Chelsea Transfers

No deal for Fofana is imminent then if he’s starting for Leicester. Like Alonso yesterday, you wouldn’t want a player getting injured if a move is on the brink. Especially not an £80m one.

Hope we really push this coming week to have him in for the Spuds game.

But if club could get fontana, and able to replace jorginho with better player. it means we will have very strong personnel when it comes to defence (thiago, koulibally, fontana, james, cucurella, chilwell + proper dm) sometimes i even thinking, even with crazy manager like bielsa, probably our defence just gonna be fine

While manager like bielsa, in the other hand, probably he able to coach and develop much better attacking cohesive unit.
Something that tuchel incapable to convince us even for almost 2 year in here. Our attacking play in too many matches is still really dross, seeing our team only able to create chances from wingbacks is sad

I think the difference there is that Leicester would be selling Fofana reluctantly, whereas having bought Cucurella we'd be looking to move Alonso on.

So for them the incentive to leave him out isn't really there, compared to us protecting Alonso from injury.

Would guess somewhere around 30M€ give or take a few.

I'm actually more interested if he's taking a wage cut or if there's some kind of salary compensation included in the deal. No way Leipzig are paying as much as he earned with us.

Best case scenario would be a fee of +30M€ and player taking a wage cut so we'll get him off the books completely. That'd be a total saving of £23M a year on the club's books for wages+amortisation.

Some of the rumours coming out last week were that he'd be willing to take a wage cut to facilitate a move. At that point it looked like being a loan deal and seemed to suggest he'd drop his wages to fit into Leipzig's pay structure. I don't see any reason why that would change for a permanent move, as it seems that he wants to go back to Germany and be playing regularly.

Good luck to him, he's a very likeable character and I would have loved things to work out here but he just doesn't have the technical ability to fit in. He'll be more suited back in Germany to the higher lines and playing off the shoulder of the last defender.

Fabrizio talk in a permament deal.

So we get rid of Alonso and Werner in first Todd window? Build him a statue!

Lukaku as well.

The question is clear - will you give heaps of money (80millions and up) for a promising player, but still unproven.

Or would you give  cheap money for someone like Lewis Dunk, Coady, etc .

Or you could give €70m to Inter for world class CB.

Transfer maybe? a swap deal for a certain Germans 😜

[Alabama 1,992]

Timo Werner fee is €30m....yeah its a permanent deal...

[Blues Forever 1,232]

 

[Alabama 1,992]

Can we bring in Leroy Sane to replace Werner...

[Jype 6,398]

30-35M€ plus bonuses isn't a bad deal for Werner, as long as there are no salary compensations included.

[Pizy 18,368]

I think our new forward will be one of the Barca strikers. They need wages off their books and will let one of Auba or Memphis go.
