Blues Forever

No recall clause and Lyon have an option to buy.

Antony or Neres replacement?

Confirmed ACL injury.

Forgot the exact date but he said it around 29-30 december.

Seems Chiesa just tore his ACL.

Atletico wants Daniel Wass from Valencia to replace Trippier. Negotiations are underway between clubs and the player. Wass only has 6 months left in his contract and won't extend with Valencia.

The bottom line is Emerson was in the last pecking order behind Alonso last season. I don't buy Tuchel want him back so badly.

Yeah, seems like a pr move from the club.

Their journo Hugo Guillemet said Lyon won't allow Emerson back to us.

Lyon probably would exercise the option since Emerson has been decent although not amazing for them. Alonso only has one and half year left and should be easy to offload in the summer.

Not if you want to challenge for a titles.

Emerson is underwhelming choice, but i guess the board are really reluctant to sign a permanent LWB/LB.
