If Haaland goes to Leipzig, Werner would be available to buy in Jan. Werner available in January? Says who? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leipzig are likely planning ahead for the inevitable departure of Werner. But they have no reason to sell in January when (a) they are still in all competitions (unlikely they will win the Champions League but still), (b) they have a good chance to win the Bundesliga and (c) "use" Werner to give Haaland time to settle into the team. Furthermore, the European Championship is coming up next summer. Why would Werner risk throwing away all the momentum and good work he's done this season to move in January and not getting selected for the tournament? IIRC, he spoke something about this recently. Unless he's guaranteed a first team place - ahead of Abraham for example (I doubt it) - he won't move next month. He's comfortable where he is at the moment at Leipzig, starting week in week out and scoring for fun. If anything, a club may try to do a Pulisic-type deal for Werner in January.

Haaland already said he will only move to a club who can guaranteed him a starter place. If Leipzig decide to buy him in Jan, they would definitely sell Werner.

Playing as backup here and there (Nagelsmann might even just play both him and Werner together) for 6 months is hardly gonna be an issue.

I dont know where you are getting the 80mil quote. Moreover thats their asking price, does not mean thats what he will go for. Like people have said 40m + Michy would be a good deal. Michy has just 1.5 years on his contract so will be going for a bargain anyways in 6 months. We can probably get £20-30m for Bats in a cash transfer to CP. They cannot score goals and he is popular their with the fans (my Dad's side of family are all season ticket holders.) Selling him for cash in Jan makes sense as his contract is running down. Giving him to Palace plus another £40m is eqivilent to giving Palace £60-70m for a second rate player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will be first choice CF there as Rashford and Martial can play wide and they will give him insane wages. Plus he grew up in that neck of the woods.

BDTips 34 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 20 hours ago, NikkiCFC said: They want 80m for Zaha. Giroud with 6 months left on contract in January will cost 6-7m max due to his age. they can expect 400 million. No one with a brain pays 80 million for Zaha. Zaha right now is not worth half of that. Zaha is not a player for Chelsea. Maybe an Everton of this life ... Nicco 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDTips 34 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Werner is the man. "According to reports, Werner's new deal includes a buyout clause which will start at €60 million in the summer of 2020 and drop from year to year." I think it would be better to wait until summer. Here would be a great deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blues Forever 1,232 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Definitely needs a new LB, CB, ST, RW, and probably AM. No idea when RLC will be back but, Mount current form is pretty poor almost offer zero creativity and Barkley is bang average. shrenshah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoroccanBlue 5,382 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 At this rate, we need a transfer window that is better and more efficient than the 2014/15 one to become competitive again. killer1257 and Vesper 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And with this crisis, surely we will act on impulse and despair, we will not have the necessary calm and planning. Now nobody knows what Frankie can give or how far he can go. What a bad day .
