Chelsea Transfers

Should Chelsea use their buy-back for Diego Moreira?

Maybe for another reason?

Chelsea apparently have a very favourable buy-back option to bring Diego Moreira back to Stamford Bridge.

According to Sky Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg, Borussia Dortmund are among the clubs to have Diego Moreira on their shortlist for the summer.

He states that Moreira is planning a move in the upcoming window, with a potential fee in the region of €30–40 million.

Chelsea are believed to hold a very favourable buy-back option.

I mean, of course they do. It’s literally their own club that they have ‘agreed’ the option with! It’s very easy for them to transfer players between Chelsea and Strasbourg.

So, should Chelsea sign Moreira back? Maybe they should sign him back to sell him for profit? Or maybe they need to just let Strasbourg have that profit?

I didn’t rate Moreira AT ALL when he arrived at Chelsea. I seriously thought he was awful and didn’t even look like a footballer. But he’s since improved a lot and has been decent at Strasbourg. Perhaps being in a league that is nowhere near as tough has really helped him. But he’s also clearly developed as a player.

But for me, no, I’d not be signing him back at Chelsea. We need to upgrade our left side in the attacking areas this summer, and by that I mean SERIOUSLY upgrade with a guaranteed starter who is MUCH better than what we have out there right now - a needle mover.

What’s your thoughts?

Darwin Nuñez…a striker who was ridiculed for being too mentally fragile to succeed at Liverpool. Even our incompetent directors would t do something THAT idiotic.

What a joke. Chelsea is the only club in the world that has to tell its most important players that they’ll be signing experienced players, something that should be normal at any club. What a farce.

💰 @JacobsBen on CFC's record-breaking agent fees: They [CFC hierarchy] have certain favored agents that help them broker deals, even if that agent doesn't directly represent a client. If you're using a broker and the player's agency, then that's two payments, not one.

I love the 51% of the voters. Money or not, they cannot be distracted, they just want to continue their life without Diego Moreira.

Diomande joining Arsenal will be bad news for us.. Quenda and Estevao better explode quickly and loudly or we will end up with Neto forever.

💥🔵Chelsea have entered the race for the 18 y/o talented centre-back Karim Coulibaly, who is seen as a top talent with huge potential. CFC are very impressed with his development.

A summer move is 100% planned. Several top clubs are scouting him, including Real Madrid, ManUtd, Newcastle, PSG and Napoli. 

Werder Bremen are still hoping for a fee of €40-50m.
