Sunderland has reached an agreement with Nice regarding the fee for Marcin Bułka: it’s above 15 million euros. The clubs are still finalizing details. It’s not fully sealed yet, but close. Saudi Arabia is also tempting him. The decision will be up to Bułka:
That tweet does say Bulka has to decide between us and Saudi so it’s by no means swayed back to us. It’s just confirmation it’s not over and that, it seems, Romano at least is confident that he’ll make the right choice
No the tweet labelled out is Sunderland have agreed a fee etc, the small line is it’s not done yet but close. neom is mentioned at the bottom as a passing comment
no it’s not a passing comment. It says the decision is Bulka’s the way I see it is both clubs have agreed a fee and now Bulka has to choose the “it’s close” is us agreeing the finer details of the fee with Nice, not the deal is close
Passing comment I mean is not the focus of the tweet the focus of the tweet is we’ve agreed a deal not finalised but close. And now fab is winking
Tbf it's the only post that say sunderland have agreed a fee and is finalising details but yeah decision will be bulka's
fabrizio broke the news about us when he puts winks and smiles on stuff after he's broke a clubs is in talks its usually to hint that it's moving forward
absolutely. He first said we’re in negotiations on a fee and now he’s acknowledging that the fee is pretty much agreed. this does not mean that the Saudi threat is averted. Indeed the tweet even says the player still needs to decide.
yep because I don’t think this latest update from fab means anything other than we’ve agreed a fee. We still need him to come out with news that Bulka has chosen us
Just going to reiterate it says not done but close, he’s winking now. We might’ve upped the offer and he’s agreed
If all this Bulka chat is true, that there are two offers on the table, if he chooses us, a newly promoted side over Saudi money that's a huge win for European football and might signal a turn, nothing lasts forever just ask the Chinese Super League.
That’s really not how football works. He is grossly underpaid and has an offer from Saudi. There’s no way on earth he’d even contemplate 20k at this stage.
