That could be a huge dent in our transfer plans if true. Supposedly our top two targets. Wouldn't surprise me at all if Koke signs a new contract since he loves the club.

The bad thing about signing player with a release clause, is that it will depend on what the player himself want. If he want to force the move, he just need to refuse any offered contract his club given. Basically the club are fully realized it when they sign that player with particular release clause, they couldn't do anything if any other club meet the sum anytime.

In other words, they are already too late.

I like last season Atletico, and I think that the best team they have for years. Winning La Liga was a huge achievement. But I don't think they could repeat that again with Barca and Real Madrid domination and continuous spending. Also in CL. Copa del Rey might their only best chance for silverware in every season since now. Griezmann should have realized this, if he is clever enough, he wouldn't pass the chance we offered. Joining Chelsea much more promising for silverware, including CL. And more money of course.

Out of the 2, and given the rumours of Jorge Mendes etc, my bet is Koke renews, Griezmann likely joins.

still dont get why he would leave after spending only a single season with them? when was the last time this happened for a player on a long term [first] contract.

The first class train will not passing by your station twice. Better go in when you have a chance.

If he can cope physicaly with PL, I think he will be a hit once he gets used to team.

Fact that he played for atletico for whole year is definately plus.

The physicality of England is a myth. If he can do it at La Real and Atleti he will be fine in England.

Haha, not for Cuadrado!

Cuadrado is just shit. Nevermind the physicality.

Tell that to Hazard.

100+ fouls on him.

Apart from trophies and money, players want to play football. He would not be a guaranteed starter here. Of course money can sway anyone, but look how long its taking Cuadrado to gain a starting position.

Yea, if Mata can do well here anyone can.

Tell that to Hazard. [emoji38]

That's not cause of the physiciality, it's cause of Eden's style. He gets fouls in Europe too.

Reports saying there has been a verbal agreement between him and us, regarding the transfer.
