I think I'll pop over to the Sunderland board to see the next phase of their psychological destruction unfolding.
Of all the players in Serie A currently Rafael Leão is the one that's guaranteed to become a superstar when he eventually moves to the Prem imo, he's an absolute physical monster who's play-style is perfectly suited to dominate the league and I'd have no problem with the PIF using some economic rascality to get him over to Newcastle by next season
Is it any worse than New York taking Lampard from Chelsea and loaning him to Man City a few years back, they're affiliated clubs and the suggestion was always that he was going to play for Man City over NY when the games allowed. Not saying it's right but just that we're hardly setting a precedent if it does go ahead.
Apparently Mane said "never say never" when asked if he could join us. Would take him in a flash, Liverpool haven't been the same since he left, and, like Trippier, he'd be a huge character. Looks like he's fallen out with Bayern for injuries and twatting Sane.
