All Summer Transfer talk here

Let's hope it's a good one

Some players are just one season wonders. Remember Piatek? I have no hopes for Jovic. He can be the sub this year, but next season with Giroud going 38 we need a couple of striker signings. My eyes are on Jonathan David.

I think the plan was we go for Taremi this summer in view of Giroud's departure next year. So his replacement would overlap him.

With that not going through and all the signings we made this summer, I really do think that we can dedicate a big chunk of the budget to a top striker next summer.

Atm, we have 3 positions still left to improve. ST, RB and DM. So if we have around 60-70m next summer, I think we can allocate 40m to the striker position

I read, but Lille was never gonna accept.

Lille should be kissing our @sses every day considering how we bailed them out of the Leao problems

We did?

We did?

Yep. Furlani got the deal over the line by stepping in and sorting the Sporting issue out.

Why do you think Leao is at just 5.5m per year?

Regarding this, it emerged from our latest financial statements that we actually paid 20m to Lille to solve the matter. So Leao's actual cost is 50m, considering we also spent 30m to sign him.
