Chelsea Transfers

[Thor 2,685]

Unbelievable that we made profit off him. 

People need to give the board credit here. Everyone was on their case saying no ambition and shit moves, but they've hardly put a foot wrong since that horror first transfer window. 

I wish Felix the best though. He never really complained and seems enthusiastic to get his career back on track.

Rabbaj and Dastan are definitely worth keeping an eye on both look exciting.

Walsh is the most exciting, has unique skills, sort of a bit like Maradonna although too young still to forecast

Oh wow, Donnarumma may legitimately be leaving PSG. I know he’s considered bang average with his feet but should we not be considering him if his wage demands aren’t sky high? Especially with the Maresca/Italian connection.

Problem would of course be trying to shift Sanchez out. Would also surely mean the Penders doesn’t get a look in after his loan.

I think it is clear that his wages are sky high, otherwise a new deal would have been agreed.

Wonder what sky high is in this case, though. If he’s asking for £250k a week or something like that then obviously no chance we’d move for him.

He earns near the amount already, so definitely will be wanting more than that. He is a key player but replaceable, but he defo will be wanting to be amongst the top earners for them, if he isn't already. We won't offer more than what PSG are currently offering. I am sure.

Isn’t Chelsea now not betting everything on Penders? As I understand he is talented as courtois. And now they will betting how he will perform at Strasbourg and next year decide if he is will be Nr1 choise for Chelsea. But that is huge bet and not to try to look for better alternatives, because Sanchez is horrible keeper, people gets bit blind. He is performance at Club world does  not change fact. He is still terrible.

Malick Fofana’s has other plans than joining Everton Football Club. As told yesterday, the Belgian Red Devil knows some teams playing Champions League that are waiting to make room in the squad are interested in him.

Wouldn't be surprised if Spurs put in a bid, considering Gibbs White wasn't allowed to move from Forest. 

The other one would be Liverpool (especially if Diaz and Elliott are sold).

Ok, then yeah. We ain’t going near him.

Yes, I’ve said before that I think Penders is the long term hope. If he impresses at Strasbourg this coming season I think he walks right in as our #1 next summer.

Donnarumma would probably ask for massive wages and the deal would be dead (just like the Osimhen rumors when it looked like he may move to the Premier League).

The alternative option was Maignan from AC Milan but that deal fell apart over 3-4 million in transfer fee. 

Sanchez will still be #1 this season  (unfortunately)

According to reports Atletico negotiated a 20% cut when he gets sold again so let's not pretend they did a masterstroke.

EXCLUSIVE: Al Nassr agree deal to sign João Félix from Chelsea, here we go!

Player authorized to fly for medical and join Al Nassr, initial transfer fee worth €30m plus add-ons and heavy sell-on clause to meet Chelsea €50m valuation in future.

Paperwork being prepared.

We need to give 20% of the transfer to Atletico.

Or is it 20% of a profit?

[mkh 559]

Breaking: Joao Felix has been given permission to undergo his Al-Nassr medical. Total package with add-ons worth around £48m (€55m).

Chelsea also retain a sell-on clause, as called by @FabrizioRomano.

(Ben Jacobs)

[Pizy 18,846]

Quite a massive difference in price from what Fabrizio says and Jacobs. Which is it?
