By all accounts he wanted to leave Roma but didn't get a move before the window closed and then was getting abuse from Roma fans, there are reports that they came to his house etc. So he had to leave asap and Turkey was the only option at the time due to the window being closed elsewhere. So i've read. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a huge falling out with Roma and basically had to leave. Turkey was the only place still able to take the transfer, so he ended up at Galatasaray, who rubbed their hands with glee knowing he's basically a guaranteed profit for them because he wasn't going to be hanging around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So i've read. His form in Turkey reads not too bad either. If the rumoured £8m loan fee is true then he is worth a punt plus provides immediate cover for the now injured Buendia. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhan_Zhuang Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Having never watched the player nor knowing of his circumstances I really didn't know... But thanks @PieFacE and @Chindie for your serious responses. And now I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obvious question, right? Thank you, took three posters to post a sensible answer... VT, never fails. Mate i was half joking.. chill. Don't know enough about him to really comment. I saw Neil from For the Love of Paul McGrath podcast, say he was chased out of his house by Roma Ultras after a poor performance, so that couldn't have been encouraging either. I still do agree that the " If X was so good why are they in X League and at X team " very one dimensional though. " If Unai emery is so good, why is he only at Villa " etc and the list goes on.

ender4 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Where has the £8m loan fee come from? A couple of hours ago it was £3m loan fee! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure, the overall deal seems to be 30m, so if loan fee is higher, optional fee will be lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jas10 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Shiiiiiiiiiiiiittt…… @romavillan and @allani have me crazy excited now!!! We HAVE to sign him! I didn’t realise he was quite that highly rated and quite that technically skilled… sounds like it’s just injuries that have hampered him and poor treatment from fans that affected him… he needs to come into a positive, family atmosphere….. welcome to Unai-versity where everyone thrives! He will feel the love, especially if he makes an immediate impact… N let’s get Chiesa to “help him settle” Wow, we would be an amazing team and tear opposition to shreds!

villaglint Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 I think most of us form our opinions on these players we’ve seen little to none of on the first YT video we see. I’ve been underwhelmed from the videos I watched. But then I found this one and he looks very very good indeed. Moral of the story is YT videos like our sharing of opinions are fun but nothing more. What they do in Villa shirt is all that matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marka Ragnos Posted August 10, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) Honestly think this is just going to have to be one of those urgent "mid-risk" signings where we just don't have many other good options. Gotta trust Monchi and Unai and the club on this one ... and hope for the best. Edited August 10, 2023 by Marka Ragnos 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVByrne Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 We have to sign someone. We can't lose a player like Buendia with the window still open and actually not replace him. We need another attacking player 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
