You are saying that Kaunde is a 'carthorse' in your opinion? (I don't really have a view on him.)

Expand  

Apparently he’s only known for his passes and isn’t much of a defender

Kurt Zouma's £25m move to West Ham from Chelsea is in the balance after complications with the 26-year-old France defender's medical. (Mirror)

Expand  

There is no complications with his medical though really, is there? Just a wanker talking about a player being injury prone despite missing 2 games in 5 years? West Ham are a marvel really. 

 

lol...

Don’t disagree he needs a loan, but a strange team to go to. We’d surely rather see him go to Germany or France, preferably France initially.

Funny reading all these reactions now about WH because when Super League was announced there was outrage because teams like WH could never play CL 😂

What haz that got to do with Zouma deal ? you were probably in favor of super league.

Tiemoué Bakayoko at AC Milan, it's done! The player is expected in the next few hours in Milan. Extension to Chelsea and loan with option to buy subject to number of matches played with AC Milan #Mercato#RMCLive

Expand  

Surely it is a conditional obligation then? Makes no sense to call it an option that is forcibly exercised if he reaches a certain number of games

 

tbis kounde Zouma conundrum pisses me off. Instead of exchanging CBs without really upgrading anything we should have brought that 4th CM. An injury to one or two midfielders and the whole season goes to shit

I think you may get close to 70m in the end. We have to move Zouma first plus we will raise more money from Anjorin deal and some others. 

I hope Sevilla also has ready replacement. 

Expand  

As I tell you, Sevilla is a selling club. Survive buying and selling players. It is the policy of Sevilla FC. Anyway, everything ends up closing for 65M € or similar. We urgently need two players. If Sevilla closes those 2 players before Monday and Chelsea raises the offer after the sale of Zouma, it is possible to do the operation on time. But there is very little left.

Tbh, Sevilla selling Kounde for £42m in this market would be berserk from their POV.

Zouma is joining London club from London club. Why having medical in Paris?

He was supposed to be there "partly due to personal reasons" as press reported

Saul Niguez's move to Chelsea breaks down over playing time concerns

https://www.90min.com/posts/Chelsea-transfer-news-saul-niguez-move-breaks-down-atletico-madrid

Atletico Madrid midfielder Saul Niguez has decided against a move to Chelsea this transfer window after he was not given assurances of regular playing time by Thomas Tuchel.

The 26-year-old has been given permission by Atletico to find another club this summer, and were willing to send him to the club of his choosing should they have agreed terms with them.

90min revealed on Thursday that Chelsea had reached an agreement with La Liga's champions, and that only a clause regarding a potential future transfer was all that was left to be ironed out.

However, the move has hit the rocks after Saul was not given assurances that he would consistently feature at Stamford Bridge.

He had also been attracting interest from Man Utd, but a move there now also looks unlikely after they reached a deal with Juventus to re-sign Cristiano Ronaldo.

Do we have a plan B? Or is it only Kounde now and business done?

Unfortunately this is the one negative of having such established players there already.

If we want a know your place 4th choice option the choices are look down the league in a way we would look for a second choice keeper or use one of our players in the other positions as the emergency option.

[ChelseaFanUK 1,014]

And yes Diario AS reckon its still on and talks continue just to sort out loan with option or obligation.  

 

Mundo Deportivo are a bit "meh" in terms of reliability i think anyway, id have thought Marca would be the ones for Madrid clubs...
