Ricardo Rodriguez

[Chelsea4 1,521]

Arsenal and Man Utd are ready to battle it out for the signature of Wolfsburg LB Ricardo Rodriguez, who has a £19m release clause. (SportBild) Why are we not signing him?

Why would either Arsenal or United be after an expensive LB? United have Luke Shaw and Monreal just came off of an excellent season for Arsenal.

We really should be in for him and should've bought him a couple of years ago instead of Luis. Doubt were even interested, though. Baba will be given a chance I think.

Well Rodriguez would easily replace Monreal I think, a lot of Arsenal fans would say the same. You're right re United though, Mourinho seems to be a fan of Shaw and made inside remarks on how he was basically too expensive for us but now that he's got him.. 

The only reason I'm cautious is.. Well why's it taken so long for any real interest to emerge? This guy was the wankfest of this forum in the days we were looking more and more likely to sign Luis. Although I doubt even if we bought RR he would have not been sold anyway! . I don't know. Maybe it's because of all the bias views I've heard, but it makes me think there's gotta be a primary reason why no-one's approached to sign when he's supposedly the best in the world at what he does...

I like Baba. I'm going out on a limb here but a 21yr old with limited first team football on a team that is floundering is never the best intro to a new league. He has talent and once he gets acclimated with how the league is played he's gonna be a beast.

A release clause in Arsenal target Ricardo Rodriguez's contract is now active, according to the 23-year-old Wolfsburg defender's agent. (TMW Radio, via Daily Express) i wonder which club it is

No one, his agent is saying the release clause is now allowed to be triggered.

It won't be us, we will be sticking with Azpilicueta and Ivanovic.

Apparently told Wolfsburg he wants to leave this summer.

Don't worry, we spent 23 mill on Mr.Baba

footballghana.com broke the news on Baba Rahman's move more than a month ago, saying Conte is looking to replace him with Wolfsburg's Ricardo Rodriguez. They were spot on it seems and now that Baba Rahman's move is official, maybe we can expect Chelsea to approach Wolfsburg in the coming days? £21m release clause.

Anything for an attacking full back playing on their rightful side who knows how to cross properly and defend.

No more Azpi LB and Ivanovic RB, this area is of just of importance as a top CB IMO.
