Chelsea have offered Batshuayi to Leeds for €25m. Leeds are considering if he fits in their spending budget this window.

Can’t see it happening. Bats is a nice guy and a hard worker but thick as a brush. Bielsa will have cardiac arrest trying to teach Bats his tactics

But Batshuayi has played under Bielsa at Marseille previously.

€25M for Michy would be like winning the lottery.

Sarri wanted Kepa at Napoli.

Expand  

Not only that, but a well-informed spanish journalist revealed at the time that Pepe Reina was the one who recommended him to Sarri having played together in the NT. Fits in with his demands of "ball playing GK" as well. Kepa was 100% Sarri.

I'm not sure if this has been posted, but we are getting really close to concluding the Havertz transfer!!

Who broke my twitter feed?

They have already played together in Marseille and apparently biesla thinks highly of him

Yes, they did. It was Michy's first season at OM. He played mostly as an impact sub though. Gignac was the starter at the time.

For me personally I would love to see Leipzig's CB Upamecano wearing Chelsea colors. He's one of, if not the best young defensive center backs in the world.  Furthermore,  IMHO, Sergio Reguilón Rodríguez is a better option than BC at Left Back.

 

Make the moves. Stop trying to build out so much with the englishmen!

I didn't say the manager had no voice, I said that their voice was one amongst many. For sure, they will put forward ideas but if that is what they are given is another matter. Kepa could potentially have been a Sarri signing, but it would've needed sign off from a number of others to be agreed. It is why I think Conte went crazy, he likely said Lukaku is No.1 choice but ended up with Morata who was probably his 2nd/3rd or something. However, Conte has a mercurial temperament so he was probably likely to go ape shit whenever he wasn't in control 100% 

All I was saying with my previous post is that signings at Chelsea are 100% not exclusively down to the manager. They have a say, but it agreement amongst a number of others.

I'd pay another team £5m for Batsh*t just so I didn't have to watch him fail to comprehend the offside rule in our colours again.

Yeah, Upamencano should be in our top 3 targets for sure, possibly even be No.1. However, he cannot be had until next year unless someone goes absolutely mental on the price.

And ironically, Reina is the keeper with the next worst save % outside of Kepa

If only we had gotten Nicolo Barella under Sarri...

Tbf she sanctioned his signing in the first place. She should be sacking whatever scout recommended the club sign him 😂
