clearly konate forgets his injury record and former life as a young player. bajcetic should go through the back of him day 1 in preseason. konate is at the peak of his career. he's not getting a bigger club as his injury record already looks dodgy. I was concerned day 1 when I heard he had hip surgery before joining us but in the 2 seasons since we've seen great games separated by a lot of injuries. maybe he should focus in that and not get ahead of himself mouthing about player purchases
Wonder if Real are regretting Bellingham now that Mbappe is up for sale. Can they afford both in one window?
of course they can. The maths on it are not even cheslea mad. Bellingham 88.5mil and 250k a week. Say you paid 200mil for mbappe with one year left on contract AND paid him 2million a week (not quite double saudi rate for ronaldo) thats not even as mad as what Chelsea have done in the last 12 months. Sure its just 2 players but its not madly out of line when you see their negative net spend for the last two years. However it is entirely moot as mbappe says its psg smearing his name and he is going nowhere so it'll be 3 million a week in 12 months time. I don't know how he will survie the 12 months but i suppose 1mil a week gets baked beans or dog food to eat.
Thats what I am reading mate, i don't know what he is actually getting but its being reported he is on 250k. Seems rather low to me but i can only deal in whats in the public domain. It just goes to show how LFC knew they were not the players choice and made up a reason why they were not buying him. Real have pulled dortmund's pants down by the look of things.
So the Real to Bellingham deal is complete, presentation tomorrow at 12. Arsenal apparently interested in Havertz, Chelsea want £70m.
Do Arsenal want to become the new Chelsea? They might find next season a whole lot more difficult than this season
I think a lot of teams will set up differently against them than the season just gone. Yeah, they'll find it harder.
We all knew it was happening, but Brighton have confirmed the signing of Milner on a free. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2023/jun/14/james-milner-liverpool-brighton-transfer-roundup
