Fernando Llorente - ST - Athletic Bilbao (53 Viewers)

[Dostoevsky]

If confirmed after January, Llorente I'm sure will start to learn Italian.

I said it but it's the last thing to worry about. It's a lot of experience on the pitch, those six months.

This will sound desperate, but hopefully everyone at bilbao has given up on llorente's situation to be resolved and perhaps there's a slight chance they would release him now that's no point in buying more time, seeing he won't change his mind.

Then again mate he'll have a full pre season with us.

Then again mate he'll have a full pre season with us.

It can't be compared. It's random matches, this is Serie A.

5-6mln and I'd go for it now.

Hell, if Peluso is worth 5, then just pay 7mln and get it done.

i dont care about june

i want an able striker for CL now

 

[Fint]

As much as I'd like us to bring in a striker this transfer window, Red made a very valid point earlier that it would make far better sense to have Llorente arrive at a time when he can acclimatise to a new country/team/league etc. Too much would be expected of him were he to come in this early considering the pressures that would be placed upon him being Juve's answer to the 'forwards issue'.

I say deal with what we've got and get ourselves a bargain in he summer. Bringing back Gabbiadini or Immobile would make more sense to me.

 

[B3N]

Red's got a point, but still you can't overlook the possibility of other clubs interfering (inevitable) once he's completely out of contract, especially when it's summer and every club's active in the market. we may very well be forced to add this 7/8mil to up his salary duo to competition. ( I don't buy into these pre-signed contract talks)

 

[Nicholas]

I doubt Marotta will let him get away.

 

[petersmit]

in my opinion we should give bilbao those couple millions they want.. (something like 5-7 million?) Llorente hasn't played that much this year and needs some time to adapt to the italian league... better to do that now (with a gap of 8 points and such) than doing that next year...

 

[Badass J Elkann]

Llorente - Conte is a great coach

Llorente - But De Boer is better

 

[Mark]

Forza Nando, Beppe, and Conte.

 

[Nicholas]

Where is everyone getting, Bilbao only want a couple of million from?

They want his buyout clause paying or else he'll stay till the Summer.

 

[Nejc]

Bilbao really are doing themselves a favor. Nobody will sign a long contract with them after this bullshit with Llorente and Martinez.

 

[Klovn]

That's were you're wrong.

 

[B3N]

discussing Red's hypothetical theory if bilbao accept it should we do it.

Urrutia upon realizing what you just wrote:

 

[Nejc]

OK, maybe they just won't agree to contracts with retarded-high release clauses, which is not very good for Athletic either.

 

[petersmit]

so they want what... like.. 30M or something? stupid to let him leave for nothing if you can cash a good 7 million for him now...

 

[Zacheryah]

Considering how conte started at juve and benched vidal and other new signings for a while cause they "werent integrated in the team yet"


He will only bring Llorente in important games when he thinks he's ready. Before that, it'll just be serie a.

half a season of serie a games, is much better, then a preseason

yesterday they signed Ander Iturraspe until 2017 (release clause 40 million), Jonas Ramalho until 2015 (release clasue 25mil) and Enric Saborit until 2016 (release clause 25mil)
