LestaLad Posted 13 January 2023 Author Share Posted 13 January 2023 (edited) “Nico Gonzalez advances to Leicester, but for the white smoke there are still some details missing. The first, certainly not negligible, is the definitive ok of Commisso, in Florence these days. The parties will update on Monday, also to resolve the issue related to the percentage of the solidarity contribution, set at 5%. A considerable figure when compared to Leicester's offer, of around EUR 34 million. The English club has presented an official offer to the purple club for a few days, which will make a final decision in the coming days. If Nico Gonzalez were to leave Florence, the violas could turn to Brekalo, the first idea to replace him.” Edited 13 January 2023 by LestaLad 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brekalo himself would have been a good signing, a proven player who is versatile and technically gifted. He’d probably be around the 20-25m mark. We’ve gone for the level above that. Every transfer is a risk but this is the most exciting signing since Tielemans by far. I don't think he would cost that much. Isn't he out of contract in 6 months?

Maybe we should have gone for him after all (Brekalo is right footed only, so would be more of a stand in for Barnes than the counterpart to him on the other side). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that would be back in Argentina and also presumably stuttgart. I suspect there is always haggling over how much of the 5% comes from the fee and how much has to be paid by the purchaser 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enmac Posted 14 January 2023 Share Posted 14 January 2023 I think from this it means the percentage which has to be paid to previous clubs that he's played for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayfox26 Posted 14 January 2023 Share Posted 14 January 2023 Can anyone confirm whether he's any good or not. Cant say I've ever heard of him or seen him play but I don't watch Italian football? Is he a right winger or a left winger who can play on the right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've read, Fiorentina fans seem to think he is better on the left but his goal contributions per game seem much better on the right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not convinced about Gonzalez and the perception is that Madueke will be £40-45m, but he is an out and out Right Winger as opposed to Gonzalez who appears to do most if his work centrally or coming from the left of the field. I do not think Madueke is worth £45m at this moment, he has not hit the heights that he had previously, and as you can see, injury has a habit of taking away a good percentage of your output, and you are never quite the same. I feel he should be £25m , £30m at the maximum. Versatility is all very well, but we need someone who is a Right Winger first and last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you noticed the photos I’d posted, then you may have seen what I’ve said about Gonzalez as a player in this very same thread. I won’t say any signing is a guarantee but Gonzalez is a helluva player who ticks a lot of empty boxes for us right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't a progressive passer of the ball, and added nothing to our team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most of us at this stage are going on the fact he’s Argentinian and has a Z in his name. Before he’s kicked a ball for us those exotic (in football terms) are promising!

Something we completely lack, and that attribute will be a welcome addition to our squad if he does indeed possess those. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
