Summer Transfer Window 2021/2022

[BaZ87]

I don't understand why clubs are looking at the likes of Kane and Lukaku for so much when you can have Haaland for not much more.

Getting Dortmund to sell, having just sold Sancho, will be difficult but you also have to remember that he's available for £60-70m next summer. Why pay £120m+ when you can get him for barely half that amount in 12 months?

There is that but at half that amount I imagine there would be quite a bit of competition.

Could do a Keita type deal but then you’d obviously not have him for the coming season. I’m surprised no one has done that tbh. Buy him for 20 mil more now but loan him back.

Possibly but I wouldn't be surprised if he's not in a big rush to move right now. Dortmund is still probably the best place for him and in 12 months his bargaining position is far better than it is now.

There's also the possibility that nobody believes he's worth £120m too.

Maybe but you'd imagine wherever he goes will be agreed, unofficially, before next summer anyway.

PSG looking to sign Koulibaly because FFP is none existent for them.

There were some rumours that Haaland was asking for insane wages too so that is a factor

A reliable German journo who’s name escapes me says that Chelsea agreed a fee for Haaland but the overall package was too much which says a lot

 

[robfosters]

Not a good sign if a young man like that is getting greedy already. For me, he still hasn’t done enough to demand crazy wages.

Koulibaly and Ramos sounds good, but it’s an old partnership. They’d struggle against pacy attacks.

Pace is overrated if you are actually good, this ain't FIFA. Just look at the Italian backline.

Still don’t think it would be as good as it looks on paper. Personally, I think Koulibaly is overrated anyway.

Did you watch Hummels struggling against Mbappe? Pace is definitely not overrated

Koulibaly isnt exactly slow to be fair.

Id love to know how PSG are financing all this though what with their tv deal going through the floor. To be fair their chairman is part of the UEFA executive committee so it must all be in order

I'd like to think your scouts feel its overrated too after spending 70m on a slow CB!

There must be an industrial paper shredder involved somewhere

I'm sure you can guess who his Agent is.

No dont be silly. Their chairman is on UEFAS board he wouldnt risk doing anything to jeopardise that.

Got to be that cretin Mino

PSG are turning into Madrid of the Galactico's era and they won naff all.

He struggled with speed but didn't struggle getting the challenge in to deny him
