They paid about £35m for him themselves, it’ll take too much to prise him. Maybe in a year or two when he has fewer years on his contract.

Yeah, I know. I think it's because of the way the deal was struck. He came here in January. Not sure if we had the deal signed in the summer window and he stayed in Italy on loan or it was a straight transfer in Jan - just that the papers were signed some when in Sept. I guess we didn't want to get him here and get him loaned out right away. Whereas Pelistri had a half a season here before he moved out. That's the only logical reason I can find behind it.
That's 12 months old news, really
Only reiterating what Zorc said yesterday but thanks for being a div
you're very welcome
Ehh....at best, he's a mixed bag. He's one of the more reliable journalists out of Sportitalia, but is he reliable enough? I can't say for sure.
Typically, if a journalist puts their name on a story, then they're receiving some sort of info from someone connected to football. This also includes typically unreliable or worse journalists like Nicolo Schira. Then again, they also receive a bunch of speculative info from their sources. The good ones filter out the rubbish in one way or another.
Vazquez at right back, eh? Given their existing defensive problems, bringing in a defensively weak right back shouldn't really be up there for Bayern (unless they're hoping to get him for a low cost).
Kehl was saying similar things about Sancho last season...
I don't know if that's necessarily a good idea as it'll allow both Calhanoglu's and Donnarumma's entourages to talk to other clubs in the meantime.
Cavani's renewal is likely to be a 1+1, which is great news.
From The Athletic, they said the below: (couldn't find a relevant Tweet).
The info from your tweet says BVB are willing to sell for less than €100m while The Athletic say BVB still want £110m, a bit of contradicting reporting in terms of the fee BVB would demand.
That part seems to refer to what was required last summer. The German media have been reporting for a while that Sancho's for sale, which implies that they might let him go for a slightly smaller fee. Berger's Tweet also refers to what the conditions could be this summer.
- (Likely) Deadline for the gentleman's agreement: the start of Dortmund's training camp (possibly end of July)
- Teams interested: Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester United
- Dortmund have yet to receive an offer
- Sancho's successors: both Memphis Depay (wages) and Donyell Malen (transfer fee) have been ruled out

£74m - £78m. That's reasonable (not cheap, but a fair price) - I hope we get him ahead of Liverpool.
I got excited for a moment there and realised that's an old tweet! 
Who's the EPL player that they're looking at to replace Sancho?
Leah didn't reveal the winger in the comments, unfortunately. She did, however, rule out two options:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't Dortmund linked to Wilfried Zaha? Besides Zaha, other wingers that I wouldn't be surprised for them to go after are Hudson-Odoi and Saka.
Not exactly a great source though
CaughtOffside and StrettyNews as websites, no. Leah's scoops, however, have been corroborated and picked up by other, more reliable journalists (like Patrick Berger and Fabrizio Romano).
Have they? Like what?
Unless something has changed dramatically with Caught Offside recently I wouldn't lend any credibility to anybody associated with them .
Nothing this Leah character has done sofar to prove otherwise This Source should be on banned List .
This shouldn't be a problem this
summer then
It will
Arrrgh! Heart jumped for a second. Think it will happen this year though, especially as it looks like Cavani is staying.
Thats why im asking. She literally created her account during ESL week and knowing Dortmund transfer news smells like bullshit.
Easy life for Raiola
Come on you guys, did you really, even for a minute, think United would ever start working on a transfer before the window opens?
This looks like Donnarumma is signing a new contract every now and then to get another deal/million € for his family members. I'm wondering how many his mom will get for the next signing
Hes a good keeper especially for his age but hes been nothing but a headache for Milan. Is already the highest paid youngster in Italy and now leaves for nothing. The true cost of dealing with Raiola players
Good shout, could be CHO. Unlikely to be Saka imo, they won't be able to afford him. Zaha is another good shout, I too remember them being linked.
