I don´t know if holding out for 25m for Theo makes sense. Especially if it takes the whole window to get over 20m we might be not worse of getting 20m early and having the initiative in the market.

Why though?
That's the whole point of the Modric signing no?

Never been one to cite age as a problem,but a 40 year old and 32 year old being your midfield signings isn't great.
Happy about our midfield last season, were you?!

What on earth could Modric and Xhaka contribute. It really makes you think.

They're still mad at us for triggering Moratas release clause without "warning" them. Didn't know you need to be warned before someone triggers a clause you have agreed to insert in the contract.

Atletico is just such a despicable club.
No conjecture here.

Gianluca Di Marzio , journalist and expert in negotiations, spoke to Sky Calcio l'Originale. His words on the Theo Hernandez case:

"It seems to be over between Theo and Atletico Madrid. It's been a bit like being on a rollercoaster in these last few hours. The negotiations were going well, right up until this evening around 7pm. Atletico had raised the stakes by offering around 20 million for Theo, Milan continued to ask for more and then the Spaniards pulled out. We'll have to see how Theo's management will proceed, and if perhaps the Arab track can reopen...".

Moretto and Romano say Atletico has never increased their 15M offer. DiMarzio knows shit and copy cat Vitiello put his eggs in the wrong basket. Now he's desperate to come out of it at the top somehow.

"Caos" and apparently it's Milans fault.

Reminds me of the Paratici story where everyone but Moretto and Romano declared it was done. Then it wasn't and everyone looked lost so they blamed Milan. I'm not buying anything that doesn't come from Moretto or Romano these days.

🚨#Napoli and #Milan continue the dialogue for #Musah . The Azzurri do not intend to exceed 25M, bonuses included. It is being discussed, but in the event of a failure to reach an agreement by the beginning of the week, Napoli could change its objective


Another deal fucked up

He looks good. But looks kinda small, and I wonder if serie a is too much of a step up yet. Anyone know more about him?

I mean it is also difficult to say what is "wrong" to do. Even 15m is more than 0m next summer, but of course there also needs to be a bit of resilience.

Definitely not a CDM. But that's why we're getting Xhaka too. Right?

Defensive stats are the most iffy for me, Vitinha's defensive stats are horrific--but he looks like he isn't afraid of getting stuck in, I vaguely remember we played against him, but they got that red card.

Allegri wants passers, that much is clearly evident.

He’s played both as a 6 and 8. This year more box to box but previously played a lot as a deep lying playmaker. Sets the tempo, great at breaking the lines with his passing. Both Manchester clubs had been linked, as well as Dortmund. He reminds me of Ederson or Rice. Even some Barella to his game.

I think he’s a very good prospect and Xhaka views him as a “little brother” in the National team.

Caught my eyes lately in some NT games. I know he played for Lucerne not too long ago, but I'm not too attentive of Swiss League because it's a very low quality league. Lost sight of him when he went to Brugge but he's been good with the NT whenever I watched him.

Him, Ndoye and Rieder are a bit the leaders of the new young generation breaking through the ranks.
