Feck me, knowing our luck they will even get Schalke to pay a fee.

That depends on whether Origi himsefl would be willing to go to Schalke. They're in such a bad state right now that I doubt that any good player would want to go there.

 

[croadyman]

Mangiante's pretty good when it comes to Italian transfer rumours. I can't say much about him for non-Italian stories, though.

Out of all of that, I'd only pay attention to his mentions on Dybala, Pogba, and Caicedo (Caicedo has some interest from AC Milan).

Would be surprised if we wanted Dybala as got the feeling he wasn't that keen on the move last time

 

[croadyman]

Would be some coup for the scousers and knowing our luck he makes his debut against us

Is Origi a good player? He barely gets minutes for Liverpool

I find the links to not be that strong, too. My guess is that they're based on our past interest. Nowadays, with Bruno, I struggle to see how we can really fit in both him and Dybala unless we sack Ole and bring in a manager who doesn't necessarily rely on wingers for width (Allegri?).

He's not necessarily world class, but he's not a bad player, either. He can do way better than Schalke, definitely.

 

[Adnan]

This is according to a Florence based outlet. He's thus far refused to sign a new contract and his current one runs out in 2022. So Fiorentina are willing to sell for €25m.

He's aerially very dominant and has decent pace for a CB that is 6'4.

Does anyone knoe how good this guy is compared to the likes of Torres/Badashile

Whenever I've watched Fiorentina, he comes across as an aggressive defender who likes to play on the front foot. He's pretty good in the box and can win headers as Adnan mentioned, and he has some pace though isn't necessarily a speedster. He's also decent on the ball though not expansive. One of my worries with him is that his more aggressive style does leave him prone to ball-watching, kind of like Maguire, so I'm not sure of how well he can complement Maguire.

Final note: every time I've watched Fiorentina, he's never stuck out for them. Make of that what you will.

 

[Sanche7]

We should really be looking to sign a top CB or someone who has loads of potential. No more looking for undiscovered gems. We tried that with Rojo, Bailly, Lindelof etc. Should go for one of the best prospects or someone who is ready to make the jump to the highest level like Bruno. No point in going for another average player, we have plenty of them.

Does he still play RB as well? I remember when we were first linked, he was playing there a lot. You were a very big fan at the time! @mazhar13 if you know as well?

 

[charlenefan]

Interesting player is Bissouma, definitely one to keep an eye on

I haven't followed Fiorentina since so not sure. But from what I've read about him he seems to be playing plenty of games as a CB.

 

[el_loco_bielsa]

There’s been a reasonable amount of noise about kabak being lovren’s eventual replacement since he was sold in the summer but I’m quite wary of this potential signing.

Has looked distinctly underwhelming whenever I’ve watched him this season with multiple (dare I say it, lovren-esque) errors though that may just be because Schalke have been disastrous this season.

I do have considerable amount of faith in our scouting setup though so I wonder what data they have on him since they clearly think he suits the style statistically.

He plays at right back way less often nowadays. He's now an established CB.

I'd say that he's been Schalke's best player this season. He and the rest of the club are just going through a terrible mental slump at the moment. They play hard but then lose belief way too often during their matches. Kabak will look way better in a more settled club than Schalke.

Cheers both!

Deal done according to Ecuadorian sources

Moisés Caicedo will be Red Devil, the player's agents, Manchester United and IDV representatives, reached an agreement between the parties. Caicedo will have to sign in the following hours, before the new contracting rules of the Premier are applied

Who the feck would we want from Madrid that they would want to swap.

Smells like shite

Varane ?

 

[NYAS]

Varane ?

He’s been an absolute clown for the last year or so, no thanks.

 

[Lash]

Varane ?

What @NYAS said, but that would not surprise me from reports previously, that Ed was pretty obsessed with signing him.

Valverde would be the stand out

I doubt they would want to get rid of him, more likely to play with Pogba. There's plenty of players I'd have, but not sure Real would allow in the deal.

Vinicius maybe, or Mendy

Odegaard? Would be our Mata replacement.

 

[Sanche7]

Madrid wont sell Vinicius or mendy. I think our best bet would be to try and get Odegaard plus some cash. If it was last summer, would have happily taken Achraf Hakimi and some cash. Not sure about Varane, injury prone and i dont think he wants to leave madrid.

[NYAS]

He has the potential to be much more than a back-up at Atalanta. And Hateboer is still only 26.

Unless the latter is leaving, it’s a bit of a strange transfer.

To be fair, Hateboer did talk about looking for a new club last summer, so getting Maehle in now would allow Atalanta to let Hateboer leave.

In that case it would make a lot of sense.
