Depend on Marina, she can pay or just get another CB.

or stick with what we have - Rudiger, Silva, Chris, Azpi, Chalobah and Ampadu(?) is a good enough set of options at centre-back.

I don't mind missing out on Kounde, but we do need another CB since we already sold Zouma.

Kounde was being signed because of the ambiguity over Rudiger's future. Wouldn't say its a hole in the squad that needs immediate filling. Can address this position next summer too when Kounde's value decreases

We can, but it's a risky move given this season is probably the last for Silva and Rudiger could negotiate with another clubs in Jan.

Just get Lacroix for half the dough. Far better player, instrumental for the current Bundesliga leaders who unlike Sevilla have not drawn against some joke team that literally translates to "moose" in German.

they can negotiate yes but they can leave only at the end of the season - we are solid for another year.

Sule could be another option, he has been good lately.

I strongly doubt Bayern will sell Süle this late in the window plus they hate doing business with us.

€30m - €35m will be enough for the to sell Sule. Bayern still have Kouassi and Chris Richard, Pavard could also play as a CB.

 I have seen many fans of your club celebrate as a title that Marina could sign Kounde for 50. If you do not understand that presenting an offer of 50 is laughable, you have a problem.

 

all you are doing is repeating the same lies and slanders based off fucking inventions of the shit-mongering trolls, shills, dupes, and liars who infest the press, dodgy websites, and social media over and over

I don't know if they are rumors or not. I tell you the only reality. Sevilla FC is a selling club. He is open to selling his player on his terms. The one who sells sets the price. I have seen many fans of your club celebrate as a title that Marina could sign Kounde for 50. If you do not understand that presenting an offer of 50 is laughable, you have a problem.

Sevilla FC turned down two offers from Manchester City last year. I leave you a link where you can read the two offers. In the end, City decided to sign Rube Dias from Benfica for 60 + Otamendi.

Now it is impossible to sell. Sevilla simply send your club to pay the clause if you want the player. As happened with the City you can retire and the player stays.

Not really....we are Chelsea, we don't give a fuck how much we pay for some inferior player. I understand you can't tell the difference between that and celebrating an actual title. But other than your club, we have recently won a couple and trust me those celebrations were quite different.

Also why should reliable outlets make up that verbal agreement?

Let's take your position for a moment and not believe anything we read in the media and there is no deal on the cards for the midget. What business you have here then?

Why on earth would we sell Zouma before any Koundé deal was also sealed and signed simultaneously? 😑😑😑

If you’d have told us at the start of the window that we’d only make 1 signing I don’t think anyone would’ve believed it.

old supposed target I went bonkers on (I was against it hard)

Chelsea deal for Kounde looks over

https://theathletic.com/2796473/2021/08/30/ornstein-edwards-expected-to-leave-liverpool-kounde-Chelsea-deal-unlikely-arsenal-lose-coach-garry/

Chelsea have halted their proposed signing of defender Jules Kounde and are not expected to resurrect the deal unless Sevilla reduce their asking price.

The France international looked certain to be the next expensive arrival at Stamford Bridge following the £98.5 million acquisition of Romelu Lukaku.

As The Athletic revealed in July, Chelsea have been pursuing the centre-back for two years and were pushing to get a deal done this summer. Sources have also revealed how coach Thomas Tuchel has been talking about his potential arrival with members of the senior squad.

But in a dramatic turn of events, Chelsea have decided to stop their pursuit because Sevilla suddenly increased the asking price. It is believed Chelsea thought they had a verbal agreement already in place over the fee, but the La Liga club are now said to be requesting €15 million (around £12.8 million) more than was originally discussed.

Chelsea have opted not to increase their offer and, if Sevilla do not lower their demands, are set to stick with their existing options, possibly with the proviso of addressing the situation in January.

Get Tchouameni instead at least.

I was just typing that!

[OneMoSalah 8,809]

So selling Zouma and not getting another CB? Well that is, well… daft.

[milka 3,358]

So Kounde - Off and Saul -  Off

Panic Buy - ON .

Not really we already have Chalobah.

True enough but still, its a position we are weaker in now with the sale of Kurt, even if he isn’t the best player out there. 

Chalobahs done well but we have to expect that he is not the finished article and may have games in midfield also this season if we don’t go for a midfielder.

[Vesper 29,152]

CB's we still have as of this minute

  
Andreas Christensen  
Antonio Rüdiger    
Thiago Silva
César Azpilicueta     (RB, RWB too)
Reece James            (RB, RWB too)
Trevoh Chalobah

 

these need to go out on loan ASAP:

Ethan Ampadu  
Malang Sarr 
Lewis Baker    (played well there in pre season)
