Due a new contract by any chance?
fecking joke of a club. Spent more than double that on Pulisic, when you have your own young talent just itching for a chance. Homegrown nonetheless.
I hope young players just stop signing for them. It’s a total waste of time.
34 mil buy out clause sounds to good to be true.
It’s not a waste of time if they get out early. Their youth teams do well. Players like Hudson Odoi just need to leave when they are bordering the first team.
Godin looking unlikely to renew contract and will leave in the summer
He's an absolute lunatic with his tackling. It works for him in Italy, but there's a chance he'd pick up a lot of cards in games with faster pace. Defensively and in the air he's a monster. Definitely worth a punt at that price.Manolas at 34m would be a steal. He's a bit of a bastard too, would add some steel to the defence.

Isn't Manolas bit short? Any regular Serie A viewers?
Smalling ,Lindeloff ,Manolas and a new CB doesn't sound too bad.
I think we will buy one senior CB ( KK or Manolas) and one young one (that Serbian or Brazilian)
Sancho is having an effect on a lot of club's thinking.The Callum Hudson-Odoi transfer fees is nonsense, right?
18 year old. hasn't been capped. Hasn't gone on loan. A few scattered appearances for Chelsea...
And Bayern want to pay 30m + for him? That has to be a fecking joke.
Cheers, makes too much sense.He isn't short, he is probably around the same height as Rojo. He is a monster in the air and has good recovery pace. I cant see United signing him though. It makes too much sense for us.
Sancho was a lot cheaper. Even if he was a dud, Dortmund would probably get a decent amount of their money back by selling him back to some English club.Sancho is having an effect on a lot of club's thinking.
What's £30m if they can sell him back in 3 years for £70m?
We have three very rash CB's already, adding another doesn't seem a wise move to me.
I want Toby. Proven, cheap, great player and will add experience to Lindelof hopefully.
Depends, are Leipzig more of a Dortmund or Wolfsburg in their attitude towards dealing with Bayern?Bayern sign their next striker.
You mean as in „There is a price“ (Wolfsburg) or „We are not selling“ (Dortmund)?Depends, are Leipzig more of a Dortmund or Wolfsburg in their attitude towards dealing with Bayern?

From their homegrown players below, the ones in red are linked to other clubs this window as well so it seems weird.
Barkley, Ross*
Cahill, Gary James*
Christensen, Andreas Bodtker*
Drinkwater, Daniel Noel*
Fabregas Soler, Francesc*
Green, Robert Paul*
Loftus Cheek, Ruben*
Moses, Victor*
Piazon, Lucas Domingues*
They won’t get a buyback clause out of Bayern, who are the bigger club.He has 18 months on his contract and won't resign. They can either sell him now for a decent fee or let him leave in the following transfer windows for less or for free at the end of his contract.
They'll will want Bayern to pay a high price for him or sell him to Leipzig for less but with an agreed buy back price or such like I would imagine.
That's what he said mateThey won’t get a buyback clause out of Bayern, who are the bigger club.
I will be pissed off if he leaves for any other epl team other than us. The guy is the perfect foil for Pogba... and could be a decent replacement for Matic who breaks up play and moves the ball forward quickly....
Does anyone actually think we will get a top CB this month? I'd be amazed.
Won't argue with anyone that we badly need one, but we have an interim manager and a DoF role to fill, and its very hard to get top quality players in Jan.
Just can't see it.
