Think it’s highly possible that we weren’t agreeing a % future resale clause on Todibo, given how we’ve specifically included those in the majority of players sold so far this summer and an acceptance that any of our players are for sale at a certain price.

The Langlet rumor has to be a joke, the same Langlet that flopped at Barca and they desperately trying to get rid off for how many years now? Rather keep Rugani in that case.

Don’t believe it for a moment, his wages are the main reason they couldn’t offload him permanently.

Hermoso, El Sharaway, Berardi, a random guy from Scotland...

Nice Mercato targets Empoli is having.
Hermoso ain’t even half as bad but will ask for high wages too, however i think Langlet fits better in the irrelevant has beens list there

People losing their shit when we were quoted to offer 50mln+ for Koopmeiners yet blame the club for not obeying Nice's request of 40mln + 25% of future sale for Todibo :lol:. You guys are hopeless.

What about Hermoso? He is a free agent…. Bologna went for him and he rejected them.

Any good?
Left footed CB that can also play LB at times, might be fine as a backup but probably not as the main man, and will demand high wages. Could still be a better gamble than other jabronis we’ve been linked with though.

he was starter for Atleti last year. The issue is salary, he was earning 4-4.5m at Atleti and will probably demand 5m+

I guess there is a reason why he is still a free agent in August, not many are willing to match his demands on a long term contract when he is already 29yo, but it’s also true that without a transfer fee we might at least consider working something out, especially knowing he can cover both as left footed CB and makeshift LB.

Btw are there any actual links to him or just us speculating? :D

Inter was highly interested, but Marotta was blocked by the new owners, they didnt accept 29 yo on high salary

A bit odd that Atletico themselves didn’t match it though, especially seeing how they can afford to splash huge transfer fee’s this summer, think they could’ve still used him but probably had other plans or just didn’t believe he is worth those wages either.

yeah, they preferred to sign Le Normand for 40m, which to me isnt even a good defender.
