Mention of the fee anywhere?

The fuck?

Him going there for Rice would be like James coming to Everton for Carlo.

Yeah it would definitely be a huge risk for them. Speaking strictly financially losing out on cl would still be less of a loss than 100m though..

That is exactly what he didn't do. He just said "we are still planning with him", which is the weakest possible statement you can make, and decidedly different from what he said about the other players. And yes, under pressure to sell, IF a huge bid comes in.

I agree with your general sentiment, but with Sancho and Lewandowski they came out straight away saying that they are not going to leave, which they are explicitly not doing with Haaland. Also they are definitely under pressure to sell, because it is very hard to burn 100m of fee in a year, when you have shareholders to answer to.

Cl topscorer last season at 20 years old...

Can we please stop taking something seriously that Pedulla said

Yeah thanks, that's pretty much what i figured. Feels like he would definitely be a really good option for us to have, but not the big money solution to our problems, that we should be looking for.

He looks like a good player, but nowhere near 70m or what we should aspire to in our main striker to me. Also haven't seen him that much though, is he better than i'm giving him credit for?

Haha, i think he'd rather retire

Unless Tuchel doesnt see either as an adequate backup

Really feel like Hakimi is supposed to cover for whatever LB is gonna leave

Well yeah, because he's also the agent of Hakimi

I think they just mean fantasy as in the best possible signing for the position, not fantasy as in unattainable.

Where did you find the 70m number? Romano and Sky were reporting 80m, i think?

Yeah in his first season at BVB he played more on the left than the right. I think the Christensen part is just baseless speculation by an italian journalist not being up to date with Chelsea

Its probably better for Inter to get a straight fee for Hakimi and still buy Emerson separately for some weird debt write-off reasons. Reckon Emerson might be an advantage for us even if he isnt in the deal directly.

Hakimi also played a lot on the left for Dortmund, would be nice to have 2nd option there that can actually run.

Look, i'm just looking for any reason to make this transfer happening actually seem feasible 😅 But you're right of course, BVB def have a history of being stubborn about stuff like this

True, but Sancho doesn't have a release clause this year. Haaland will def go for 100m less next year though

Easy there^^ They didnt say he's worth 40m. They just said they do not intend to sell him. When asked if they wouldn't even consider it at any price, they said for sth like 40m they would be forced to think about it.

The only thing making me have a sliver of hope is that BVB would have to explain to their investor how selling him next year for less than half the fee was a good fincancial decision. Then again they Lewa's contract run out, sooo...

Nope nothing. Just Bild quoting the Mail, which is already being misquoted/mistranslated on Twitter.
