Chelsea Transfers

[mkh 571]

During the talks between Bayern and Pini Zahavi over Leroy Sané, the name of Christopher Nkunku, also represented by Zahavi, was mentioned. Max Eberl had spoken to Nkunku in January and presented him with a concrete plan. The Frenchman will leave Chelsea this summer and is expected to cost less than his €35m market value [@altobelli13, @cfbayern]

Does anyone know anywhere else to talk about transfers where people don’t cry so much when we don’t land everyone we are apparently in for? 
 

It’s hard to sift through and act like the world is over when we’ve been on a clear upwards trajectory the last 3 years.

It baffles me more. The meltdown here is devastating. Most also think anyone out there is always an automatic upgrade on our existing squad players.

Chelsea are considering taking Mike Maignan next year on a free transfer.

Yeah we've got until the 1st of September to make signings and sell players. Some need to relax.

Reading that Cherki is some wizard we missed out on and how other clubs do better business. 

People here were saying hell no when they wanted 18 mil last season lol...

 

If we sure up LW, add a CB and get a better keeper - we have a great team that will continue to grow. We have the best midfield depth in the world IMO.

If we add Rogers or Gittens, and a highly rated CB - this would be one of our best windows in years. And I say that after we've had the likes of Palmer and Caicedo come in windows.

What I mean is the manager wants them so you’d think the club would push a bit beyond what they initially intended to to reward Maresca for achieving his goals this last season. If he wanted Maignan and the only intended to go to £12.5m, would it have really been a big deal to go to £20m?

It just seems like insane logic having seen what they’ve spent on complete rando’s for years now. For literal kids aged 17 or 18 they’re willing to pay whatever is necessary even if that’s £40m+ yet for one the premier keepers who is also a leader in the squad which we badly need, we blow up the deal that would’ve been cheaper than what we paid for Sanchez.

On this one occasion, I actually get where the club is coming from. Milan are just trying to take advantage of the CWC deadline. Let them have an unhappy player and stop doing dealings with them. It's very straightforward.

Petrovic being excluded is the odd decision (they view this as a 24/25 tournament regarding loan players yet add Santos to the squad). Idiotic choices like this are what annoy me most.

Situation with Kendry Paez has changed. Player was expecting to go to the Club World Cup last week and then have his future decided. #CFC have determined he is not part of their squad, with a Strasbourg loan anticipated. Paez understood to be disappointed as summer plans altered.

Who on earth thought it was smart to tell him he'd be part of the squad to begin with? Shit like this will have players regretting making the switch before even playing the game.

There's normally always a bit of truth in these rumours. How much is the debatable part.

I’m beyond furious with how this club is being ran… the Petrovic news has tipped me over the edge. Then to rub it in, there are genuinely fans backing the unforgivable decisions being made at this club. 
 

My blood is boiling. Surely I can’t be the only one.
