We've been discussing this in the old Serie A thread. Let's move convo here


Gabbia to Villareal almost done. Loan without option


On the surface this doesn't make any sense. We should be selling him outright. But apparently Villareal needed a defender and this is probably being done to sweeten the Chukwueze deal.


Hopefully Gabbia has a good season and we can sell him off for around 10m next summer.

Yeah, Musah seems done as well. 20m + 2m add-ons.

Wow, for once we are doing a real mercato, covering all the weak areas we had. Impressive. And look at how much money we've spent:

Sportiello 0
Romero 0
RLC 16m + 4m add-ons
Pulisic 20m
Reijnders 19m + 4/5m add-ons
Okafor 14m
Chukwueze 20m + 8m add-ons
Musah (?) 20m + 2m add-ons

110m spent, potentially 130m. Truly impressive. It's true that Tonali's move financed most of the operation, but how many times have we seen big players sold on this side only for those money to never be re-invested again?
