Dele alli to Besiktas ?!? That is a weird one. He can’t be that bad surely? He’s barely been given a chance at Everton
Yeah confirmed, £10m. Would’ve been a good addition for us and in our price range. Doubt from his point of view he would’ve wanted to come
His psg wages were apparently close to 80k a week. So I don’t think the fee price range for the fee was the issue
Yeah, from the replies it has got a lot of fans excited as if they believe he might actually know something. Although this is twitter so it doesn't take much.
It is certainly weird for us to even be being talked about for a (Portuguese) player with links to Newcastle and Wolves . You’d think we wouldn’t even be in the discussion. And we might not be.
As you said yesterday Wolves have almost a monopoly on Portuguese players around the level we can attract. If they aren’t interested in someone then chances are he’s not very good. Especially as striker is a position they need as far as I’m aware. I highly doubt any Portuguese player, unless incredibly poorly advised, would pick us over Wolves, so if he does come here it would indicate Wolves weren’t interested.
All fair points. Unless it is a budget issue? Which would be tricky for them since they haven’t got a striker in Mendes client. If Wolves have cooled their interest I’d be intrigued as to why. Him not being very good is not the only possible answer. Especially as there were links with Newcastle and PSG. Financial might be the issue - but that would make it even less likely for us Or perhaps the good old sell on clause / percentages that some clubs might not be as receptive to?
