Won't read too much into what Fonte says...you can never say never in life (especially football life), but I am not taking it as him leaving this season or even next. My guess is that he will end up back in Portugal...though he did mention recently that his child/children (?) are English. I have no doubt he will still be young enough to play when his career finishes with us.
I think it will be a season or two.
 
Without wishing to dampen spirits, I can't see how Fonte would have any sort of knowledge on how close we are on transfers or who the individuals concerned are.

He's almost certainly talking more generally (Koeman has probably told the squad that there will be a couple of quality additions to come). It would be very lax of the squad to have players aware of any wish list or negotiations.
 
I'm still hoping we meet the buyout clause for krychowiak. He's class. I think Sevilla will sell if a club meets it.
Also, we could learn a thing or two from how they've handled his contract. Stick a high buy-out clause, don't negotiate with anyone unless it's met. Job done.
 
Ogbonna to West Ham confirmed.

A gamble, but I reckon it will pay off. He was amazing a couple of seasons ago. Awful at juve, but if they can get him playing he is a class, class act.

And I'm sure that is virtually the same interview we saw reported a week or so back...so may have included Cuco in that.

Koeman said in an interview that upon his arrival at the club he kept Kelvin and Jose in the loop on transfers to keep them, and the dressing room, calm.

He also said something about liking to be close to his captain, I think.

Anyone else remember these things?!

Yeah. Said that he kept KD and Fonte in the loop about incoming and out going players.

Short answer? Yep I do.
