Franck Kessié

[akgw13 867]

I hope we can close this deal in January. even if it means loaning him back for the remainder of the season. He is the prototypical type of CM Conte wants and he is already playing the system! Seems to be a little more well rounded than bakayoko who seems to be more defensive(only off what I have read). going forward he could be a major talent especially with conte coaching him.

He is playing in afcon, so I doubt he will make move until he returns.

Him being in Gabon won't stop any potential move if someone meets Atalanta's price.

[Unionjack 7,531]

Apparently we have offered £21mill raising to £27 with bonus etc AND they keep him till summer.

Soi far its a no go. HE APPARENTLY wants the move but wont push the move with his team. We are still in talks with Atalanta and him but Ive seen reports they wont sell him at any price.

Think he will have to push it or round 2 in summer.

It says we have offered to do that.We need to startt putting our hands in our pocket. Its OK going bonkers when we make 30 mill on Oscar but its doing us no good i the bank.

I can't remember if i read the point on here or elsewhere (if it was here, sorry for lack of credit tag) but it was essentially that all of the feeder clubs are still holding out for top dollar until the last moment, there is still 6 days(not including today) left in the transfer window. Rumblings will continue to grow and I am hopeful we can pick up some players. Buy + Loan back is what will get this deal done, just a matter of them wanting to cash in now or the summer when bidding war can happen

We really missed out not going in for Gagliardini earlier in the window. He is the exact profile of CM that we need. Been watching him over at Inter and man he looks like the real fuckin deal. Early impressions have him looking like another quazi Nainggolan/Thiago Motta type CM. 

But i'm happy Inter signed him. We will rise up again! 

 

Not too fussed if we don't sign Kessie tbh. Gun to my head, if I had to choose between Kessie & Bakayoko (both whom I've seen via youtube lol), I'd rather the latter. We'll see what happens.
