Chelsea Transfers

Nkunku makes about as much sense at Man United as he does here. Not much, that is. I don’t see how he suits them.

Read that selling Garnacho will help them balance the books, but unsure how Nkunku would affect that.

Everton consider sending injured loan star Armando Broja back to Chelsea - in exchange for a midfielder. If he goes back, it raises the prospect of Dewsbury-Hall or Chukwuemeka going to Goodison.

Manchester United's Alejandro Garnacho will join Chelsea this month after the 20-year-old Argentina winger's talks over a switch to Napoli stalled. (Teamtalk), external

This one I like:

Barcelona are monitoring Nottingham Forest defender Murillo, with Juventus and Chelsea also interested in the 22-year-old Brazilian. (Sport - in Spanish)

Amazing.. Boehly transformed Chelsea an all you can eat restaurant for lowlife players like Everton.. They can come and go, pick and drop our goods.

Broja should have been sold ages ago.. This board got rid of used to important players and fan favourtites ruthless like a motherfucker, but recently they can't seem to succeed offloading who they want.

Hard to get rid of dead wood when they are on high wages for their age and experience. Some here may be finally learning that predicting outcomes with the youth is a lot harder in football than in other sports. Injuries alone can really fuck up their development.

It would be very cash positive for them from a financial fair play perspective, as they would instantly book a huge profit on Garnacho but take on (for this year) only the transfer fee divided by the years of Nkunku's contract, so maybe that might be like £60m in £10m out for the year for a £50m paper profit while being totally cash neutral in real terms (aside from Nkunku costing way more in wages surely).

It would be a strange deal for both clubs though - I mean I guess from our side we get his wages off the books as another highly paid player not delivering vs expectations of his salary. I would rather get Chilwell out of the bomb squad to Man Utd tbh, at least Nkunku has some value to us on the field.

Said 40m or no deal

I have been reading the same thing for the past year. It is meaningless. Forest will never sell him this January.

Spansh papers are absolute bollocks-mongers.

Chelsea target Yeremay Hernandez has signed a new contract with RC Deportivo, and his clause has been increased to €33m.

New board has been extremely successful in offloading players. Remember Lukaku? Saudi deals? Great money for Hutchinson, Maatsen, Hall, Mount, Havertz... 

[NikkiCFC 8,122]

So next season we can expect something like this:

LW Sancho and Garnacho

RW Neto and Madueke 

AM Palmer and Estevao 

CF Jackson and new striker 

Nkunku, Felix and Mudryk out. 

Guiu and Paez loans for a couple of years.

estevao is not a winger?

Both. But there were reports Chelsea is planning to utilize him as AM. I mean similar to Palmer. He was also winger before.

A deal that gets Nkunku out is one I can sign off on. Nkunku has been incredibly underwhelming for me. He isn't awful, but at best he only becomes an effective player, if the team is built around him. Garnacho, whilst raw, does have something about him where you can see him kicking on a couple of levels quite quickly. 

As a swap, and even a swap with a bit of funds on top, say £60m for Garnacho and £70m for Nkunku, is a good deal for us. This goes double as Nkunku is one of the top 5 earners on the books still.
