on the other hand we will prob really go for Ferguson... 19yo, from Brighton... it's an irresistible proposition.

Brighton is a club built as a honeypot for Chelsea FC... smart business.

why you say that that if the news tell us that oshimen want to join us?

It was a half joke. None of what I wrote is actually true, but it appears to be true based on recent business done between the clubs.

Number 452 of the CIES Football Observatory Weekly Post presents the 169 clubs in the world whose volume of incoming or outgoing player transactions over the last five seasons exceeded the €100 million threshold, as well as their net spending for the last ten, the last five and the last season. In terms of the volume of money exchanged, Chelsea is clearly in the lead with €2.572 billion, followed by Manchester City (€1.726) and Paris St-Germain (€1.404).

In total, 14 teams from seven countries have 'shuffled' over a billion euros in five seasons: five from England, two from Spain, two from Germany, two from Italy, one from France, one from Portugal and one from the Netherlands. Twenty-four countries, including five outside Europe, are represented among the 169 teams whose volume of transactions exceeded €100 million, with a maximum of 30 clubs for England.

In terms of balance sheets, the values for the current season range from -€384m for Al-Hilal to +€167m for Southampton. Over the last five seasons, the figures stretch from -€782m for Chelsea to +€354m for Benfica. Finally, over the last decade, the values go from -€1.348bn for Manchester United (with only Chelsea also totalling a >€1bn deficit) to +€732m for Benfica. All the sums presented include any add-ons, regardless of their effective payment.

Chelsea, Man Utd send scouts to watch Leny Yoro

Manchester United have stepped up their interest in LOSC Lille defender Leny Yoro but face stiff competition from Chelsea, according to HITC.

Manchester United have stepped up their interest in LOSC Lille defender Leny Yoro but face stiff competition from Chelsea, according to HITC.

Yoro is emerging as one of the brightest young talents in French football and his potential has caught the eye of clubs here in the Premier League.

HITC claims that Man Utd have identified the youngster as a potential signing and intensified their scouting of the player after sending representatives to watch him in action during Lille’s 3-0 win over Le Harve at the weekend.

However, United aren’t the only club showing a keen interest as the report says Chelsea also had scouts in the stands to watch Yoro put in another excellent display on Saturday.

Yoro has been an important first-team player for Lille this season. Despite being just 18, the Frenchman has produced mature displays in Ligue 1 consistently. There is no doubt that he has the quality to succeed in English football as well.

Although he needs to work on his physicality, he has the technical attributes to do well for Chelsea or Manchester United if he were to join one of the English giants this summer.

Chelsea, Man Utd need defensive reinforcements

Both Chelsea and Manchester United have been vulnerable defensively and they will need to improve in that department. Signing a quality central defender should be a top priority for them and it is hardly a surprise that they have been monitoring Yoro.

The teenager is an elite prospect with a bright future ahead of him and he could develop into a top class Premier League defender.

Manchester United have conceded 34 goals in 25 league matches and they will need to bring in upgrades for players like Jonny Evans in the summer. They also need a long-term replacement for Raphael Varane and Harry Maguire, and Yoro would certainly be a quality fit.

As for Chelsea, they have shipped 41 goals in the league and they must tighten up at the back if they want to return to the Champions League. The Blues have spent a fortune buying some of Europe’s top young talent and Yoro could be next on the list.

However, the duo will need to be prepared to pay big money if they want to sign the French youngster as Lille are reportedly demanding around £51m for his signature this summer.

Just stay away from young players for a while. 

Yeah we a team that lacks consistency in terms of performance and some actual proven quality yet folk want to keep signing young players who are just as likely to dip and need time to develop as opposed to looking for ready made quality. Its a weird one.

Can you blame them? With the amount of big money flops we've had over the years, its normal for us fans to have PTSD when ever we are linked with a big money striker.
