Maybe we get some smaller compensation and they want the security. Makes sense if the club didnt actually plan to get him back. 

A compensation makes no sense as well. Better off just negotiate for a sell-on fee if we really don't want to sign him. And based on this tweet, it seems like Sassuolo were the ones who initiated the talks.

Napoli wants him...They cant deal with Naples with the buy back clause still in place...

Unless I'm missing something here, the buy back clause is just for us to buy Boga back at a set price, if we want to. Otherwise, Sassuolo can do whatever they want with him. This isn't the first refusal clause.

we are crazy to not buy him for only £12.7m

he is worth triple that

I guess if we do a sell on clause then oki

that means we really do not want him

Should buy Boga back to go mess about with De Laurentiis!

I just hope the board doesnt shit away a potential windfall

I am beside myself that Lampard inferred we are actually in talks to renew both Pedro and Willian 

https://www.livesoccertv.com/news/33334/lampard-offers-update-on-willian-s-future-after-chelsea-confirm-ziyech-signing/

The North African is a proven goalscorer and playmaker, possessing an eye for both finding the back of the netting and setting up team-mates. As a result, many now wonder whether the likes of Willian and Pedro will be deemed surplus to requirements, given that both of their contracts expire this summer.

However, Frank Lampard has touched upon this topic, insisting that this is not the case. Given that the Premier League is a tough league to adapt to, Chelsea are still keen on retaining the services of the Brazilian and Spaniard.

When asked if Willian and Pedro are no longer needed at Stamford Bridge, Super Frank said (as per Goal): “No it doesn’t.

“Conversations are ongoing with those players. They have both been successful players with the club.”

I don't know if it was just like a throwaway line but I was shocked to hear that he said talks are ongoing with both players. With Willian, yeah oookay...but Pedro!?

or Lampard is just try to keep players focus never fully believe a manager at a press conference.

This. 

Regarding Sancho, the only way I can see this happening is if both Willian and Pedro leave, along with Barkley. 

CAM - Ziyech/RLC/Mount

RW - Pulisic/CHO/Mount

LW - Sancho/Ziyech

CM - Jorginho/Kante/Kovacic/RLC

In regards to Sancho, I don't think our chances of signing him will depend on whether we finish in the Top 4, TBH.

I wish there is a time machine for us to just skip to the summer and see how all of this pans out. Every day, we get media journalists trying to be the ITK, trying to be first to get the juiciest transfer story. 

Heck, the summer would also help kill the BS that is the coronavirus from continuing to spread around!

My father says that if Shitty's ban is upheld, then Sancho's right of refusal clause with them is more than likely null and void

bad faith nullification

if the board got Sancho and Ziyech done before the summer would you forgive them?

Think the fans would be happier if the board just make signings that fixes our flaws in the team (e.g. ST, LB). It might be nice for fans if we sign Sancho but if that means our transfer budget goes down the drain because of one player and we're still left wanting in other areas, then what's the point? We would likely still be complaining about the same issues next season (e.g. create chances but don't score enough, have a shitty LB/why is Azpi still playing at LB!?).
