## Resource

Benjamin Bloom discusses all the latest done deals, rumours and links in the EFL Championship just two weeks away from the big kick-off. How will West Ham spend their Fernandes and Summerville cash, Gomes exits Wolves and Esteve Burnley. Middlesbrough get busy and spend big on Lankshear, while Millwall continue to strengthen a side who came so close last season. Wrexham have a new right back, Birmingham tweak after last years big investment and Derby seal the return of a former Golden Boot winner. Swansea spend their Galbraith cash, Bristol City take Tolaj from League 1 rather than Ballard, and QPR gamble on Lamptey. Watford do yet more business with Udinese, Portsmouth go all in on a Serbian striker and Lincoln break their transfer record for a Romanian centre back.
