Rumoured Mattia Destro

[The Skipper 20,593]

Has he gotten on a diet yet?

He looks the same, just needs a nice shave and a haircut.

[Pizy 17,860]

Looks like he roided up.

[BleedsBlue 1,549]

I am actually more excited about the prospect of Torres leaving than getting Destro.

[Chelsea? 892]

No service!

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Nah he looks alright...for PL striker its better to be stockier anyway...and he is 1.86m or sth too.

[TLaw10 28]

He definitely fits the bill size wise that Jose seems to prefer

[termninja 5,290]

We should sign him for a few reasons.

23 years old just the right age. No need to worry that he won't develop too much and if he flops we can always get a good price out of him.

He's a good all around striker, definitely and improvement over Torres.

We must be aware that once this season is over we will pretty much be stuck with only Costa as Drogba will be 37 and Torres will probably finally leave.

Just seeing how much Costa means to this team I'm getting really scared of going through season without him in case an injury strikes. Drogba is not a suitable replacement but a great 3rd choice.

Destro's wages will be lower then Torres' for sure so we also reduce our wage bill.

If our scouts and Jose think he can do well here then sign him ASAP if we manage to move Torres away somewhere as we are stocked on foreign players.

Mattia Destro’s agent confirms “there is interest from Milan and Chelsea” for the Roma striker.

Valued at €25m, the forward had previously been linked with Tottenham, but it seems he has attracted the attentions of another Premier League club.

“I cannot deny he is at the centre of some important situations that could develop,” agent Claudio Vigorelli told alfredopedulla.com.

“More Milan or Chelsea? The market is unpredictable. These are two interested clubs.

“Jose Mourinho admires him, while Milan could make some important steps forward very soon.”

Actually, no. It's Bonetti's source.

[bethos1 802]

Would he be a good choice as a 2nd striker? I have never seen him play.

Actually, no. It's Bonetti's source.

The original source as shown above is the Daily Star so it's most likely BS.

I hope that we don't get him he is worth €10m and he is very lazy tbh. If we are getting a back-up striker then it should be Ibarbo.
