Fulham Broadway 17,720 Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Well Hazard and Courtois have been given 3 weeks off now, and wages of 300k and 200k a week respectively allegedly. Real offering 31m for Courtois is a joke in todays market, but he seems more vocal about moving than Hazard. Anyway what players and managers say/tweet now is usually bollocks, and the media coat those bollocks with more bollocks Johnnyeye, Unionjack and Fernando 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 9,091 Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 3 hours ago, Jason said: Translation: ⚽️📰 confirmed: #Chelsea He will meet with Thierry Hazard, father of Eden, this week to offer the renewal of the contract to his son. It would go from 11.7 m € to earn 17.7 m € a year plus a contract for 5 years. Suppose if this is true, the next week or two, will give us the moment of truth. I generally think he has his mind set on leaving but that is a very very good offer and I think coupled with Sarri, Jorginho, a few other players coming in.. he could be persuaded. Doesn't help that Courtois has also said he goes where Eden goes, if it was a joke it wasn't a very good one fair enough but just an odd comment to make considering I think Hazard is more important to the club than he is, although he is a world class level GK. Martinez as well stirring the pot saying he could be the main player of any project for any club in the world... Johnnyeye 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't look like he's going to sign so we have to sell. Our window closes before Spain though so we only got 3 weeks to get a replacement, we can't wait for him to come back from holiday and then decide he wants to go.

He's a good keeper, and don't mind if he stays, if Real or Barca were selling him he'd be 80-100m. I wouldn’t miss him giving away penalties all the time. I would much rather have players out there that I feel a connection with, rather than ones that just seem to be going through the motions. bigbluewillie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you but 31m considering he's in the final year isn't bad and if he were to sign a big 5 year deal, I wouldn't be against it, the only issue I have with him is his constant digs in the press and this world cup has made his head 2 x bigger and he wants even more now. Signing a new deal would put this to bed, for a few years at least so we could go forward without speculation of a goalkeeper. I just don't see him signing a new deal.

Henrique 9,133 Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I really dont know who thought closing the window earlier would be a good idea...we have just few weeks to buy players, but probably we will live with Real Madrid/Hazard rumors until the end of next month, because now the PL teams can't buy players after August 9, but they can lose anyone as long as other teams outside England can get new players.

I think it was meant as a way of solidifying rosters throughout England so you don't have those transfer dramas while games are being played, but the problem is exactly what you wrote in that other teams outside of England can still purchase! haha im all for the transfer window closing before the season starts, but that should happen across europe. or at least restrict being able to buy players from teams/leagues once their window is closed.

Exactly, I knew it would come to bite back. Already stories about clubs regretting this decision. Premier League clubs regret voting for early closure of the transfer window as prices remain sky-high and they are left with less time to negotiate deals Stats and Fulham Broadway 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamcfc 182 Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 It's probably going to have a massive impact on us more than anyone with all the speculation about our players. What if we start the season then all 3 of Hazard, Tibo and Willian were to leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of related to the SkySports article regarding Perez's obsession with Neymar - http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11835/11437114/real-madrid-president-florentino-perez-obsessed-with-signing-neymar-says-graham-hunter Quote "I think Neymar would bite your hand off if you said here is a formula for you to get to Real Madrid, but given the high finances involved I am happy to say Neymar is a PSG player for at least one more season. "I don't see how they achieve it but it is 100 per cent factual that Real Madrid are pouring every resource they have got, whether it's strategic or financial or marketing in order to try and get Neymar."

They have spent around 100m on Brazilians no one has ever heard, so I wouldn't call all their business shrewd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure ideally they'd like to win everything, but I don't think Madrid and their fans even care that much about the league. They prefer to conserve energy for CL games. instead of arriving dead like Barca against Roma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sideshow Luiz 2,310 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I'm actually kind of optimistic about Eden staying. Unless we've already been hard at work on it, I can't see see us selling him in the shorter window with no time for a replacement. With the price tag we've put on him, we're telling him that we think he's at Neymar level, world record fee. Madrid, I'm not sure that they will pay it. For them, I'm sure that they would rather have Neymar for that kind of money. With Mbappe really emerging now (we all knew of him, but casuals like Americans who only watch the world cup, have now heard of him), I think PSG will make him the face of the franchise. Maybe not today (with Neymar there), but it's inevitable unless he becomes a flop (not likely). I could see Madrid going for Neymar, if not this window, then next summer.
