Sunbury Fox Posted 6 August 2022 Share Posted 6 August 2022 Interesting that Barca have been told by La Liga that they can't register their new signings unless they reduce their wage bill in the next 8 days. Could result in Koundé becoming available again and he was first choice for Chelsea... Yeah, alright, I'll put the straws down now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure, he could have bonuses Not sure we paid much out on cleansheet bonus last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

les-tah Posted 6 August 2022 Share Posted 6 August 2022 - We should tell Chelsea it’s now too late for this season and then say we will give you first refusal next season at our asking price only if you loan us Hudson Odoi. least we might have a talented wide man out of it with something to prove.

Sly Posted 6 August 2022 Author Share Posted 6 August 2022 I wonder if someone would take a stab on Umtiti. He wouldn’t be the worst option for us, as long as he’s not still on a Gazzaillion pounds per week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Posted 6 August 2022 Author Share Posted 6 August 2022 And are Chelsea still submitting bids, advising us that if we don’t accept, they’ll come back to offer more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows, matches aside, I’ve not seen enough of him really to judge. He must have a big fall from grace though, to not get a place at the lower end then of the league at least.

On Friday, St Étienne and Leicester City confirmed the transfer of 19-year-old French central defender Wesley Fofana, in a €35m + €5m bonuses deal, which also includes a 20% sell-on percentage fee clause. .... we have already paid £31.5m for him, why would we want to pay another 20% of this (£6.3m) to St. Etienne again!!!

80footgiraffe Posted 6 August 2022 Share Posted 6 August 2022 1 hour ago, Bert said: Kasper’s wages only free up £6m. What winger that’s going to make a difference along with his wages are we going to get for that? We don’t only have £6m though do we? We needed to free up the bill, and would obviously offer less than Kasper’s current wages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LCFCbwoi Posted 6 August 2022 Share Posted 6 August 2022 Can someone give me an honest reason why we’d sell him this window? We’d be able to get the same money, maybe more, next season as we would be able to this season? Plus our wage structure it’s still really bad and I still feel that we’d only have enough in our budget to maybe buy one or 2 players even with the Fofana money. If we can’t strengthen our starting 11 by selling Fofana, then don’t sell him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
