After having their first offer of 18 million euros (5M fixed + 13M triggers) turned down, Chelsea have made a new bid for 16-year-old Gabriel Mec, from the Gremista youth team.

The English club has increased the fixed amount to 7 million euros along with 13 million euros in variables, totalling 20 million euros. The triggers in this new proposal are easier for the player to reach. In addition, Grêmio would retain a percentage of the player's economic rights - between 10 and 15 per cent.

I'm Dutch and a PSV supporter. Home and bored with the flu and so I got on a Chelsea forum. Hope you dont mind that I share my insight about Madueke as I obviously seen all his matches.  I see qu

Chelsea are close to agreeing a deal with Genk for Mike Penders.

The Blues are offering more than €20m package with a percentage on the future resale.

Genk now working on details to make the deal happen after getting an agreement in principle with BlueCo side.

Although neither of them were happy here, and one barely played for us, we signed a couple of world class players from Genk. It can't happen again can it?

I don't see other clubs fighting for 'our best CB'

Says more about the quality of our CB's. Even Trev 'fans' like me know his limitations, it is just his limitations aren't as bad as most of the others and his passing is underrated by most (not saying it is spectacular.)

The only thing that I have taken as a real positive this pre-season is that Disaster hasn't played at all. Hopefully, this indicates Enzo has realised he is a dud from the off.

Manchester United are considering  making a move for Ben Chilwell as he is not seen as a good fit for Maresca’s system at Chelsea.

But he’s a perfect fit for the treatment room.

That teenaged goalkeeper we’re linked with Mike Penders from Genk just started following us in IG so that’s clearly a done deal. Most expensive fee ever paid for a Belgian keeper apparently and this dude has only ONE senior appearance I’m reading?!

We must genuinely think this kid is Courtois regen.

Yeah last year he played in the youth team in Belgian second division.

I assume we are scouting him for a long time, cause 20m is a lot of money for unproven goalie.

I wonder if we are also scouting Karetsas, this young (16) Belgian/Greek could be a real gem. 2 years ago he rejected City and Ajax to join Genk from Anderlecht and will be first team member this year.

I have a hard time with this argument regarding numbers alone. I mean take aside any personal take on both players (I think Mount is a lot of more skillful and plays in a different role too), but accomplishments alone should make you pause when making this comparison IMO.
One can say that Conor has time to accomplish the same, but it's a very tall order given Mount's numbers in that CL run.

I'm OK with Conor leaving tbh. The fee does seem low esp for nowadays.

Last year of contract and fees have dropped this summer - The market is not what it was in 2022 or 2023. Everyone is being mindful of PSR

Smith Rowe off to Fulham for around the same money. You just have to laugh at times.

Smith Rowe had 2 years left on his deal. Gallagher has 1.

I can see Villa or Spurs matching Atletico's offer this week though. 35m pounds

How good is he? Hearing good things that he's tall, commanding and a good passer. But you hear good things about everyone these days - remembering all the good things said about Gabriel Slonina

If Chalobah or Gallagher played for Everton or Southampton right now and Chelsea were linked to them everyone here would be in total meltdown. Because they’re decent players and nothing more. 
 

Would Man City/Arse/Liverpool/Real Madrid/Bayern/PSG etc have Gallagher playing for them? Absolutely ZERO chance. Those clubs are playing at the level we should be playing at.

You’d think reading some Chelsea fans that were selling De Bruyne or Xavi. Conor is a “energy and hustle” player. That’s it. He doesn’t fit in a team that wants to play highly technical, quick pass and move football. End of.

Half our squad wouldn’t play for those teams never mind just Gallagher for fuck sakes 😂

If it hasn’t dawned on people now that we aren’t at that level then it never will. We haven’t been for a few years now. People tend to forget that.

And the squad is never going to be good enough unless we flip this transfer approach on its head and recruit some real quality not just potential. 

As a squad player, Gallagher is a very good player to have. Given he was our standout midfielder last season too, £30m is ludicrous. Football is a squad game these days. 

He is a better footballer than KDH from the get go too. Nothing going to change my mind on that. Having 1 good season in the best team in the championship isn’t going to change that, particularly given how average he looked in various PL seasons for Leicester.

Maybe KDH and Maresca were actually close at Leicester and he was keen on following his manager... it's not like we are short on midfielders, guys like Santos, Ugo, Carney were like 20+ million transfers.

Reece, Cucurella, Gusto, Colwill, Enzo, Caicedo, Lavia, Palmer could easily go elsewhere. 

The problem is, the rest of the squad is one of the weakest I've seen at Chelsea in a long long time, particularly in key positions such as GK, CB, ST.   We really went from Cudicini/Cech/Courtois to Kepa then to reserve team GK's in Sanchez/Petrovic.

That's not the point, Smith Rowe has played like 20 PL games in 2 seasons and yet they get 34 million for him....and we can't somehow get 40 million for Gallagher who is one of the fitter players in the league.   I get his limitations as a midfielder but he's worth more than 35 million.

KDH will just be ratter like Gallagher is, ratting about the pitch, limited and a few decent performances but that's that

I actually think KDH will suprise alot on here, he knows this system inside out and plays at the heart of it, I won't be surprised if he has a good season at all.
