Transfer Rumours Transfer Rumours thread

[Bumps]

It's a hoax that happens to be true. Just like climate change.

Still nothing concrete, looks really like a hoax
Got proper excited and prepared an apology for doubting jimmy

That bit cracked me up the most, a medical 10 months before the transfer

Think that horse bolted long ago.

Bit of a weird one this, have you actually bought him or just put a £3m deposit on him?
A lot can happen in a season, if he gets ****ed up bad do you still have to pay the other £48m, if so, can you insure him when he isn't your player yet?

Actually sort of agree
Cant get excited for a season, by then wecould have imploded - what happens if we finish tenth
Do think this may become the norm though with teams
Hope he doesnt get crocked
Will he be in WC

Clubs often buy players then loan them straight back for a season

But you haven't bought him, it's just a deal to pay his buyout clause next year

If he had a heart condition or a tiny pecker need to find out before spending the money on him... Even if it is 10 months out.

Just seen this about Keita - proper all rounder

Not only did Keita make more ball recoveries than any other outfield player in the Bundesliga, but only Dortmund's Ousmane Dembele completed more dribbles.

Clubs often arrange payments for players to be made over two or more years

 

[Salah's-left-foot]

Keita is a done deal. We effectively paid them £3m in a pre-contract transfer.

So in 10 months time they say £48m plus the "undisclosed bit" please and you say "but his knee is ****ed" who loses out?

Tbh, for £81 mil I hope it is a hoax

Very true, when they buy them. You have only promised to do so

I think we only miss out on the £3mill agree to sell to us fee.

The insurance company

 

[Klopp's Mannschaft]

An ITK on another site did say that there would be a CB announced on Tuesday morning so maybe the VVD rumour has legs afterall and isn't a hoax...

 

[Diego]

A promise is a promise, unless of course you accept that in 10 months time someone offers them £80m they can just give you your money back and sell to the highest bidder?

Tbh i feeling a bit like that
However if everyone is right about this guy and he solidifies our defence and we can get a settled team for next few years then great.
I am trying to have faith
Tbh think Chelsea only interested to stop us and City
As really dont see how he fits i there or who he replaces

 

[Diego]

The insurance company

That would cause some argument, who's player is he?

 

[Milk not bear jizz]

If the contract signed says we'll pay you £3mill if you don't sell to anyone else there is no "promise broken". This isn't primary school where we've promised to be Leipzig's best mate forever if they let us cut in line.

It's standard business abroad. Done deal!

 

[Milk not bear jizz]

Most rumours I've seen today about VVD is going to arse.

He's unlikely to be signed by us as he doesn't compete in the African Cup of Nations.
