Shady

I can't see Benzema going for less than £50million in this current market. The prices being banded about seem far too low.

Klaus

I think Di Maria's fee last season is a good benchmark. Benzema is a better player in every way and top strikers have never been rarer than they are now. If we got him for less than £60 million it would be a bit of a coup. Even writing that sentence feels ridiculous, but that's the state of the market.

Fuck knows how we got Ozil and Sanchez combined for around £80m

Klaus

Yup. I reckon those transfer fees are as impressive, relative to the level of respective player, as any signings Wenger has ever pulled off at Arsenal. Players like Sterling cost as much as Özil now. Firmino was as expensive as Sanchez. We were really ahead of the curve.

What does an Italian journalist knows about a transfer dealing of a French player between an English club and a Spanish club where none of the other 3 countries have any concrete sources?

Ben-ze-mah. You?

He's just trying to make a name for himself. Dont think he knows much.

He's an undercover ITK back channelling in on the negotiation Clrnc.

FantasticMrFox

Maybe he is not human and he is the actual fly on the wall, at the Bernabeu.

Or he's possibly the machine from Person of Interest.

To be fair, these things do happen, and it's rarely the big journalists who break the news. Remember how Fjørtoft broke the Özil transfer. It turned out he knew someone in the family.

What makes the Benzema rumour highly unlikely is that Giulianelli has a history of making these type of claims.

he broke wind, eh? 🙂

A source who is rarely wrong tells me Arsenal are close to the signing that would make them genuine contenders. We shall see...

The plot thickens.

Chelsea pulled off Fabregas and Costa for 60-65 Million last year which is pretty impressive as well.

What makes it even better is that they perhaps needed players the most in those exact positions.

Rarely wrong source y'all! 🙂
