Sudden urge to check if any of Milan's players are in the final year of their contract ...best I can do is Luka Jovic
€8m for Parrott to AZ according to Romano and Gold. Not great, not terrible. Doesn’t sound like there’s a sell on clause though which is disappointing, got 17 in 32 last season and he’s joining a better side in AZ after that Excelsior loan so in theory should have a lot more scoring opportunities and exposure. Type of deal for AZ where they could cash in around £20m within a year or two if he does well.
Ben Jacobs has been rather chatty today, saying... - We are going to test the waters for Pedro Neto (apparently forgetting he's a Jorge Mendes client, then...) - We have made enquiries about Eberechi Eze (presumably trying not to laugh about the gentlemen's agreement they have...) - We are putting together an offer for Desire Doue - Dortmund are set to make a move for Reguilon TBH I'm starting to think that Neto is chaff, as Lange plays things close to his chest so having our interest in Neto public knowledge feels like a smokescreen for something else - or it might be Paratici's job for the summer
So on board with Neto it's crazy. I've decided to **** off the concerns over his injuries, if we get 20-25 starts out of him then that'd be better than what we currently have to choose from. Neto and Son on the flanks rivals any wing pairing in the Premier League. If the club wanted to strut its stuff and really show ambition (which we should) then him and Eze as signings puts us well into some big conversations. A new striker doesn't even become that much of a must either then as goals should flow from multiple areas and Richarlison himself would likely net his best scoring season. Vicario Porro, Romero, van de Ven, Udogie Eze, *choose DM*, Maddison Neto, Richarlison, Son Ooooft.
Palace have made a bid for Marcus Edwards, reportedly in the region of €15m - though Sporting want somewhere between €20-25 bracket Given we have a 35% sell-on clause, here are the likely scenarios 1.) We get something between £5-7m in our pocket without doing anything 2.) We make an offer in the range of Palace's bid, as for Sporting it's straight cash 3.) We suggest that we waive the sell-on fee if it happens to grease the wheels on what we might pay for Eze 4.) The Portuguese sources got their sums wrong and it's actually a 25% sell-on clause...
Rennes have rejected a €35m package for Doue from Bayern. They’re rumoured to be preparing a second bid so if we’re serious with our interest, we’ll need to act soon.
If we somehow get Dortmund to sign Emerson and Reguilon in the same window, that might be reason for me to remind people that the term "sacrificial trash" exists for a reason
Alasdair Gold suggesting he's getting loaned for the coming season Hardly new news, as there's been suggestions for a while that would happen, but news all the same
Since 2001, Spanish teams (national and club) have played in 22 major finals and won every single one So it’s about time they lost
Parrott’s move confirmed. Best of luck to him. Ally Gold’s also said we did insert a sell on clause of 20%, happy with that now. Said just yesterday it was disappointing we seemingly didn’t have one.
