Verratti in the summer, Cesc and Matic for rotation/cover next season. I'm getting ahead of myself, that's FIFA talk. I like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucio 5,418 Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 And Kessie’s agent, George Atangana, says he is in discussions with Chelsea over a transfer. ‘Chelsea are very interested and it is a great club but we must take our time to consider all the options. ‘Now we are in January so he has to play at the Africa Cup of Nations for Ivory Coast so I am not going to rush anything,’ Atangana told The Guardian.

akgw13 867 Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 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. kellzfresh and TheIceMan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAM09 7,062 Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unionjack 7,531 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 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. Chelsea make £27m bid for the next Yaya Toure CHELSEA have failed with a bid worth £27m for Atalanta midfielder Franck Kessie. http://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/581882/Chelsea-Franck-Kessie-Transfer-News-Atalanta-Liverpool-Manchester-United-Arsenal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to be looking for better players then Moses/Alonso/Pedro/Willian. This season the current starting XI will do, we will win the league anyway. But for next season we need to be looking at upgrades to certain positions, this is a job for summer. Luckily this season we have Ake as cover for the left side, but he's still a wildcard because we don't know how good he actually is in that system. And for the right side we have Aina, Ivanovic and Azpi covering. This will have to do until the end of the season, which isn't far away anymore.
