well, £60m for sure, but doubt Palace would cough that up split the difference, £55m

Real has a lot of dregs still and is also ageing in many places, so it is hardly shocking that they will all out (now or eventually) for monster players like Bellingham, Gvardiol, Mbappe, Håland, Enzo, Musiala, Alphonso Davies, Reece, Hakimi (if they cannot get Reece), Osimhen (if they pass on Håland) etc etc here are their best players (and look at some of the ages), the ones who are good enough none of their fullbacks are good enough, and if you take away the 3 oldsters, they have no CF and almost no almost no depth anywhere they only have 11 outfield players who are truly good enough, take away the 3 oldies, and they have 8 Thibaut Courtois Andriy Lunin (decent backup keeper) Éder Militão David Alaba (31yo this summer) Antonio Rüdiger (30yo in a month and a half) Aurélien Tchouameni Federico Valverde Eduardo Camavinga Toni Kroos (34yo in middle of nest season) Luka Modric (38yo at start of next season) Vinicius Junior Rodrygo Karim Benzema (36yo in the middle of next season) Endrick (but doesn't come until summer 2024) and the ones who simply are not good enough: Nacho Fernández (and is 33yo tomorrow) dregs Jesús Vallejo dregs Ferland Mendy has been poor Daniel Carvajal (32 next season) in systemic decline Álvaro Odriozola dregs Dani Ceballos dregs Eden Hazard (and is 33yo in middle of next season) so poor now, it is sad Marco Asensio has been poor for ages, his career never took off like it looked it would Lucas Vázquez (32yo this summer) not dregs but hardly good enough Mariano Díaz dregs Reinier (on loan and injured again) has been a 30m euro bust since they bought him 3 years ago in Jan 2020

£50m and out he goes

Graham Potter confirms Denis Zakaria injury blow and rates Benoit Badiashile’s Chelsea debut against Crystal Palace https://metro.co.uk/2023/01/15/graham-potter-confirms-denis-zakaria-injury-blow-and-rates-benoit-badiashiles-Chelsea-debut-18104242/?ito=newsnow-feed ChelseaGraham Potter confirms Denis Zakaria injury blow and rates Benoit Badiashile’s Chelsea debut against Crystal Palace manager Graham Potter has confirmed Denis Zakaria will be sidelined for at least four weeks with an injury. The midfielder, who joined the Blues on loan from Juventus in the summer, has turned in a series of impressive performances since the return of club football but was forced off injured during Thursday’s 2-1 defeat to Fulham. Potter is already without Edouard Mendy, Ben Chilwell, Wesley Fofana, Reece James, N’Golo Kante, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Raheem Sterling, Christian Pulisic and Armando Broja with an injury crisis engulfing the club. Zakaria joins that injury list with his manager confirming he is set for a spell on the sidelines. Speaking after Sunday’s 1-0 win over Crystal Palace, Potter told a post-match press conference: ‘Denis will probably be four weeks, so that is a blow for us.’ Chelsea have been busy in January with the club unveiling their latest signing Mykhailo Mudryk at Stamford Bridge ahead of kick-off. Benoit Badiashile, who joined the club in a £35m deal from Monaco earlier this month, made his debut against Patrick Vieira’s side and provided a solid showing at the heart of defence. ‘I thought Benoit did well, really well. It was a good game for him,’ Potter said. ‘Koulibaly has had a lot of football and the turnaround from Thursday was a consideration. He passes the ball well, when he needed to head the ball out he did. ‘He has to adapt to the Premier League, it will take him some time, but it was very positive.’ After defeat to local rivals Fulham midweek, Chelsea recorded their first win of 2023 against Palace. ‘You have to deal with the bad times, the tough situations, accept the criticism that comes your way and accept the responsibility. ‘The players have suffered, that’s not nice, but it’s important to enjoy the win today and it gives a shot in the arm for next week.’
