I would say that was Tosin’s replacement but, evidently, teams don’t wait to get replacements before they let players go so just an independent move for another CB.

The backline was looking a little thin with the departures of Jo Bryan and Shane Duffy, whether or not Monaco close the deal on Tosin.
Anyway, you can never have too many centre backs ;-)

He gonna use all that money to build a time machine to get the money to these ancestors??
Think Fulham are doing some smart business. Don’t get me wrong I would want CHO or Bassey at Spurs but I feel they are solid signings that will keep them comfortably afloat in the league again
Look, 700k a week opens a lot of doors.
Losing Tosin & Mitrovic will significantly counterbalance those purchases..... Potential for them to lose Paulinha too.
If that happens; I'd be worried if I was Fulham.... They'd have lost their 2 standout players from last season.

Granted my knowledge of the smaller clubs around Europe isn't vast, maybe this guy's a great talent, but it amazes me the fees that these clubs on the continent seem to consistently rake in for players I've never heard of, and yet they all plead poverty when it comes to signing any of our players.bus-conductor
Chelsea agree deal with Rennes for midfielder Lesley Ugochukwu. Fee approx £23.5m. Long term contract for 19yo. Medical due next 24hrs.
I’ve not seen loads of this kid, he only really started getting games last year and then only a handful, but the bits I have seen he seems like one of those 6 types that Ligue 1 churns out in abundance. Big, strong, athletic. Technique and tenacity seems ok but not outstanding (but he’s only 19, and I didn’t see much so might be better than I remember).
At 19, seems like a gamble for the kid, as I don’t think he gets loads of game time at Chelsea, but maybe they’re going to park him at Strasbourg. Either way, think he might have been better off staying at Rennes for at least another 12-24 months.
I was impressed with him when he first started out.
Got found out
Faux support. Nothing more than lip service to enhance his own brand
Certainly didn’t foresee this situation thats caught him out to be the fraud he is
They have spent £600m and sold some players and look no better than the team 2-3 seasons ago maybe worse. Still think Poch will get a good tune out of them but I can see why they are going balls out for Caicedo as Enzo Fernandez isn’t a proper DM and will get exposed as he did a lot last season if they don’t partner him with a dominate midfielder.
Agree but the fee looks high
If this works out, it’s one less avenue open for Harry next year. His options are dwindling…..
Are we just nowadays accepting that tapping up is a thing? He accepted his contract ten days ago, but deal only agreed with the club today?
I think they've got a load of unknown quantities in that team and a few who I really think do have potential but haven't shown it yet & Pochettino is the perfect coach for that. Either it all goes tits up this season or they'll be brilliant under him.
That Jackson has looked good in pre-season apparently but erm... its pre season so hard to judge at all. Caciedo is superb, probably not worth 80-90m but the markets fucked and he is one of the best defensive minded midfielders in the league.
