Once again, they are the richest club in the world and can offer wages not many clubs can. It's just a matter of time before they will be back to challenging for the Top 4 in EPL.
not sure if you can offer much average player because how much will good/v.good/top player expect

Read this, stomach dropped, looked it up and it seems match is still on - 1 shitty thing I found out, who fecking plays at 5:30 on a Thursday... fecked up!
some countries have 6.01 day work free

OUT :
Casti
Conti

IN :
Botman
Ndombele <> Kessie
Alvarez

Sounds good to me
Forget it. Ndombele salary is a ridiculous 10.4m nett. That probably explain why financial mismanagement in football is at the all time high.

I expect for the next three seasons that Newcastle will be like Chelsea was just snapping at any chance and bringing whomever until it can be seen as an attractive destination.

But yeah - location is a bigger negative than position in the table.
I'm not sure even that Goal movie can help them sell the location.... But they can transform the whole city and provide executive travel to London and Europe for the players.

Remember Piatek? Apparently Genoa is close to resigning him... Guy said we were a stepping stone to Real Madrid. What the hell happened in Germany?

Viti seems like an interesting prospect.

Edit
:fp: link was already posted.
We have lazy wannabe scouts here and none have a scout report update?

Botman allegedly gave his consent for the transfer and pushes to arrive in Italy. With Milan, there is already an agreement in principle, but the real block is Lille's request.
The real block is rather Milan's wallet.

Of all people Milan fan should know that spending a lot of money doesn't guarantee you anything. Right now they have a higher chance of relegating than staying in EPL, not to mention top 4.
It will take them yeas of spending before they can start thinking of top 4. Before that they need to establish a cash flow into club. I read that EPL will apply more restrictive rules not allowing owners to sponsor their own clubs even via third-parties. There is also FFP which will restrain them somewhat. If they spend too much in short period, they'll be out of EL/CL/ConL.
Then in EPL there is already huge competition. Liverpool, MC, Chelsea, MU, Arsenal, Tottenham also rich and won't give up top 4 easily.
Players also not stupid. They'll need guarantees at least of statying in EPL before going there. Most talented have interest from top clubs anyway, why would they risk playing in championship?

This Botman saga looks like Simakan's last winter. A lot of rumors flying around about Simakan and then out of nowhere Tomori landed in Milano. Won't be surprised if it happens again.

I'm also getting the feeling Botman ain't happening.

Wouldn't mind seeing Belotti wrapped up as a summer present this month, to be honest.

If i rememer correctly wich ofcourse i am
I advocated for ragnicks arrival in AC Milan wich i believe is in italy and doesnt play in EPL

To replace our Serie F coach Stefano Pioli and our Serie X staff
I insist on a list of RnBers who were begging for him

U cant play with maguire matic fred and mctominay 40 year old ronaldo
Other players in their squad are also bad like wan bisakka raahford shaw etc etc ..good players are varane sancho de gea bruno pogba
Woodward is objectively speaking the worst TD in human history and it will take atleast 2/3 summers before they can play ragnickball and now hes just there to kickstart their seperation from english football mentality on the training field since the season was already lost

Mickey mouse serie a is different story...top coach here means simone inzaghi and pioli
In epl it means tuchel klopp guardiola and every squad has 400 mil transfer budget
Here in italy u can become bus driver to playing for Serie a 'top'

Just don't pass the ball to Bakayoko and we'll be alright.

Also, I just realized that Tonali is one yellow card away from suspension. He needs to pull one against either Roma or Venezia, as we might risk playing with Krunic - Bakayoko against Juve or Inter which would be a disaster.
