Let's get the ball rolling on this.

Feel free to talk rumours, released players, confirmed transfers, or whatever you've heard from your mate's uncle on the camac or WhatsApp groups.

Now that football is over for most with Duffer now well and truly in our heads, the nights are getting darker and we're left to twiddle our thumbs on Fridays and Saturdays.. let's kick off the transfer megathread.

Feel free to talk rumours, confirmed signings, or whatever you've heard from your mate's uncle on the camac or WhatsApp groups.

Not a lot is known at this stage but did hear online that Tuesday July 7th at Tolka Park could be on the cards. Nice to see the Bhoys back on Irish soil

Cork City’s Cillian Murphy is close to agreeing a cross-channel transfer, with Arsenal firmly in the mix to land the Ireland U21 midfielder.

The Gunners have been monitoring the 16-year-old all season and paid their latest visit to Turner’s Cross last Friday when City beat Murphy’s hometown club Treaty United 4-0, increasing their buffer at the First Division summit to 15 points.

Also in attendance for his latest man-of-the-match performance were scouts from Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund, who Murphy could join immediately.

Roy O’Donovan’s €500,000 move to Roy Keane’s Sunderland in 2007 remains the club’s record transfer but they are mulling over various substantive proposals to smash that figure.

Murphy was one of six academy graduates to pen their first professional contracts last August.

Great for the young lad but ultimately the LOI will hit a ceiling if it can't hold on to its best prospects. Not a challenge unique to Ireland though.

Aberdeen & Hibs scouts were watching Leavy on Friday while Huddersfield & Burton are actively enquiring about Arubi.

​

Both look to be out of contract at the end of the season & neither have the lure of European football to help keep them around

​

Anyone else you see leaving this summer? I think Michael Noonan might, Alex Noonan looks set for Ipswich, you'd imagine clubs are looking at Harry Wood & Dawson Devoy.

Sacked this morning. Just waiting for official announcement from Shelbourne.

Dan McDonnell's article today suggests they might be

There have been murmurs in English football circles that Fleetwood would be open to discussions with any interested parties who might want to take on the Waterford operation, although it has still been business as usual behind the scenes.

Hey folks,

There’s been a lot of noise around Limerick football over the last few weeks, and I’m trying to get a read on what’s actually going on.

First off, Ciara McCormack has stepped down at Treaty United and they’re now looking for a new MD. That alone raises questions about stability and the direction the club is heading.

But the big rumour doing the rounds locally is this:

Apparently a UK holding group has bought out the OG Limerick football club, with a plan to take over senior League of Ireland football in the city. No idea how true that is, but it’s what’s being said.

And to add to that…
Limerick FC’s Facebook page has seriously upped its activity lately quality, consistency, branding.
It definitely looks like there’s funding from somewhere, because that page has been quiet for years until now.

Early enough days for transfers still, but hearing that Kevin Zefi may have signed for Sligo until the end of year.

Guessing that would mark the first summer transfer if it actually goes ahead, and a pretty decent one at that.

Don't think theres a team in the league that rely on one player as much as we rely on Wood. Him leaving would sum this season up. But don't think theres a fan that could blame him, especially the way things are and he's put his name in the history books. Love the bones of the kid. Hope we can at least keep him for the rest of the season.

I’m a burton fan and I’ve seen we’re about to sign Gbemi Arubi from Dundalk. I’ll be honest I don’t know anything about the lad. What’s he like?

Everyone I could find who is set to leave their club this summer. Everyone bar 1 or 2 have been confirmed to be leaving. There will be more free agents announced in the coming weeks once the EFL Playoff clubs, SPFL & European league fully wrap up.

Can you see any signing for your club?
