Vesper 30,172 Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Club chief personally flies star out of Chelsea and other potential Blues exits https://thedailybriefing.io/i/136516336/club-chief-personally-flies-star-out-of-Chelsea-and-other-potential-blues-exits Chelsea will be very busy with outgoings right up until the transfer window shuts. Bayern want to sign Trevoh Chalobah, who doesn’t look like getting many minutes if stays at Chelsea. The German champions have already had a loan bid rejected and are still in talks. Chelsea want a permanent sale and expect a £50m fee. Bayern will consider Southampton’s Armel Bella-Kotchap if they can’t strike a deal for Chalobah. Conor Gallagher also faces an uncertain future but has been playing for Chelsea under Mauricio Pochettino and is content to stay and fight for his place. Bayern, West Ham and Spurs have all looked at Gallagher during different parts of the window. Everton and Newcastle held a historical interest as well, but are not active currently. Brighton really like Gallagher, but not his wages, and that’s why nothing has materialised to date. Chelsea will listen to offers should they arrive around the £50m mark. Romelu Lukaku is another Chelsea outgoing that’s basically done. He is off to Rome today to finalise his season-long loan after a lengthy and messy saga involving Inter Milan and Juventus. Believe it or not, Roma owner Dan Friedkin, who is a certified pilot, personally flew him over! My understanding is the fee is £8m (higher than reported) and Lukaku is more than halving his wage. Chelsea have also inserted a €45m release clause into his contract. This has always been the ballpark required for a permanent sale.

There is no point in replacing Nkunku with some unproven gamble a la Cherki or Barcola. How about a 30m bid for Kai Havertz Vesper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I’m sure he’d be happy to return here. I’m guessing his wages are the biggest hurdle or many top clubs would have been interested. Felix only started whoring after Barca when multiple top clubs had already rejected the idea of signing him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duppy Conqueror 1,534 Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Be good if we could get a good defensive fullback that can play either side,give us some depth and can flex Maatsen about. I want CuCu the fraggle rock puppet gone.but still Chilly is only slightly more durable than RJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,903 Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 It’s a bit weird, the Cucu situation. Luke Shaw’s injury isn’t severe. He’ll be back in just a few weeks. So then Cucu goes to their bench and is right back into the same situation he’s in here. With as injury prone as Chilly is you’d think Cucu would fancy his chances of getting more minutes for Chelsea than for United. But perhaps Poch has told him in no uncertain terms that even Maatsen is ahead of him now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikkiCFC 8,319 Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Ten Hag is clown for insisting on Mount and Cucurella. And they play dull football. But thanks I guess. Some people actually rate him including majority United fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mhsc 1,097 Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Dunno what personal terms needed to be agreed, probably they're covering his wages and...you know..that's it. Guess it REALLY means that he is up for the move, and so are they. Phenomenal work by the directors to clear out the dross.

Tbh I'm not that familiar with Man Utd's current needs but "on paper" Cucurella can cover LB, LCB, and DM. He's a utility player. They might get use out of him over a season but it is a pretty desperate signing, can't imagine what Utd fans are thinking lmao.

A lot of them are in meltdown because they know he’s shit and saying we have scammed them again after Mount. And then there’s a bunch of them like Mark Goldbridge who are rationalizing with themselves like some of us were. “Maybe we’ll get the Brighton Cucu from 2 years ago!” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
