Kessie to Milan is all but done. The player will undergo his medical with Milan between Tuesday and Wednesday. [Mediaset]

We are NOT signing Radja.

[Jack Sparrow]

I'd hope not. There are some typical Roma players who I can't stand. Just like there are some typical Inter players who I can't stand. Radja is one of them.

[Forza Milan!]

Muntari fell in that category from my perspective (particularly given how Mou used him), and ... look where he ended up for a wile ...

[Forza Milan!]

Love the fact that we keep building up our scouting team. Gone are the days of relying on Raiola and Preziosi.

[Jack Sparrow]

Yes I heard. We landed some bloke from Juventus who's really good. Anyone else think, we're doing this better than Inter in the sense our new owners seem to have rolled off and completely let Fassone and Mirabelli run things. No owners sticking their head in and deciding how to run things.

EDIT: Link

Also, Everton are in with 18 MM Euros for Niang. I'd take it. That's good money. Also rumours we are in negotiation to sell Kucka, Paletta, Zapata and possibly Sosa to Turkish clubs (Antalyaspor is the name widely reported). That reminds me I need to get some spring cleaning done too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Word is Morata has agreed a 60M deal. Looks like he's a goer. Exceptional signing.

Niang wants to come back to us. I say f*ck him.

That's a monster move. Is he worth that much? I say with 60 million we can sign someone better.

I think we've had this argument before. The guy has always had to make do with the bench while guys like Benzema, Ronaldo, Tevez and Dybala got selected ahead of him. But when selected (bench or starting) his record is excellent.

This season la liga: 30 appearances, 15 goals, 4 assists.

UCL: 8, 3

Previous: 34 for Juve, 7 goals 7 assists

Bear in mind he's not an out and out striker but a forward. From the fringes of the first team the above record is pretty exceptional. I don't think with 60M you can do much better these days. Bayern offered the same to Arsenal for Sanchez:

This season EPL: 38, 24, 10

UCL: 8, 3, 3

last: EPL: 30, 13, 4

UCL, 7, 3 5

previous EPL, 35, 16, 8

And he's been Arsenal's absolute first choice in all that time and IS a striker. Give Morata the right environment and make him a first choice and I reckon he's a belting signing.

[amancik]

But given the choice, would you guys choose Morata over Aubameyang?

[han2503]

We are NOT signing Radja.

Probably not, but we did apparently speak to his agent to get a feeler on him. Even if we're not signing him, this is an indication of what our spending power could potentially be this summer

Also, apparently the Chinese government is about to lift the red tape on foreign investment which could open up the proverbial financial floodgates for us as the initial investors that had to back out will come back into the fold

I'd hope not. There are some typical Roma players who I can't stand. Just like there are some typical Inter players who I can't stand. Radja is one of them.

Radjo would be a dream signing for me, he's a players that can do it all and is excellent at both phases of the game

Word is Morata has agreed a 60M deal. Looks like he's a goer. Exceptional signing.

It's only Gazzetta that are reporting it and we still have to deal with Real, who aren't exactly in need of money. Last I read we are still talking to the German intermediary about Auba, I think they're keeping their options open because they're not sure which one will be more doable and when the opportunity comes up they'll jump at it

Niang wants to come back to us. I say f*ck him.

We cannot get rid of this leach! Everton are supposedly interested, we need to make sure to offload him at first opportunity and make it clear to him that he's not part of the plans

That's a monster move. Is he worth that much? I say with 60 million we can sign someone better.

Who? All the top striker are going for huge amounts. Mbappe is easily worth over a 10mm and he's only had one good season, things are just insane atm. 60m is a relatively good price imo, plus there's the added bonus of upsetting the Juve fans who are not happy about the Morata news

[han2503]

But given the choice, would you guys choose Morata over Aubameyang?

Auba is older and his main attribute aside from finishing is his pace, the prices being quated are higher for him and he's demanding over 12m in wages. I just don't think he's a smart move at this point. Morata makes more sense, plus he's a more complete forward than Auba imo

[Danny]

Monaco actually rejected £110M for Mbappe from Real.
