would love to see a loan with option to buy type deal. Similar to James with Bayern.

As I said before we can buy him after the loan https://www.alfredopedulla.com/retroscena-kepa-promosso-sarri-ora-sconto-clausola-kovacic/

 

Chelsea asked Bilbao for a discount, they refused, so Chelsea decided to activate the full clause. Other targets (Butland, Oblak) are just agents sorting contracts. Real value Kovacic at €60-70m if Chelsea want to sign him permanently. (After his loan.)

Kovacic can press too. Imagine him along side Kante. Oh boy oh boy oh boy!

I want him at Chelsea since I saw his highlights when he was 17. I am trying not to get too excited but this is too good.

Why post something that is so clearly fake.

Should do a straight swap for Courtois.

What type of player is he? What's his style, what are his strenths and weaknesses (please no whoscored screenshots)?

From what I saw at Inter he is an all-rounded midfielder. Excels at passing and dribbling, and is capable of defence. I'd say he is stronger at carrying the ball than passing but that is okay, as Chelsea currently lack a 'midfield carrier'. He'd compliment Jorginho and Kante well, though that could be said about a lot of players (and for a lot to fail).

His biggest strength is his speed & dribbling ability. He is a hardworker while being technically gifted. Started as a #10 but has been deployed deeper by Inter & Madrid. He is hard working off the ball but isnt a destroyer like Kante/Fernandinho but his effort is definitely there on both ends. Is a fine passer but wont hit the killer pass like Fabregas/Jorginho. Doesn't seem to be much of a goal threat. For me he could fill in across any of our 3 midfield positions depending on opponents. He still has room to grow with consistent game time and fulfill his potential. But right now he can break the defensive lines and go on windy runs while also being a menace in defensive pressing. Only downside is lack of goal threat but maybe that can change with development or a different role in the system?

How does he fare under pressing? Good at keeping the ball, composed, or more towards Bakayoko? How are his long-shots? How many goals approximately does he have in him per season? Does he move towards the ball and ask for it or does he rather just wait for the ball to come to him?
