I still don't understand why these agents agree to these dumb release clauses that are pointlessly astronomical.
 
i guess these expensive type of release clauses as so high they’re more or the less the same as having no release clause at all, which is true for most players outside of Spain.

That makes some sense but as an agent, I’d be sweating signing up my client to that kind of poison pill clause at a club that is begging players to take pay cuts right now.
 


What utter shite.

Firstly lets not forget that we have a squad of well over 30players. I think all but the most loyal fan to the players could name up to ten players in thsi squad there is a good argument to sell even if they wouldnt want to, some are usually in our first eleven. The fact we have failed to move on anybody but James this summer is a huge failure in my eyes, even 4/5 would have bought a lot of good midfielders.

Were the only possible attainable central midfielders Barella or Rice then? As they are the only two that were actually costly. Whether the right players, good enough etc etc Kamara in France would have been about £10, Caqueret £20m, there were Camavinga links, Locatelli, Zakaria, Tchounemi, Gravenburch, Tielmans, Tonali, sure there are many others
 
Despite not saying no to that, he did stress that Chelsea aren't actively working on Haaland at this time.

Tuchel's quotes:


When he was asked about bringing Haaland in next summer or whether Lukaku means no Haaland:


The Tuchel quote about not being serious for now:

TBH, I can't think of a team that wouldn't mind having Haaland as a striker. That fact still doesn't mean that every manager/team is after him.
Nice conclusion from these journos

Newcastle are interested in Overmars, but we don't know whether Overmars himself is open to the change.
 

Barça works on the renovations. Ousmane Dembélé can become a big mess, the parties still do not approach. At the moment there is no appointment to talk about Sergi Roberto's new contract: it seems that the club and the representatives will resume everything in November.

Translated Tweet:
 

Ronald Araújo's renewal is NOT imminent. The defender ends his contract in June 2023 and Barça wants to absolutely keep him but still have to negotiate.
 
Hirving Lozano talks about the rumours that link him to Newcastle United.

Lozano's quotes:
I’m focused on here (Napoli) first and foremost. The rumours will come, they always come, they are always seen and not heard. But the truth is that no, I am very calm. If the time comes, the time will come, but right now, I’m here with Napoli; I’m focused here, and I’m going to do my best, as always.
 

Pedri, Ansu and…Ousmane Dembélé. The news is that in the next few days Barcelona will insist to renew the Frenchman who ends his contract in June. The club wants to fix the situation and will try its best to retain him. Let's see what the representative of the winger thinks...


Ansu Fati will earn almost €50 million gross over the next five years.

Solskjær on following Andreas's loan spell:
Yeah, we follow Andreas, of course we do. He’s a very good player, fantastic person. And I’m so happy for him that he’s enjoying it over there. Because for us, it was the point: ‘Andreas, now you go and show how good you are’. I couldn’t give him enough playing time and we know the quality in him. When he has the trust and belief, he’s top quality, so I’m happy for him.

On whether Andreas can return to United:
You know, at a certain stage of a player’s career, it’s important that you play enough at a high level. Last year, Andreas went on loan, he didn’t play enough. The season before, he played a lot for us, but then we signed Bruno. And I’m happy for him now and I’ll see him soon.

On whether he'll return to Old Trafford:
Of course. When he keeps on playing like he can do, at his best level, he’s a top player.

Eric ten Hag on the rumours linking both Marc Overmars and him to Newcastle:
The positional of technical director is one for the long term. Marc set things in motion a few years ago. He did this from a certain vision, he introduced structure and managed. It’s started to grow and I don’t think the process is over yet.

Marc hasn’t informed me [about the Newcastle interest]. I don’t think he’s withholding anything from me either. I’m not working on [going to Newcastle] and now is definitely not the time.
 
22-year-old Wolfsburg centre back Sebastiaan Bornauw eventually wants to move to the Premier League.

Bornauw on wanting to move to England:
I can taste the Champions League here at a German top club; this was the best choice. I am very happy here.

I am not thinking too much ahead yet, but one day I would like to play in the Premier League. That has been a dream since I was little. Norwich and Crystal Palace were interested, as was Lazio, but Wolfsburg was the best choice at the time. The Bundesliga is not inferior to the Premier League, but one day, I want to make the step to England.

The article states that multiple clubs are interested in him, but only Manchester United were name-dropped. They go against claims in France that Zidane isn't interested in going to England. Apparently, Zidane is enjoying his time outside of football and is in no rush to return to management.

Kiko Casilla on not wanting to fulfill his Leeds contract:
It will be difficult for me to fulfil the year I have left. When I left there it was because of that, because my time there is over. I think I will not have problems with the club because they behaved very well with me, because I asked to leave and they never put any impediment on me, they gave me all the facilities to leave. When you have a bad time there, and I have been through it a lot, in the end what you want is to leave, and I have been able to leave.

Sevilla president José Castro is refuting claims that his club only rejected multiple offers for Koundé in order to hide their financial worries.
To say that the club is broke is ridiculous. Last season we had a surplus, after a season without season tickets, without ticket sales… The deficit would have been resolved by selling Kounde and we showed that we are economically powerful and we will not accept €50m. To say that Sevilla is broke is not to have affection for the club.

Basically, Donny van de Beek changed his agent from Guido Albers to Ali Dursun, the same agent who represents Frenkie de Jong and worked on his massive transfer from Ajax to Barcelona. The Voetbal International journalists imply that this is part of Donny's plan to eventually leave United sooner than later.

The translated Antón Meana quotes from the Sport Witness article:
Rüdiger’s entourage is asking for €12m clean. A few days ago, there was a call from a La Liga club, and that was the answer. On top of that price, there would be the signing bonus. The salary they are looking for is that amount.

So Rüdiger apparently wants €250k/week...no wonder Chelsea are reluctant to pay him.
