Bullshit, they can’t stump up 50M for Kounde



"At that time, Barcelona are said to have struck. It is claimed that the Catalans’ offer might not have been as high as Chelsea’s but they promised the entire payment in one go, which seemingly convinced them to shake hands with the Catalans."

It takes CASH to do that.

+ Raphina
+ Lewandowski.
+ Whoever else they set their sights on before the window closes.


This is a silly argument. You're lying to yourself if you think FCB & RM aren't a draw.... Especially for South American players.

They are a draw. But they ain’t stumping you 100M for a CB, ever

This is baseless bluster. Just like it was when you just wrongly claimed that Barca can't/won't spend 50m.

I shall just repeat my first post:

"I wouldn't take [him being here for 10 years] for granted...... Before too long, we'll have to fight tooth and nail to keep him from the likes of Real & Barca."


Elite players get courted by elite clubs... That's just the nature of the beast.

Many thanks pastor
 
So - I just heard something funny.

I was watching Sky Sports News and the transfer show.
On came South American 'Expert' Tim Vickery, who gave his views on Nunez and a few others. It came to some South American defender and the 'expert' said a South American Defender moving to the prem is not guaranteed, and used Romero as an example, he said "lets not forget how Romero was bullied by Michael Antonio of West Ham last season..

I'm just cleaning up the coffee I spat out over the TV. What a Moby.

To be fair, in the first fixture Antonio gave Romero one of his toughest games of the season. So I wonder if Vickery was referring to that particular game as it was still early into Romero's Prem career.

But in the reverse fixture in March, Romero absolutely dominated him. No question about it. That game in general was one of Romero's best games for us.
 
Anybody have any information about his salary?


Listed here at 165k per week. Also has Bryan Gil at 80k, which feels a bit off to me.

IIRC.... Last season Romero was still on Atalanta wages as he was technically on loan. New season new = money as far as I can tell..... Perhaps we compensate him in back-pay within some kind of signing on fee this summer....?

Details out there have been both vague and in some cases contradictory, but sure there was some kind of club-derived comment recently that confirmed he had a purchase option that we would trigger within 12 months of the date he joined us on loan (so within the next couple of weeks).....


165kpw wouldn't suprise me though..... He was a pre-Conte signing for a team that had just finished 7th so there must have been something to entice him.

Gil: no idea, but yeh... Seems a bit high(*).

(*Prob with these wage sites is that their data will be derived from various sources so for example; just cos they have Kane correct it doesn't mean other player info aren't guess-work or mis-information.)
