We are as long as no one insults us as scouse had done.

DE BRUYNE DEAL: Wolfsburg's Allofs tells local press: "We’re close to an agreement with Chelsea".

Some sites I had read tells the price is 21m Eur = 17m pounds. Your Bild states 18m Eur. Whom to believe, is the question ? Take your pick.

At the end of the day, we are selling our 5th/6th best attacking midfielder for a profit of 10 million

Exactly. Never said anything against it. A great piece of business by Chelsea. Either 10 or 11m a huge profit in less than two years for someone who played 2 games in this season. Hopefully, the profit is used to buy some other player.

Wolfsburg have confirmed they are edging closer to agreeing a deal with Chelsea to sign Belgian winger Kevin de Bruyne. Sporting director Klaus Allofs told Wolfsburger Nachrichten:

"It's not that we can confirm the deal just yet, but we are no longer so far apart with Chelsea that we can't bridge the differences."

Wolfsburg are leaving Abu Dhabi on wednesday and travelling to China, they would like to take KDB along with them.

Deal is as good as done according some media, it's waiting for an announcement from both teams, he would leave for over €20m

[Special Juan 27,424]

Matic in and De Bruyne out right now looks to be very good business.

Chelsea midfielder Kevin de Bruyne is expected to complete a £16m move to German club Wolfsburg in the next 48 hours via @BenSmithBBC

I guess £16m is decent if we can get Matic for ~25m

[The Skipper 20,593]

£16m rising to £20m isn't bad at all, profit made, chunk of it goes to the Matic deal, shrewd business.

Good luck KDB, hopefully you turn out to be the magnificent player you're promising to be.

Although i think he will turn into a top player the only way we will regret it is if he turns on Messi or Ronaldo level. As good as he is he's not better than Hazard or Oscar. especially in Mourinho's system. I like the lad and will watch his progress with interest, his situation here is a case off right place, wrong time. I do wonder what would have happened if we lost in Munich,Hazard would almost certainly not joined and Oscar maybe too (although i think we would have got him) KDB might have got brought in there and then, guess were never know .

Unfortunate for him, but that's the way the cookie crumbles.
