Why is he signing a new contract when he has interest from Chelsea and City??

Maybe he only signed the contract after Chelsea cancelled the deal? It's the only thing that makes sense.

Olise new exit clause 88 million euros.
The old one was 41 million euros.

Where are you seeing that? I'm hearing its only a £15-20m increase that has a start date of next summer. 

He may very well be a Chelsea player this time next year.

He's gonna regret it. No one is paying that. 

City might next summer if he comes back from injury as the same player. We certainly shouldn’t after this ordeal.

[Vesper 30,106]

What I would do now that Olise is not coming

the following will be funded and justified by my sales below

Buy Kudus

Buy Diogo Costa or Mamar 

Buy Alphonso Davies (€80 to €90m to Bayern should do it, that is £67m yo £76m) entice him that we will sometimes play him at RW/LW as well as LB (he really wants to play winger at times, as that is his original position)

Swap Lukaku plus a bit of cash for João Félix

Buy Toney in January

total cost around £230 to £270m (depending on which keeper we buy)

Sell

Sterling (Saudis)
Cucurella (Saudis)
Conor Gallagher
Trevoh Chalobah
Callum Hudson-Odoi
Hakim Ziyech
Malang Sarr
Broja 
Maatsen
Lewis Hall is now sold
Kepa (next season)
Fofana (next season, barring some miracle recovery back to form post-injury)

that is around £260-70m or so in revenue (a lot of it pure profit) and a shit tonne of salary off the books

Palace is guaranteed football and if the money is the same? I don’t blame him if he isn’t fussed about winning trophies, it’s his career to enjoy and do what he wants with. Good luck to the lad. Don’t think we will ever see him in a Chelsea shirt now and frankly if winning trophies isn’t top of his agenda we don’t want him here, but no hard feelings at all.

I am not sure I’m keen on Felix. He was a selfish player for us but never delivered, just looked slick without end product. I wonder if we can get a forward who can play on the wing, someone more like NJ than Mudryk.

Why are you insisting on Kudus? From what I heard from Ajax fans his footballing IQ is below zero and he is a prick

Ajax fas have a horrific record of predicting things

Felix is all bark and no bite. That Brennan Johnsons highlights of him playing in the Prem make him look like Maradonna in comparison to Felix.

Brennan Johnson is a bad idea. Worst case, go with what we have and wait for an opportunity to sign a class winger. 

If the club is worried about balancing books and is about to sell Lewis Hall, then going for Johnson makes even less sense

Where’s the Lavia announcement or leaked pics, btw?

Maybe Johnson replaces Broja?

50m pounds for brennan fucking johnson is insanity.
