Other clubs transfer thread summer 2019 edition (Official: Madrid sign Hazard)

Claudius

They need to sell Bale. Pogba and Eriksen will hit them for 200 large. Bale and Isco will be the cornerstones of recouping that money.
Is Eriksen a great playmaker. If the assumption is that he will graduate and take over from Modric, is that good enough?

QuincyAbeyie

I think it would hit them for maybe 150, but maybe not. Eriksen is a very different kind of player than Modric is, so hard to compare. Modric in his prime was much better, Eriksen is probably the better player now. The latter has been underrated by us Arsenal supporters for a long time. I don't see how Pogba and Eriksen would work in a midfield trio though.

I don't see hiw they fit Pogba and Eriksen in the same team either. Pogba is clearly the one to get for them.

What's all this about? I can't seem to see anything specific about it. If there's a chance Madrid can get Neymar then they need to move heaven and earth.

ohboy

Supposedly Mbappe is not a fan of all the Brazilians at the club.

Neymar is fucked. I don’t think Real will go for him, so really it is only Barca. Would they take him back after the way he left, and the words thrown around?

City could be a wild card, but I think Neymar would be too rich for them.

QuincyAbeyie

The best LW in the world is not fucked. If PSG wants to sell him he can go to whatever club he'd like.

Claudius

The lovely thing for City, having a squad worth £1,1-1,2bn is that they can make moves. If they sell Sané for £60m and Gundogan for £40-50m, then, they’re well in range for making a play for Neymar in the £180-200m range with all their Champs League money. But knowing Pep and his desire to mould things, he would probably rather Mbappe or the cheaper, rawer Joao Felix

[size=small]“The players are going to have to assume their responsibilities even more than before. It has to be completely different. They will have to do more, work more… They are not here to have fun. And if they don’t agree with this point of view, the doors are open. Ciao! I no longer want to have superstar behaviour.”

a few french outlets have extrapolated that neymar is now on the sale block

People love to lay into Neymar but I dont think anyone at the club ever thought he was unprofessional. This sounds a lot more like it's aimed at the shisha gang at the club ie Kurzawa Rabiot or Mbappe at a stretch.

Paris St-Germain are willing to sell Brazil forward Neymar, 27. (L'Equipe - in French)

Alternatively, PSG will block any transfer for Neymar. (RMC Sport - in Spanish)

PSG president Nasser Al Khelaifi has warned he no longer wants to see "celebrity behaviour" from his players. (France Football - in French)

Felix off to Atletico to replace Griezmann

Clrnc

120m release clause activated. Really brave signing there from Atleti.

United have another 50m bid rejected by Palace for Wan Bissaka.

Claudius

Woop! Happy that Felix not coming to Premier League. The guy is a golden child. Would've hated to see Pep get his grubby hands on him.
Being out of the Champions League is really separating us from other clubs. Atletico are a small club relative to us. They have tons of stadium debt, so to spend all the Griezmann money is a real show of ambition

MistaT

Curious about Felix at Atletico Madrid, seems really risky for both sides. He'll have to amp up his defensive work and replace Griezman, while for Atletico it's a huge investment for someone who has only one (fantastic) season on display.

He has only one fantastic season on display because he's still a kid. He's the biggest talent of his age in the world.
As I've said before, I'm surprised that Atletico is throwing around this kind of cash on an individual player. When they were linked with Lacazette I was dumbfounded. This is at least 70% more, but for a bigger talent. I guess they might argue that even at that price, he might still have value runway. And they have to appease fans post Griezmann, something that's never crossed our minds

Ray

Big coup for Atletico, but would he want to go there, he could literally pick any club to play for. He's going to be worth 200m+ in a year

GooneriC

The fee does not matter, that's a big coup for Atletico . They basically swapped Griezmann for Felix. Griezmann is not worth anywhere near that amount either.

MuswellHillGooner

No messing about.

Simeone really is the polar opposite of Wenger.

jones

Apparently Mendes will pocket 30% of the fee - and he doesn't even represent the player 😆

What a bloke, you almost have to admire how he has the game in a fucking chokehold. He pockets 36m despite having no ties to the player, and it's not even like he's facilitating a transfer Atletico are simply activating a clause ffs

After this CAS ruling, clubs could cut out that type of agent's fee but i'm guessing the agent's union may find a way of getting revenge on the player in future.
