Better than Havertz.
For real?
Fucking annoying that the Saudi clubs seem to be coming in now and going to take all the washed up Chelsea players... Doubt they would have been able to get rid of the other wise..
Lovely
Clrnc they’ve already paid Juve £10-15m in loan fees - fairly sure they’ll have a preferential treatment clause
city in talks for gvardiol at 100m. I'd be surprised if they also dropped 100m on rice. 200m on 2 players in the same window isn't really their MO, strange as it sounds
City are loaded now though , that treble made them a lot of extra money
and they might have a few big names leaving (gundo, bernardo, walker, mahrez) so maybe they do splurge a bit
Why would he go there in his prime? Career suicide
Clrnc money.
£47m. Yikes
Pepe LeFrits Neves for £47m doesn't seem that crazy when Rice and Caicedo are going for £100m
No wonder Lopetegui is willing to stay. Dodgy AF

He's down to a year.
Nothing to see here, move along.....
JazzG City will just sell Gundogan to the Sheikh's brother for 500million, and FFP is settled.
JazzG
What a waste, 26 year old and think he'd do a job at a decent team. Bet his agent making a killing off this....
JazzG reminds me of when Carrasco moved to China at age 25. I’m sure he feels like a pioneer. Good for him if he enjoys it.
Saudi bought all of golf. I bet they’re confident they can buy football as well.
JazzG Bet his agent making a killing off this..
That was my first thought too. Agents will be licking their lips even more. There are some real bottom feeders wherever there is a lot of money.
Claudius The China stuff eventually died off but the Saudi's making a lot bigger effort to bring in top players. When they're 30+ you can understand they want one final pay day but to leave at your prime is a big deal.
Clrnc Chelsea always at the forefront of bending financial rules to their favour. Firstly with Abramovich and now this.
