Seems Otavios people trying to drive up the price by including Liverpool interest. If the agent is in the UK then its to meet the club who are interested in him, but not sure its us, but if it is then the agent is in for a shock…
From what I read Porto rejected our bid of about £29 million however Liverpool are set to bid for him sometime this week. It's an interesting situation for sure.
The likely hood of Ben Foster signing for us has increased. Foster wanted to go to Arsenal to be No2 under Aaron Ramsdale bit now Arsenal have brought in Matt Turner from New England Revolution.
I remember this guy from January because Bielsa told Orta to go get him, but Ancelotti refused to sell him. Mariana Diaz has now been told by Real Madrid he can go. Strange career scoring goals for fun coming through the Madrid youth ranks up to the first team. He was only given 8 games and sold to Lyon for €8m plus 35% sell on. He then scored 18 goals in 37 games playing alongside Memphis Depay who also scored 18. real Madrid then bought him back for €23m. Scratches head. Ever since he has hardly played except for the odd minutes here and there in cups etc. he only has a year left so going to be well cheap, so will Orta fancy him again?
Costa, Shackleton, Roberts, Poveda and Klich we really need to shift a few of these in case we are signing even more expensive dead wood and Rodrigo the most expensive lump of dead wood ever
I'd keep Klich and Roberts for 1 more season for squad depth. Don’t want to be in the position like last season having 15 year olds on the bench.
Sign them up, at least they got part of their body in the way of the balloon, and not let it go past them
Well Kiko would have popped it, and then no doubt the FA would fine us for destroying footballing equipment
The striker we have been rumoured to be really going after is obviously a back up to Bamford and cheap. Been mentioned on here a few times but story taking off again maybe by the club who need cash?.
If the Elis sort is true and Raphinha goes we will be still going after a top right sided forward and a top DM for Phillips
