Transfer: 2023 Summer Transfer Rumors and Discussion - Closed Window Edition

*sigh*

Sucks but it’s the position by far easiest to ignore in the short term.

 

[S E P H]

I assume everyone will keep the same energy they had when he “was going to Saudi” now that he isn’t? Should be equally praised no?


Hope everyone isn’t fooled that he’s morally against signing there. He isn’t… he just would rather squeez another year or 2 in europe.

Barca B #herewego!

Asensio going to PSG to rot on the bench lol. I don't blame him though, Paris or Birmingham?

 

[Live in the Now]

Soyuncu headed to Atletico for free apparently. They're interested in Lee Kang-in too

 

[maclean]

A lot of moral police here. 100% certain everyone would take the money and run. I would.

I dont know if its a fair comparison, I can barely afford food right now.

 

[maclean]

Why let Gundogan go though? Or did he personally want to move on? It's not like Kovacic is substantially younger.

I personally think Pep secretly wants Arteta to win the league (let's say as soon as he's gone) so he's letting him do it by just gradually giving him the team he assembled

 

[Chimaera]

Not everyone would take the money and run. This statement would imply we are already a ridiculously wealthy, top level athlete. If that was the case, the decision is different.

As a poor teacher with two young kids, hell yeah I would take the money. But I haven’t made generational wealth in my life to where my kids will never need to work.

I still don’t think anyone is shocked or would blame a player for taking the money. It’s literally Monopoly money. But we can be disappointed if they still could play, and now they’re taking the bag in some third rate joke of a league for King Bonesaw.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

He is dead to me.

 

[cgf]

Kai is being linked to Real.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

This changes hourly… I won’t even rule out the possibility that Laporta is doing this on purpose. And the intention isn’t to sign messi. Speculative

He is so going to join his buddy Pep... in Saudi?

At this point, who knows. I guess we'll know soon enough.

Outside of City, who else can afford him AND be attractive to Messi? He is leaving PSG, no way he comes to Madrid. Newcastle? LOL! United? Even more LOL! Chelsea? Nope.

lol I'm not worried

Kai is being linked to Real.

April 1st is still in full effect

Goal contribution every 85.875 minutes for the NT

No thanks.

The Madrid aggregators are going back full steam on the Mbappé train. Saying he is the priority for 2024. I would hope Flo would understand that this ship has sailed and that we should concentrate on other options.

Maybe we should get Kane now and re-evaluate the striker position in a few years when he declines.

 

[S E P H]

- Chelsea and Arsenal going after Montpellier striker, Elye Wahi.

- From a bad source, but one is saying that Arsenal would give money + Nuno Tavares to West Ham for Rice.

- Caicedo is Arsenal's main target if Bayern go after Rice.

- Maddison is still linked with us.

- Balogun leaning towards leaving the Arsenal (Leipzig and Monaco are the two main players).

- Arsenal going after Man United's star Alessio Russo.

- Edu wants to sign Marcos Leonardo from Santos

I dont know if its a fair comparison, I can barely afford food right now.

Do you need help?

Havertz playing as a 10 with actual capable wingers and an intelligent ST? He will put up 30 G/A

I like Kane tbh

But I like Osimhen too and he is 5 years younger

Why would we play him "as a 10"? We are about to sign Bellingham.

Carlo must have seen something we haven't; he probably sees him as a sub

That I have no idea about. But it would have to be a lot of money. I agree with PM - prolly off the bench.



I still do not get how an Enzo - Ugarte - Caicedo MF functions

i think they want to run the Argentina midfield from Qatar; but they’d be signing the wrong Brighton midfielder to do that. Caicedo and Ugarte would run around like maniacs and clear space for Enzo, which might be pretty fun to watch BUT their forwards might get a bit hungry for service and obviously they don’t have anything close to Messi. That’s a midfield that can beat people up though

 

[Chimaera]

Chelsea buy ALL The players.

France world cup winning squad vibes, with Enzo as Pogba. But their strikers aren't good enough for this midfield to work.

As A Barcelona fan, I'm all for Kai to Real.

 

[Mark Stones Spleen]

Yup. Want to see him in his natural role with a striker that's actually better than an Hf poster.

It sucks to lose Mason but nothing you can do. Kovacic is probably the bigger loss, especially if he's healthy, this summer of rest will be big for him. I really don't want to lose Kai.

So is Richarlison.
