sounds like he's ready to go if a deal can be struck. I get Darwin vibes from him. super athleticism and pace. could be a beast if he pulls it all together, or could frustrate massively. either way, we're at the point where we probably have to roll the dice
Agreed, January transfers come at a premium and Leipzig don't let their players go cheap. A deal to be done but will need to make it worth it for them.
He's suppose to be a top top talent, seen some comparisons of his style of play to Kroos.
Love getting involved with some of the emerging talent before their price tags are out of control. We need to do more of that - I still am salty that we didn't get involved with Estevao and let Chelsea have a free run at him for a relatively small fee.
If there's any chance of Chelsea getting Gittens, we need to be all over that right now. Can certainly sell the opportunity in our team much better than Chelsea can with their logjam of wingers (Neto, Sancho, Estevao, Madueke, Felix, Mudryk).
Paying a bit of a premium but in January that is what it takes.
That's what we'll have to do to prize Sesko, but I suspect the Kroenke's won't be sanctioning an 80m deal this window.
We can recoup that money if we go far in the CL unless Sessko is cup tied?
We should have signed someone by mid - Jan ie now. We knew about the Saka injury before the window opened. In title races where everything is about fine margins can we really afford to wait till Jan 31st before getting someone in?
I hope we get someone before we play Wolves next weekend.
Marmoush is also supposedly on 300k+ in wages, which would be a 10x increase on his current salary. Pretty absurd wages if that is true and you can see why the thought of Nico Williams hits roadblocks with similar demands.
Chelsea chasing yet another winger?
samthegooner Is that really big wages if you believe he can be a starting-caliber forward for you? As we’ve seen this season it’s those goal-producers who make the difference, who win you leagues.
It's a high salary, but it doesn't make much sense to compare it to his past salary. It's not really relevant. Compare it to Havertz's, for example.
Looks like he’d be a good prospect for the left sided central midfield role

We’ve already got Tomi, don’t want another Severe Kneepain ffs
Well maybe he’s on his way

Sicario2 - Tier 1 Oh my god we've got dad jokes showing up on here as well now 
It is looking like the CF options are Gyokeres/Sesko/Osimhen possibly all available now if we stump up enough cash or in the summer if we wait.
The winger options are Williams/Semenyo/Gittens maybe a bit more difficult to obtain now but sounds more likely in the case of Gittens considering Chelsea made enquiry.
The creative midfielder options are Nypan/Lee Kang-In.
I would argue 1 from either of the first 2 lists should be signed in Jan and the rest can wait until the summer.
CPM if the rumors are correct he’d be our highest paid player weekly. I think that’s a bridge too far personally, especially with big contract renewals for Saliba, etc. coming up.
