocked if any of our players leave on a permanent deal. |  | |  |

| (No subject) (n/t) on 18:33 - Aug 21 by numptydumpty | Who exactly are you investing £7 million in the week before the end of the transfer window. We likely not get anyone anywhere near Kones qualities for that price at the end of a transfer window and we would be in need, so the selling club would put up their prices. Wheres this mystical £7 million player at least as good as Kone coming from. Names please ?? If Burrell gets injured, then we have Alfie Lloyd up top with Obikwu as his substitute. For rhe sake of £3 million you are prepared to do this, at the start of a season where we for once can genuinely have some belief we could make a go of things with the players, we have at our disposal now. Your opinion with all due respect is not controversial at all. Its just plain and simply brainless. And no one is offering anywhere near £10 million for Kone either. Think the fans would absolutely love this scenario to pan out. Think your tenure as our CEO / DOF would end the day afterwards. Glad you not in charge Westbourne. [Post edited 21 Aug 18:46]

Ooooooo! Try to calm down dear. It’s not nearly as stupid an idea as you say. In fact it’s entirely the model we should be pursuing and are be pursuing. He’s certainly not irreplaceable. But I can see you’ve got all uppity so we’ll leave it at that. |  |

Err not wound up at all. Just stating why selling him now makes zero sense. That was all. [Post edited 21 Aug 21:48]

| (No subject) (n/t) on 20:05 - Aug 21 by Myke | Your points are valid, Numpty, but not sure why you had to get personal and call another posters opinion brainless. Obviously 10M would be a very good price for Kone and would represent a very good profit on our initial investment 12 months ago. This fits the model that has been much discussed. However, you are correct with the timing, it would give us little time to sign a replacement, even at 7m. If there is interest from Burnley (or anyone else), but Kone is happy to stay, then we would be wiser to wait until January and spend the next few months identifying his successor. Of course if we are top by Christmas and Kone is the divisions top scorer all bets are off! |
Wasnt calling Westbourne brainless. Was saying selling Kone at this time for me is a really dim idea. Was saying the decision would be without thought. Sorry for using a word that could offend though. Lets just say daft then. |  |

When would you sell him then? In January? This is the model, the club should have a player lined for this eventuality! |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

| Summer transfer rumours 2026 on 18:41 - Aug 21 by kensalriser | Back in the real world, QPR are not turning down a £10m deal for Kone in this window. And Burnley aren't offering it. |
I would say that Burnley are as mad as Stoke at the prices they are paying for players & Kone is a far better player than Hirst who Stoke have just spent £10m on, although less experienced. Personally, I don't think we have any player worth that figure, but the Hirst fee might mean that I've undervalued the market. I do agree though, that Rangers would accept that offer. |  | |  |

When its too good an offer to turn down and when we have adequate time to bring on a replacement to hit the ground running. Personally think Kone could be the main man this season and he seems to be not held in such high regard and importance for our season ahead by a few I guess lets see. |  |

| Summer transfer rumours 2026 on 23:33 - Aug 21 with 5536 views | Dorse | The potentially fictional nature of the Kone bid notwithstanding, I don't think there are too many QPR players that wouldn't be sold if a silly offer came in. In many ways, it's just nice that other clubs might actually want our players. After all, it's been a while. |  |

Hirst has three promotions with Ipswich under his belt, including two to the Prem, and experience playing in the Prem. And he's only 27. I don't think there are many clubs who would pay more for Kone (not that I necessarily disagree with your assessment). |  |

| Summer transfer rumours 2026 on 17:11 - Aug 21 by numptydumpty | Burnley allegedly have bid £30 million but QPR have turned it down, says the ITK. Kone is not moving anywhere for less than £40 million ! |
From his prior rumours hes well of the mark , he usually copies somebody else’s story adds some more guff and let’s it run , get the feeling he has a special relationship with a sports sock in his bedroom |  |

Vipotnik scored 28 times last season and Hull and Swansea are haggling between 10m and 20m. |  | |  |

I have it that Kone's deal was £2.75m plus £2.25m add ons with a 22.5% sell on clause. The sell on clause applies to profit, which in this case, would be £5m if all add ins are included. So Wycombe would get £1,125m. |  | |  |

I assume the way we work now we have players lined up for this possibility - not guarenteed we can sign them of course. Our issue has been not selling players when we could - whatever you think of the management generally their transfer business has improved the squad, but as mentioned that also means we will need to sell, rinse and repeat, and be prepared. If we are basically moving to up front this year it's less of an issue as well as we will be expecting goals from our creative midfielders much more than in the past also I think. |  |

The dumbest question on a mb. No one can name their sources without losing them as sources and potentially causing them some serious grief. Don’t want to believe the post, absolutely fine, your entitlement to do so. Likewise, take it on board, if you wish. But, honestly, just stop with the “name your source” nonsense. Even if he did, would you believe them? Probably not. So what is the point?! |  | |  |
| Summer transfer rumours 2026 on 00:50 - Aug 23 with 2988 views | LazyFan | We still need a B2B midfielder, and if we are greedy, I would like a sub for Kone. Possibly someone like Ademola Ola-Adebomi as a sub for Kone, who is young and raw but would be a good prospect. Obikwu is apparently, despite his height, a pace merchant more like Burell, and he's never fit anyway. Then we should be good, with backups in all positions, since we know we will need them amid our never-ending, recurring injury chaos. |  |

I thought Smith might have been but he has gone to the MLS so we don't have a big bastard back up in central defence. |  | |  |

The young lad Akendli (or something like that) has looked okay whenever I’ve seen him. The standing joke now has to be Obikwu I’m now convinced he’ll never kick a ball for the club in a first team game |  |
