Blues Forever

Juventus are now working to close the transfer of Leandro Paredes with PSG. New talks are expected today. The player has been the priority for Juve and Allegri.

Gordon for £60m vs Antony for £80m.

Apparently if we loan Chalobah, Ampadu will stay instead.

Lyon have rejected West Ham offer for Paqueta around €50m (add-ons included) and want €60m to sell the player.

Fofana, Azpilicueta: RCB Silva, Ampadu: CCB Koulibaly, Cucurella: LCB

Chelsea has told Ajax that they only want to sell Hakim Ziyech. They are currently asking for too much money and should nothing change, Ajax would have to look to other players.

Ajax are expecting a €90m bid to be officially submitted on Thursday and the final transfer fee could end up at €95m without add-ons.

Nvm just saw this.

Source plz? This could be a fake quote since i haven't seen this in Kinsella's article.

As i said before Baba had that price tag because of his status as one of the top LB in Bundesliga. Same reason why both Brighton and Leicester put £63m and £80m for Cucurella and Fofana.

Baba was £22m, came as one of the top 3 LB in Bundesliga. Gordon for £60m meanwhile hasn't show anything near that.

What i mean is setting precedent for a young unproven players.

If we are talking about a massive gamble, Gordon fits this topic better than Fofana or Cucurella.

Fofana already performed in his first season and actually was one of the best CB in that season. Same argument why we paid £63m to Brighton for Cucurella.

A big difference Fofana is already proven, Gordon isn't.

Paying £60m for Gordon will set a new precedent in the future for other clubs.

Barcelona have asked Chelsea to accept paying €25m+ €3m add-ons for Aubameyang. If they accept, Aubameyang will leave today.
