Not like there are clubs lining up to pay for Felix. Even Villa wanted only a loan

I'd rather keep him if so, didn't we sell Pulisic for peanuts as well and now is worth 50m again.

AC Milan want to complete a deal for Joao Felix today or tomorrow and have told Chelsea their conditions to get the transfer done.

Milan, though, have set some clear conditions for Chelsea for a potential deal for Felix, who has scored seven goals and given two assists in 20 matches in all competitions this season.

The Rossoneri are keen on exclusively a loan deal for Felix. The Serie A club do not want an obligatory clause, but if pushed, they would be open to having an option to make the deal permanent at the end of the season for €40million (£33.43m / $41.5m).

Milan are willing to pay part of the Felix’s salary until the end of the season, but the Italian giants do not want to cover all of his wages and would want Chelsea to subsidise them.

Italian Clubs🥱🤮

Dusan Vlahovic and Douglas Luiz Desperate to Leave Juventus After Thiago Motta Fallout

https://cultofcalcio.com/dusan-vlahovic-douglas-luiz-desperate-to-leave-juventus/

Dusan Vlahovic and Douglas Luiz are reportedly determined to cut ties with Juventus after falling out of favor with Thiago Motta. According to La Repubblica via Ilbianconero, both players are unhappy with their current status at the Allianz Stadium and want out.

Vlahovic’s contract in Turin runs out in the summer of 2026. Since Juventus splashed out an eye-watering €70 million to sign him from Fiorentina in January 2022, they’re understandably eager to recoup their investment.

However, time has become a factor. Juventus must either extend Vlahovic’s contract soon or offload him in the summer. Otherwise, they’d risk losing him on a free transfer. Meanwhile, the Serbia international wouldn’t mind leaving the club at the end of the season.

Motta benched the 25-year-old in last weekend’s 2-1 away loss to Serie A leaders Napoli. Indeed, winter signing Randal Kolo Muani took his place and scored on his Juventus debut. Despite returning to the starting XI against Benfica on Wednesday, Vlahovic failed to score again.

Often blasted for his inconsistent form, he could soon wave goodbye to Juventus. The same goes for Douglas Luiz, who joined the club in a €50m deal from Aston Villa last summer. Despite arriving as a household name, the Brazilian midfielder has flopped in Serie A.

Manchester City and several other foreign sides are keen on the Juventus outcast. Meanwhile, the Turin giants are open to sanctioning his departure for the right price. Now that the player himself wants to leave, it’s only a matter of time before this nightmare ends.

So with Veiga and Chilwell out who is going to be LB backup? Gusto? Don't forget we recently let Maatsen and Hall... What if Cucurella gets injured? Or do something we all know he is capable of and gets suspension for some games? Not to mention we cannot count on James staying fit so Gusto would not be a solution either. Horrible planning. In midfield as well. Veiga played some games there and Casadei was pretty regular in Conference League. We lost these two options and Lavia is out... That means after Caicedo and Enzo we have just KDH who is again out of position in pivot. Not sure they have any idea what they are doing...

It will happen soon but he is still injured like Slonina and Datro Fofana.

We do have a lot of bodies so it makes sense trimming the squad. Gusto and Colwill will have to plug in at LB if Cucu is suspended/injured.

Hopefully pull the trigger on delap now... such a menace

Won't happen till the summer at least. Ipswich are in a relegation fight and selling Delap is suicidal at this point. 

If the deal that's possible now are Garnacho and Ferguson, I would pass and wait for the summer. As much as I wanted the club to strengthen this month, they've done squat for 30 days. At least don't end the month with panic buys

Not to worry, the directors will soon sign a new winger to make up for lack of reinforcements.

They're also holding on to the mighty Disasi, so that he can realize his true potential and become the leader Thiago Silva was for us.

Evan Ferguson had 2 knee injuries starting in September 2023, the second one, in April 2024 he destroyed his knee far worse than the first one

he will perhaps be Fofana 2.0 if we are stupid enough to buy him

13 total EPL career goals in 59 EPL games (2557 minutes)

ONE EPL goal since November 2023

and he had NO EPL goals in the last 15 EPL games he played BEFORE he blew out his knee in April 2024

 

 

That's staggering reading considering his age and the fees floated pre. There's a reason westham want him on loan, we have enough work in progress.

I was at work today and we were all chatting about strikers getting up there in age, some experience, even in midfield and then got onto defence (Rudi ofc).. my point is that I was actually struggling with available experience right now? Who would anyone take ?

Manchester United have already reached an agreement to sign Geovany Quenda for around £50m in the summer. 

Liverpool had also been interested in the 17-year old.

Garnacho🤔

Borussia Dortmund made fresh loan enquiry for Carney Chukwuemeka earlier today. Offer not accepted by CFC and they are not considered to be a front runner at this stage. Five other clubs, including Strasbourg, are keen too.

via@SJohnsonSport

the official bid Borussia Dortmund have submitted for Carney Chukwuemeka (21/🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿) is a loan offer with a €30m option to buy.

Olympique Marseille have agreed terms with Aaron Anselmino as loan move from Chelsea would not include any buy option clause.

Deal now depends on Chelsea and loan spots available, waiting for English club to make a decision on which player they will loan.
