arsenal with ucl it is a much strong contender to get calafiorin than us

they play a back 4

and their LCB Gabriel is tied with Bastoni as the most valued on the planet

Calafiori can play LB

but Arse has 4 LBs already

What’s strange is that despite multiple reporters saying for quite a while that we want a versatile left footed defender we haven’t really been linked with anyone other than Calafiori. So I wonder who the alternatives are.

Think its because Calafiori is a unique opportunity. We might stick with Chilwell if we can't get him

All players with name Bakayoko and from Holland should be banned from ever coming here.

Tiemoué Bakayoko is French, and never played in the Netherlands

4 LBSs on paper but widely suspected that at least 2 of Tierney, Kiwior & Tavares will all be available and leave. If not all 3.

Particularly given Tierney and Tavares both spent time out on loan last season. Also huge links with Italian teams for Kiwior who was repeatedly in and out the Arsenal team too.

Fabrizio is saying only two clubs in talks for Calafiori - Arsenal and Chelsea in that order as of now. Long-term proposal made by Arsenal. Chelsea are still there.

We will get him, I still believe.

Think Arsenal may have a bargaining chip with Kiwior.

Not seen anything official with him being discussed in a deal but he is a player who is a left footed CB who also plays left back…

Would be surprised if they don’t try using him as a makeweight or offer them to Bologna in a separate deal to replace Calafiori, particularly given he’s played in Italy before at Spezia.

We can’t even afford £42m without trying to throw in players these days? 

Whatever. Let Arse have him. Go for an actual specialist LB instead rather than a CB who can also play LB.

[TheHulk 2,482]

We can't lose Calafiori to Arsenal, can you imagine going through hell and earth to get that complete clown Mudryk over them only to lose out for an actual quality player.

My thoughts as well, these clowns backed themselves in a corner burning all available money and now all they have left is offering player exchanges no one gives a fuck.

If we’re both offering the same money and they’re actually speaking to the player first then I’m not sure we can win.

It’s not like the Roman days where we can blow any competition out of the water with higher wages. Arse probably offer higher wages than us now. Add UCL football, the prospect of winning the PL, and them being much more stable than us and it’s kind of a no brainer to choose them over us at the moment.

our only hope is the italian manager.

I don’t think the added player as to get him on the cheap. Calafiori has a 50% sell on fee from his previous club. The player is just to sweeten the deal so Bologna has both cash and a replacement

Never heard of him. 😅

Fluminense above is the "geriatric" team of the Brazilian league; Marcelo former Real Madrid, now carrying a fat belly, is the left-back. Fluminense is dead last in the standings for that reason.
