They probably can if they are aware other big clubs are interested and will come for him in the summer. An advantage we have of course is that we have an Italian manager who will be familiar with him, we have Jorginho who is familiar with him, and we have an opening now in our squad.

He perfectly fits the profile of player the board loves. Super young, super talented, his value only goes up and up.

we also have his former manager (Magic Box)

Something tells me this is one of those rumours that wont go away, but never happens just like Rugani.

 

Seems a talent though, hopefully Zola and Sarri can swing it our way.   £45m is a lot of money for Cagliari

If we don't sign Barella in this window I can see Juventus going for him in the summer

This could be a real game changing signing for us. Our midfield has been sub par for quite some time. Barella would be that real classy engine we have been lacking. A different engine to what Kante is.

From that report on Corriere dello Sport claim we want to have bought either Barella or Paredes before the end of the week

And both of them (at least everything that Ive managed to find about them both) are very good. So I'd be hapy with either right now.

The problem is that Granny wont pay the asking price for Barella so our chice is limited. So if we cant sign Paredes we are royally fucked!

I'm like you mate I'm happy with either Barella or Paredes I don't know why we are chasing midfielders we need a striker more than a midfielder 2bh

We do also need a GOAL SCORING ACM. The more goal scoring options we have the better,

Pulisic is good theres no doubt. I like that he gets behind defenders and has a very good overall footballing head.

But he isn't one to give us a lot of G & A's YET!.

Inter is his biggest legit Italian suitor

Same for Sandro Tonali

although Juve is indeed sniffing around both

We also have EX managers that a lot of current and EX players would never play for again.

Lets pray that the Magic Box/Barella relations are friendly ones.

But like I said Granny wont pay the asking price ffs! Penny pinching instead of paying up for players we need

Did they not ask for a 15m discount those clowns? also 3m after tax is like 110k per week gross. Again we should be able to easily edge them out. and 45m € that is sounds like a fair price for him if he is as good as people here say

That would suck to lose this guy to Napoli. 

Get it done now!
