I’m sure we were linked with Maldini a couple of times.

Keeper wise you’d have to say Valdes is the biggest name linked even though we actually signed him, same with Reiziger for right back.

Renee Houseman was a good shout, Argentine World Cup Winner 1978, actually signed and played in a friendly then all went sour after 2 weeks
 
Igor Cvitanović and Diego Forlan for super-subs.

Also, weren't we linked with George Best after he played in a testimonial (Jim Platt's??)
 
Rob Hulse
Ben Watson
That midfielder from WBA who we were linked with every bloomin' window for years
 
We could have signed him when he left Wolves for Coventry and agreed the fee but Lamb didn’t think he was worth 20k a week. Absolute bonkers.
I thought it was to do with his agent demanding some sort of fee that Gibson wouldn't agree to pay?
 
Igor Protti
Francesco Moriero
Patrick Kluivert
Rudolph Duala

Were we linked with Lombardi at some point before he joined palace?

Seem to think we were also linked with Gullit and Vialli before they joined Chelsea.
