Welsh Summer Transfers 2010 (Premier League,W)

West Bromwich Albion
West Brom paid £1.5 million to sign goalkeeper Boaz Myhill from financially-troubled Hull City on a three-year contract. For now he is the back-up goalkeeper but Bo has plans to change that.
Kayleden Brown was sent to Tranmere Rovers one a one-month loan deal.
Welsh Players: One - Boaz Myhill, plus Kayleden Browm (out on loan)

West Ham United
Danny Gabbidon was rumoured to have attracted the attention of Blackpool but they must have been wary of his injury problems as no move was made as far as I know.
West Ham wanted Joe Ledley just like pretty much every other club but he went to Celtic instead.
Welsh Players: Two - Danny Gabbidon, Jack Collison

Wigan Athletic
It was reported that Jason Koumas had been released by Wigan but that can’t be true as he has now joined Cardiff City on a season-long loan from Wigan.
Welsh Players: None, plus Jason Koumas (out on loan)

Wolverhampton Wanderers
Wayne Hennessey attracted the attention of Liverpool and Burnley (one club apparently made a £2 million bid) and he was rumoured to be on his way to both but instead he signed a new five-year ontract with Wolves. They rewarded him by giving his No. 1 shirt to Marcus Hahnemann.
David Jones was coming to the end of a contract and he still hasn’t signed a new one but I think his current one has a while to run yet. Blackburn Rovers, Bolton Wanderers and Newcastle United were all said to be interested in signing him.
Sam Vokes was linked with the exit door and with loan moves with Crystal Palace said to be interested. But Sam signed a new contract with Wolves and Mick McCarthy said he wasn’t going anywhere and there had been no interest in taking him on loan. Hours later, it was announced that Sam would play on loan at Bristol City until January 5th.
Jake Cassidy joined Wolves on a two-year deal this close season. He was at Llandudno Junction a short time ago, then he signed for Airbus UK but he left for Wolves without having played a competitive fixture.
And let’s not forget Joe Ledley – Wolves wanted him too. But he didn’t fancy England and went to Celtic instead.
Welsh Players: Two and three halves - Wayne Hennessey, Dave Edwards, Sam Vokes (out on loan), David Jones (wants to play for England), Jake Cassidy (unlikely to be considered for the first team
