Episode 186 - The 10 Best Free Agents This Summer — And Which Clubs Should Sign Them

About this episode

The episode discusses the top 10 free agents available this summer and analyzes their potential club signings amidst the World Cup's influence on the transfer window.

The World Cup is about to swallow the transfer window whole, which means free agents may be a smart play this summer. Patrick and Neel run through 10 players hitting the market for nothing, break down what they actually offer, and try to find them a home. Mo Salah's attitude problem, Konaté's Liverpool stalemate, why Bernardo Silva doesn't fit the Premier League anymore, the Vlahović wages nightmare, and whether Casemiro is genuinely MLS-bound. Plus: the centre-back generating midfielder numbers, the midfielder Patrick has never liked, and Lewandowski's increasingly narrow path to a good move. Enjoy!
