We may need cheap if that £150m is the total outflow allowed to be spent, regardless of sales income. if that is indeed the case, the window is already semi-doomed I said 2 months ago that I truly hoped (as the £150m figure was tossed out for the January window as well) that it was not £150m total for both windows it looks like it might be, which is madness

laughable in terms of whom they recommend Chelsea signing this 27-year-old from PL rivals to replace Kante would be a shrewd move https://www.mediareferee.com/2020/02/05/chelsea-signing-this-27-year-old-from-pl-rivals-to-replace-kante-would-be-a-shrewd-move/ Why Chelsea should go for Watford’s Abdoulaye Doucoure in the summer In January, The Sun claimed that Chelsea midfielder N’Golo Kante is targeting a summer switch to Real Madrid. The Frenchman, 28, has enjoyed rich success since joining Chelsea from Leicester City in the summer of 2016. He has helped Chelsea win the Premier League, FA Cup and Europa League so far, racking up 163 appearances across all competitions. N’Golo Kante is one of Chelsea’s most prized assets. He signed a contract extension back in November 2019, tying him with the club until 2023. The report adds both Bayern Munich and Juventus are said to be possible destinations, but the midfielder prefers a move to Zinedine Zidane’s Real Madrid. The 2018 World Cup winner, however, has had to deal with injuries this term, limiting him to just 17 Premier League outings. Yet, he remains a key player for Chelsea when he is fit and available. Kante will turn 29 in March and considering the defensive midfielder’s age as well as interest from some of Europe’s top clubs, Frank Lampard would be wise to consider signing a long-term replacement for the Frenchman. Back in January 2019, The Mirror reported that Chelsea had targeted a deadline day swoop for Watford midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure. However, a deal didn’t materialize then and he has since stayed put at Vicarage Road. Abdoulaye Doucoure, 27, has been a consistent performer for Watford over the last couple of seasons in the Premier League. He made 35 appearances in the Premier League last season, scoring five goals and providing six assists in the process for the Hornets. The French midfielder of Malian descent struggled in the first half of this campaign but since Nigel Pearson replaced Quique Sanchez Flores at the helm, Doucoure has regained his mojo. So far this season, he has scored three goals and assisted once in 24 league games as Watford battle relegation. snip

I never thought she is in charge of anything scouting-wise but she absolutely sets budgets and decides if a buy or sale will happen and for what price 'Juve has used her like a wet rag for years here is what Carnevali said about Juve and Bepe Marotta Sassuolo chief executive Giovanni Carnevali has spoken on the relationship that the Neroverdi have with many of their Serie A counterparts.“We already have a good relationship with the Nerazzurri. We closed a deal with them for Matteo Politano back in August but we have also done major business with other clubs like Roma with Lorenzo Pellegrini proof of that.”He then went on to claim it was ‘impossible’ to work with current Inter chief executive Giuseppe ‘Beppe’ Marotta, who recently left a similar position at Juventus.“Marotta is one of the most capable directors in football and we have worked together for 6 years between Monza, Ravenna and Como. He was my teacher, we are friends, but dealing with him is impossible.”

Carnevali is highly respected in Europe as a director AC Milan wanted him and he said no i would take him in a heartbeat over Marina he has done amazing work on a shoestring budget

'3 years of torture' - Some Chelsea fans hope winger rumour isn't true Chelsea: Fans want Willian gone after attacker makes contract demand https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league/chelsea/chelsea-fans-want-willian-gone-after-attacker-makes-contract-demand/ Chelsea fans aren’t too pleased about Willian’s latest contract demands as the Blues continue to work out a deal with the Brazilian attacker. ESPN report the 31-year-old winger is keen to remain in west London over a move to FC Barcelona, however, Willian wants a three-year deal at Chelsea instead of the two-year offer the Blues are proposing to the former Anzhi Makhachkala star. The Premier League forward’s current contract with Frank Lampard’s side expires this summer. Marca reported in the January transfer window via The Daily Mail that Willian would join Barcelona for free in the summer transfer window, but this latest update from ESPN has seemingly changed the direction of the story in a new direction. Yet some Chelsea fans weren’t too pleased about it. A few supporters on social media are keen on Lampard offloading Willian when his contract expires at the end of this season given the attacker’s age and the emergence of young wingers at the club like Christian Pulisic and Callum Hudson-Odoi. Here’s what Chelsea fans had to say on Twitter…

We already have a tonne of CMF's (which is where Kante has been moved to) and more on the way from the youngsters like Billy Gilmour and Conor Gallagher, who loves to play a dynamic box to box role, but has played (this is mad, lol) DMF, CMF, LMF, RMF, AMF, and RW so far this season The more I think about it, the better Declan Rice sounds, as besides a great young DMF, he is also a CB as well and may end up there for England. He is better on th ball and at passing than any CB we have now. Lampard can use him in a multiplicity of ways.

Kante is 28yo atEduardo Camavinga (Stade Rennais)m he turns 30 next season, in early, early spring (end of March, 2021) if he were already 30, there is zero chance we would get £100m or more for him thsi summer, which is why I want to cash in this summer my top 5 DMF targets, in order Eduardo Camavinga (insane potential and is a hybrid, can play further up the pitch, but this is so not a Chels buy, not under this shit board, so expect Real or Barca to snap him up and by 2025 he will be the best DMF on the planet, lolol) Declan Rice (who Lamps wants, I think he is great too, can so live with this, downside is the high price but he is young, high quality and an England starter) Thomas Partey (due to £42m RC, which is crazy low for him) Florentino (will be too expensive I fear, and for the money he will cost he is a dice roll) Denis Zakaria Bonus Wilfred Ndidi, but there is no way Leicester will give him up in the summer, I would take him over every other one but Camavinga and Rice Boubakary Soumaré's take on stats are HORRID 2nd worst amongst MFers in Ligue 1 for the first half of the season that is not a good thing for a DMF I need to watch him more and also have someone lay out a case for him

One problem is that so few truly class CF's are truly viable as wingers and also actually available or likely to come here CF's Kylian Mbappé (not viable as a target) Antoine Griezmann (not viable as a target) Lautaro Martínez (not viable as a target) Timo Werner (Obviously is the best choice but as I have stated, I do not see him coming here) Gabriel Jesus (not viable as a target) Anthony Martial (not viable as a target) Iñaki Williams (not viable as a target) Dominic Calvert-Lewin (my 2nd choice for a realistic CF, after Dembele, who is not a winger type, so DCL is the only real option for this hybrid who is a CF first) youth CF's who can also play winger Victor Osimhen (my first choice for youth CF's) Donyell Malen Fedor Chalov Myron Boadu João Pedro In terms of SS's you have João Félix (not viable as a target) Paulo Dybala (not viable as a target) then a big fall off (and both of these are not really CFs at all) Joaquín Correa Ante Rebic that is it for the SS's I suppose you could toss Mertens in, but I do not see him leaving Napoli, I think he renews, plus he turns 34yo towards the end of next season so pass Zaha and Richarlison are wingers who can play CF (like Martial, but they are better on the wing, versus Martial who is better as a CF) but are insanely expensive (especially Zaha, due to his age, as he turns 28 three months into the season, and £80m for only 2 sub 30yo seasons is not a good deal)

well, that just made Grealish's cost just go up to over £70m if Villa stays up (I do not know what happens if they go down other than he is much more likely to leave)
