    to say the least. I don’t have a link can’t even remember where I read it but it is out there as fanciful as it seems.

    If there was any truth in it, it'd surely be a buy and loan to the championship arrangement. Can't really see any sense to it, except the Coleman-Donegal link.

    My understanding is Everton's owners are flush with cash but have struggled to spend within FFP limits. With the rules being relaxed for 2020-21 due to covid, there's a potential opportunity. To use Chelsea's model, you invest in players who you don't really intend to play for you but you think can be loaned out and sold higher up the football pyramid for a profit 2 years down the line - and you use the income arriving in 2022 to fund transfers and wages then.

    Obviously there haven't been any signs of this, so I'm sure it's just nonsense I've thought up but Curtis would certainly fit the mould of a player who has potential to double his transfer fee in a short time, given his age and the fact that even at championship level strikers are going for £20m+, so when the markets normalise a year or two down the line, a £13-15m fee doesn't seem totally absurd if he were to prove himself for a good championship side

    Looks to be this "in the know" twitter account: https://twitter.com/Undercovertran2/...56320269987841

    So I wouldn't put any stock in it at all.

    The elongated transfer window might suit him. Brentford coming in to replace Watkins or Benrahma with Curtis would be a great result and plenty of time for it too.

    If the past week has taught him anything it's that sticking it out in League One is not going to help his international career much. There are younger lads like Parrott and Idah moving into the Championship, as well as lads around his own age like Sadlier and Ogbene. Maguire is there too. There's plenty wide forwards like Long and Connolly in the Premier League.

    Taken off injured against Rochdale on Saturday. Wearing a protective boot and unlikely to play against Wigan -- or to make Kenny's squad v. Slovakia?

    He's fast and direct, might be a good fit for Mick at Cardiff. Would probably cost less than a million to sign him from League 1.

    In what is probably the most predictable transfer rumour of the summer, he has been linked to Mick McCarthy's Cardiff.

    Ronan might end up going to Preston, with Jordan Stockley and some ££ going to Portsmouth. The Lancashire Post says that Danny Cowley’s side have permission to talk to Stockley.

    Danny Cowley (Pompey manager) now says that Ronan will be returning to pre-season training with them, and will "start the season for Pompey and do brilliantly well – and off the back of that we’ll see what happens." It seems no club have made any firm approach, but ""We don’t tend to stand in the way of our players".

    A goal and an assist today away against Oxford, but they still lost 3-2 after playing 75 minutes with ten men and then conceding in the tenth minute of injury time.

    First league goal in 11 games, and only his fourth of the season. Hit double figures in each of the three seasons since moving from Derry, so this season hasn't exactly been vintage stuff.

    The News (Portsmouth) notes today that there was interest in Curtis from Ligue 1 in January and that the interest continues, and that there has been no discussion recently with Pompey about an extension to his contract, which expires next year. He has had a quiet season, by his standards, but managed 8 league and 2 EFL Cup goals. The paper reports that Curtis and his partner, having experienced two miscarriages during the season, are expecting a baby in September, which may explain why he is happy to stay at Pompey for 2022/23.

    Curtis had been linked with Hibernian, but the Edinburgh Evening News now (13 June) says that Hibs are no longer interested.
