JAJAJAJAJA My message got cut off. I simply wanted to say that Bayer has no need to sell, that they, in theory, would prefer to sell Wirtz as they did with Havertz (for almost 80-90 million). Surely they are willing to get rid of Diaby, but they are not going to give it away and surely the agreement will be complicated and will take a long time.

Diaby usually plays in left or right winger in Bayer, And Bayer plays with 4-2-3-1. OK. Bayer has in their squad a lot of players to play in the MP line, and normally all can play in the 3 differents positions. Adli, Diaby, Bellarabi and Wirtz are the players more importants, but they have Paulinho too, and they got this summer Hlozek (Amazing player). I believe they can sell Diaby without problem, but

It was because the only reason Depay wanted to join Barcelona was because Koeman was the Coach. And in this moment, the future of Koeman was not clear to continue much more time in Barcelona. Barcelona accepted these conditions because Depay had much better offers financially

It is because in Spain, normally, press inform about the salary in net values, not in gross. So sometimes the 'conversion' is not correct. When Depay was in agreement with Barcelona, he signed to earn 14M euros per year, but later, when he joined to the club, he was to cut the salary to 10M euros per year because the financial situation of Barcelona. So, in gross, he earns more or less 200.000 euros per week. More or less 175.000 pounds per week.

I liked Depay a lot at PSV, he failed in Manchester, but then he was the star of Lyon and at Barcelona he played very well (In the first round, he was the only thing that stood out). In addition, he is one of the most important players in the Netherlands. I remember in his time at PSV, that he always talked too much about how good he was, that he was going to be the best in the world. It seemed somewhat self-centered. Mourinho was the manager who sold him to Lyon, and a few months ago he said that he simply joined a top team without being ready for it. That he didn't understand that in a big club there was competition, and that he had childish attitudes when he wasn't playing. He also said that, despite this, he was a great professional and that he was not a party player (which people thought and said he was). After being a star and captain in Lyon, and a star in the Netherlands (and he is beginning to be one of the captains of the national team when Van Dijk is not playing), I don't see him going to a team like ours to fight for a position, if not to be a starter. And although he moves better down the left wing (like Saint-Maximin), I think an attack made up of Depay, Wilson and Saint Maximin would be very good. In addition, in recent times he has played a lot as a center forward, so we would also have Wilson's replacement and we would definitely forget about Ekitike.

His departure seems fine to me. I think that Haaland is going to play and that normally he does it very well, but what's more, if Álvarez stays and doesn't go out on loan, he's a striker completely in the style that Guardiola likes.

If is to a lower ranked team in England I bet is Arsenal.

I couldn't like Ziyech less. I will not question his soccer skills (although I will question his regularity), but he is a player who has had serious problems (and sometimes nonsense) in all the teams he has been in and with all technicians. He refused to play for Feyenoord early in his career because they didn't want to give him the number 10 shirt (occupied by another player). Twente took away his captain's band due to his lack of discipline. He asked to be transferred from Twente to another team when the coach told him that he had to defend too, not just attack. In a press conference he said about his teammates that "They were bad and inexperienced and they didn't have the same level. I get bored just being able to pass the ball to two or three." When the Netherlands called him up, on the first day of concentration he argued and insulted the coach Van Basten (which is why the Netherlands did not call him again and declared himself eligible for Morocco). In his penultimate year at Ajax, he argued with the board, he was suspended from employment and salary and the club withdrew his number '10' shirt because they considered him unworthy to wear that number. Today, he is away from the Moroccan team and for many months he has not been with the team and he will not do so with this coach. A gem.

Is very important that in this years.. In France, journalist informed Atletico was a agreement with Kamara (Marseille), but when the Atletico DoF was to see Kamara to his house to sign the contract, the player was 'in bad condition' (in terms of clothes) and with a lot of friends in his house that was chill and smoking.... And Atletico decided to break the agreement because this behaviour.

Translate: Raphina rejected Newcastle offer and he is ready to join Barça.

It seems to me that the signing of Rapinha is going to go wrong for Chelsea. Apparently, there are agreements between Chelsea and Leeds, but the player wants to play in Barcelona. His agent (Deco) has been in the Barcelona offices for two days trying to find the formula for Rapinha to end up in Barcelona and not in Chelsea. What sense does it make for Chelsea to sign a player who doesn't want to go there and who, surely, in one or two years will be a problem because he will want to leave?

In a couple of years we will have all three.

He was in the bench in match against Brentford this year. His stats this year

We need to get the Real Sociedad CB Robin Le Normand, so we can form a couple of CB called Botman y Robin.

Some Italian papers are saying we want Romagnoli (Milan) that is for free this summer. They say the player prefers to join Lazio (he is Lazio fan, but he is Roma Academy player) but Newcastle offer 4M per year and Lazio just 2.8M. Trippier-Romagnoli-Botman-Targett is a very good defence.

Romano and Leocadio are reliable sources... I will bet for the transfer is almost done.

I like Gouiri so much. I wish we can sign him. About Broja, I dont see him much, but looks like Chelsea want to stay as a sub because the are going to sell Lukaku.

One or two CB (Senesi, Demiral, Tarkowski, Botman...). One LB with future (or try to give a choice to Lewis). One MC football creator (Paqueta or similar) One Winger (Diaby, Rapinha or similar) One Striker (Looks like Ekitike). Sell Ritchie, Krafth or Manquillo, Clark, Lascelles, Almiron (or Murphy), Hendrick and Gayle

DhGate...

The key is the money earns Dortmund is low, but not the money spend Man City. Near to 70 Millions € to Dortmund, but 30 Millions for Haaland father and 50 million for his agency. It is a deal similar to the one Haaland got when he went from Salzburg to Dortmund. So it was 22 million for Salzburg, 15 for Mino Raiola and 15 for Haaland's father. I do not understand how a transfer can be made with such high amounts for the father and the agent, unless they have a percentage of the player and it is not 100% of the clubs.

I also believe that it is necessary to have a specific player in the stopper position. We'll see if Howe wants Bruno to be the '5', or he prefers to make him play more advanced because we have also seen that he has the ability to score goals from the second line. But at least it is necessary to have someone on the staff who is specific to that demarcation. Neither Shelvey nor Sean are that type of player.

Dembele was on loan in Atletico in 2020-2021, not in 2021-2022.
