Just Nas and the lads enjoying a meal and planning our epic transfer window and CL adventure.

Loan or termination?

AFAIK his contract was terminated last week and it just has not been announced yet.

 

The termination will show as a loss on our balance sheet (as we're stumping up some of his remaining contract), hence why we're waiting until July first to officially process it.  If we didn't it would negatively impact our PSR position for this financial period.

It’s probably Nas’ hotel/restaurant…

Kayode and Todibo in, Cash and Carlos out. That is the solution.

Correct, just need to find buyers

Loads of clamour for Calafiori, never really seen him play. Is he better than Hermoso?

Would be funny of he insisted on everyone paying their own lunch. ”Money don’t grow on trees!”

Likely to be a superstar, only 22 as well.

Italy's defence is going to be incredible in a year or so (the defence playing at the moment is pretty ropey out wide) - Donnarumma (25) Kayode (19) Bastone (25) Calafiori (22) Udogie (20).  That's got the potential to be one of the best back 5s in international football.

My boys know ball…

Would love to sign Calafiori but he seems set for Juve (grr… making great signings) and Bologna have a significant sell on percentage.

He’s class and only going to get better.

How about Scalvini? Poor guy misses Euros w injury.

Italy need midfielders and strikers… looking quite weak. Never known them to be at such a low level…

So no dramas then, just a little warning to not get carried away 

Fair market value.  Good luck with that one.

[villaglint]

Can any of the FFP expert on here explain what an arms length transaction is? I have no idea.

Italy haven't had a good striker for a while now.  I think because all the kids wanted to be Del Piero or Totti.  I don't think the midfield is all that "off" - trouble is the fullbacks are both intent of giving the ball away and not tracking their man and there's very little goal threat up top.  With a solid defence, some genuine pace out wide and a natural goalscorer I think a couple of the midfielders would suddenly look a bit (potentially a lot) better.  Really need a genuine international striker and then the rest would follow.

Just imagine trying to interact with a bluenose but also trying to avoid the smell at the same time

Any that is seen as disadvantagous to Man Utd, Liverpool, Arsenal or Spurs.

which is meaningless drivel, clubs collude with each other on loads of transfers.

Sky sports would refer to it as a carousel of transfers or waiting for the dominos to fall aka if x team sells this player then x team can buy y teams player and y team can buy z teams player etc.

Completely meaningless, no teeth what so ever
