Condimentalist Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 (edited) £40m I can take. £50m is a bit rich I feel. I am surprised we aren't going for a potentially younger, cheaper option. If true, I can only think the Newcastle takeover has prompted a bit of a now or never strategy.

WTF is going on with the case, yes I know what’s going on via this thread and some media reports but it’s not being talked about otherwise as if things are normal. I would guess some sort of reporting restrictions are in place around it. Either to protect him or so not to prejudice any future court case. I’m just guessing though.

Perfect fit for the big hole we have in our side at the perfect age and experience in both this league and this level and will have resale value in 2-3 years if required. £50m I can take because of all that, I hope we could get it done for £40m.

Like every journo ignoring the elephant in the room when talking about this potential transfer. Makes you wonder who’s feeding the press re our interest anyway.

jacketspuds Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 If saying £50m is the only way we can get Bissouma, we should pay it. He is the best option for right now and would transform the midfield. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 One thing is for sure, if we don’t sign him this January, we definitely aren’t signing him in the Summer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah there definitely some fire with the smoke re the transfer but where from is the question but the elephant is dancing re the arrest and either people are just avoiding for the time being or they know something we don’t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why I’m less bothered about the price. We just need to get the deal done. Assuming all things are ok re arrest case 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
