José does it for a purpose. He is a smart man. He is backed up by years and years of trophies and winning mentality (I will give you that sometimes he goes overboard.) Lukaku is just an asshole. Must we bring this over to the Morata thread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I hope we land Morata, he is the next big thing in football ... best striker available in this transfer window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonsFinest 692 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Do people really read what I am saying. The transfer can't be done officialy until, at least, July 1. The only possible thing is for Us and Real to strike a deal in principle or a pre-contract. Doubt that could get reported. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cesc was confirmed before the world cup, Bosingwa before Euro 08, Paulo before Euro 04, Hazard Euro 12 etc... You can make signings any time, you just can't register them to play unless it's in the transfer window, but as their is no games between now and July 1st, the window is open by all intents and purposes.

I think they literally can't sell him before 15.7. because of buy back option from Real .. is that right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said it lukaku is an ass, but so is Mourinho regardless of purpose. I'm just bringing your way of double standards.

It's because Morata's Buy back option can be exercised only from 1st July to 15th. It's not about anouncing/registering, it's that I doubt we have the right to do so, before that period.

If you can't understand the difference in how i replied i can't help you. I'm closing it here because there is a huge "Alvaro Morata" title for this thread.

Although I'm not advocating this particular debate carrying on, I don't see the problem with things occasionally going off topic, many decent debate has started that way.

But if we take in consideration that the Mourinho thread is already quite active, plus another one or two thread in the transfer section have the last post with José mentioned in them, and Fernando's knack of repeating himself over and over without actually adding anything meaningful to the conversation e.g. his latest post here, it's better to drop it quickly and painlessly.

petre.ispirescu 4,928 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Spain have a relatively easy group at the Euros and Morata will lead the line for them in France. Could easily bang a few in the group stages and his price will go 15-20m up in a blink. Could flop as well, but I doubt it, Spain seems motivated than ever to do well in France. And they will. Watched Morata speaking today and he said that if a transfer is in place for him, he wants it to be done by the start of the tournament. He does not want to go into the tournament thinking of anything else but the national team. Spain only play on Monday so let's hope things clear up by then.

And with just our luck, Morata to score a hatrick in group stages, and to leave the Euros as the tournament's top goal scorer. I'd go mad, as I'm a huge Morata fan, and at 23, time is his best friend. That being said, I hope he does flop, and puts in forgettable performances at the Euros. As much as He may want the deal to get finished by Monday, that'll never happen in my opinion. Because it's not just Chelsea, Juve and Morata's agent involved, but RM too and their buyback option. Hopefully we can get this deal done regardless of his self impossed deadline, as I'd be over the moon to have him in Chelsea blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure what can be done by Monday, to be honest. I mean if Real Madrid are definitely not going to consider selling him (if it's up to them at the moment) until they buy him back, we have to wait until mid-July.as i think their option to buy him back only exists between July 1 and 15th. So could possibly try offering Juventus big money before then, as they technically own him. Weird situation, hopefully though we do get some news this week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would be the point of a binding buy-back clause if it can be circumvented merely by bringing the selling date forward? I'd be very surprised if that is really the case. Obviously if that loophole does exist then Real are a non-factor until July but, even if Real's buy back option is binding as of now, that needn't hold up the deal. If the two clubs want to do it, all that needs to happen is that we, or any buyer, just pay Real a fee to waive their right to repurchase Morata's contract. Rumour has it Real want €40m for his registration. If that is the figure agreed then the buyer just pays Juve the amount stipulated by the buy-back clause, and the rest to Real. Deal done.

Agree, but see my post after that. @petre.ispirescu What did he say about a transfer? If so be it, than a deal could be struck with RM early.

LAM09 7,056 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Lesser of two evils compared to Lukaku, but neither are an improvement over Costa IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's too big 625 Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 This is what gets me with us sometimes. We will pay out £40 million for Morata, but we aren't willing to pay more for Nainggolan when midfield is an area we need to upgrade most. Don't get me wrong, Morata will be a fantastic addition to our front line, but still feels like we're neglecting the areas we need to strengthen most.
