I strongly suspect that Chelsea knows what they are trying to accomplish, and if they are prioritizing Chilwell over other signings (not counting Havertz as I am confident it will happen) then they do so because they strongly believe in the player's quality. Let's keep in mind that we live in a world where Maguire and Rice are valued at 80m. Stop talking sense mate, there's mindless overreacting going on here and an agenda that needs pushing oldportblue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikkiCFC 8,319 Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 Did anyone expected Robertson to become this good when Liverpool signed him? They are same height and Andy was also 23 when Pool signed him. ulsterchelsea 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky reported before that Leicester softened their stance on their initial asking price. People are just speculating. We don't even know if the info that came out today is real.

We don't even know if the info that came out today is real. £80m she would do, and we would split it up into 2 or 3 payments, with £50m going this year, then £30m next, or, if Bayer would do it, £15m and £15m Bayer will never sell him for only €80m, that is only £72m pre covid the were talking €120m (£108m) pre covid Dortmund wanted €140m for Sancho (£127m), and they said nope to anything under €115m or so (£104m) which is around a 18% (little less) drop Bayer will drop the price on Havertz, but not by €40m, which is a 33% drop, or almost double the % of Sancho's drop (so far) in terms of discount 40m euros is shitload to a medium sized club like Bayer, and they are under little to no true pressure to sell him as he has not put in a transfer request Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superblue 6,372 Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 I haven't seen any monetary figures for Chilwell but I did read somewhere it would be a world record for a left back. Out of curiosity what is the current world record? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering all the rumours were Leicester demanding £80m (and have held firm in the past on their valuations for the likes of Drinkwater, Mahrez and Maguire) to knock that down to around £50m initial is pretty good going. The additional clauses have never really bothered me to be honest because most of them will usually relate to either or a combination of the team and player doing well.

In we are getting a CB and GK then it will already be in the budget wont it..... clubs don't do a deal at a time then check the change!

For Ben bloody chillwell. 😅😅 It does not make sense according to me. Barca and Real blew up - they are close to bankruptcy - because over the last few years they have spent huge amount of money on players that turned out to be bang average with very long contracts and huge package. Some players that even do not play for them; Real; Bales on 550k a week, James Rodriguez, etc.; Barca with Umtidi, Dembélé, etc. Bayern is very much well managed instead. They will never spend 80£+ or 100m Euros on a single player. No surprise they do not need to sign Havertz for the price tag fixed by Dortmund. They destroyed Barca without Harvertz. And Leipzig is doing very well without Werner, qualified for CL semi-finals, no need to spend crazy. 80m £ for a player with little experience might lead us to the same issues as faced by Real and Barca.

killer1257 3,282 Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 According to Nizaar Kinsella, it is not done yet. Havertz and Chilwell are the main targets for this transfer window Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
