8-9 more signings, i imagine least 10+ players will be sold
Superb thatI’ll write a full summary because messages are spread out:
- Firstly said we will make 8/9 more signings.
- he says he’s never seen anyone like KLD at his age. Says he’s so intelligent, even with all his money ‘sitting on billions’ he uses the money the premier league gives him to enhance the club and transfers.
- says KLD knows he needs league experience but hints at them still being younger players who can ‘go for even more money next year’
- Says petrovic is close to being finalised. He says it’s not a case of the player now it’s between Chelsea and Sunderland to agree the fee. Says the player is waiting for the deal to be closed. Believed the narrative was pushed that the deal was not advanced because we wanted to work on it and get it closed quietly. Says he isn’t surprised by this as he broke the news early.
- Says KLDs phone call with Talbi went really well. Player is happy with the project and what is happening here whilst also understanding he will not be the only player coming in his position.
- Mentions a number 10 and a LW as two positions were looking at.
- Says Ghisolfi is important and has been given the key.
This all sounds very very healthy.
From what he said, if Petrovic ends up going elsewhere it's partly his fault!- Says petrovic is close to being finalised. He says it’s not a case of the player now it’s between Chelsea and Sunderland to agree the fee. Says the player is waiting for the deal to be closed. Believed the narrative was pushed that the deal was not advanced because we wanted to work on it and get it closed quietly. Says he isn’t surprised by this as he broke the news early.
I think it was Chelsea side alsoFrom what he said, if Petrovic ends up going elsewhere it's partly his fault!
Broke it far earlier than the club would have wanted was the implication.
I think it was Chelsea side also
I guess if he is privy to as much as he makes out then he'd be able to piece it together from conversations he's having with people.I believe Sacha about Petrovic but no idea how he'd know how many more signings we want
It’s the Optimus time for a move.He is running out of time for a good contact he is PRIMED for a move.
Also sounded like Talbi knows he will have competition tooI guess if he is privy to as much as he makes out then he'd be able to piece it together from conversations he's having with people.
For example he said he has a source in Talbi's camp (his agent no doubt) and mentioned that KLD had spoken directly to Talbi to sell the club to him, you'd assume the plans for how many we're looking to bring in and what sort of calibre we're targeting would form part of that.

Yeah definitelyI guess if he is privy to as much as he makes out then he'd be able to piece it together from conversations he's having with people.

Am I right in thinking that he said a lot of this stuff is embargoed in the UK? If so, I didn't know that - I wonder if he means officially (through the courts or whatever the due process would be) or whether it's just the way the game works over here, unwritten rule/gentlemens' agreement etc.I think it was Chelsea side also
Convinced myself the other winger will be a top loan, so he can have a development season, based on nout this like just my hungover boredom, welcome to Sunderland Oscar BobbAlso sounded like Talbi knows he will have competition too
He said he did but he can't 'reveal' their names yet.Superb that
wonder if he knows who the players with pl experience are

I can see what but Sacha is very very very reliableI'll feel better when a second source is as confident - maybe an update from the Guardian or the Mirror as they were ones who were positive about it earlier
I still wouldn't count your chickens - still nothing to stop another club (say Bournemouth) coming in and meeting Chelsea's demands and being equally as appealing to Petrovic.Sounds like Petrovic is a matter of time then
glad to hear we are targeting 8-9 more incomings. It was needed and I’m glad the club aren’t ****ing around
I can see what but Sacha is very very very reliable
