Also worth noting the biggest fee they’ve ever received for a player was £5m. Article states they won’t accept less that we offered now. I think we’ll be back before the end of the window.
Think we might be back. Wonder if Reims will put pressure the agent. They can’t be happy with this situation either as they can’t replace him until he’s gone.
he really needs to fire his agent if that’s his attempt to whip up interest. We are currently in a life and death stand off with Lille over a couple of million but we’re gonna drop 400k a week on a jaded Neymar.
That Gabigol article references an article saying that Wolves are looking to sign him. It mentions us in passing as someone who was previously interested. Transfer tavern has spun that into a full article somehow.
Lilles attempt to start a bidding war has left them with less options that they had previously. They seem all over the place, desperate for money but constantly moving the goalposts. Reckon our pokerface will hold.
We’ve likely agreed terms with him already as that is usually the case. He’s obviously got some interest from Milan and Lille seem to be banking on them making a bid. Seems a dangerous game as if we walk away they will probably end up having to accept a good deal less.
JWP has a contract until 2026 unless they really need the money Southampton can demand a kings ransom.
I’d 100% have him here but the price tag will be prohibitive.
27th of June seem to be the date most teams are back. Makes playing all those nations league games look even more mental. Sort of thankful we don’t have too many internationals at the moment!
