They know both teams are willing to pay £100ms for Caicedo, so whoever loses out will have to probably pay more than Southamptons evaluation for Lavia.


Cue all the Liverpool fans saying that he's crap and they didn't want him anyway.


He's great, better than Rice, Rodri can't carry his boots, he's worth £250m easily...


And to add to this, as good as Caicedo is, he doesn't hold a candle to Bajcetic. :wink:
It's time for 5 refs.

Edit: 90m? Reasonable value for PSG, and you're not selling him to a euro rival. Futbol economy is ridiculous right now though, it's kinda scary.


Big loss for PSG (financially).
I remember when the Dolphins were perennial contenders

Don’t think anyone is going to miss him in Ligue 1 or Champions League lol


One of the most overrated frauds in football history. I remember a long time ago on here, there was a lot of debate about who would be the bigger talent, Neymar or Mario Gotze. While it looked absurd at the time, and still probably is when you compare their career outputs, I don't think anyone predicted that both would be also-rans by the time they hit 30.


Well, they got loaded with money and then moved to other priorities than football. :lol:

There's money spent and then there's money spent wisely.

Very funny that Chelsea has changed their fairly shrewd approach of buying every prospect they can for their academy and instead adds a few zeroes to buy prospects for their first team. All I know for sure is that Stormi must be happy as a clam right now.

Liverpool's answer to missing on Caicedo and Lavia is signing 30-year old Endo from VfB Stuttgart.

Good player but 19 mil. for him one year before the contract ran out is a glorious overpay.

Desperation.

Every single club knows LFC not only is in need of a defensive midfielder but also willing to spend, as seen by the Caicedo bid.

EDIT: VfB Stuttgart wasn't going to sell its captain (also Japan's captain), despite having only one year left on his contract, for pennies. I did read the club was trying to extend him prior to this.

They had little hope of extending him. They can't pay him as much as the big clubs and if he ran his contract down he'd get a lot more and they'd get nothing.

I'm still amazed that Liverpool didn't pick up Tielemans on a free. Ideal Hendo replacement.

Seems like PSV is interested in signing Dest from Barca.
I hope the deal falls apart because it is also said that Mainz are interested in signing Mwene from PSV. But PSV will only accept if they get Dest.
Had Mwene in Mainz before. Very injury prone. Had a couple good months in 3 years and then immediately left to PSV for free.
Also we need a LB and he is right footed. Doesn't appear like the best option.

Chelsea deal for Olise broke down, and he signed a new contract at Palace. Good for him.

It has been rumoured that Palace were going to show that Chelsea tapped him up and that ended the deal.

I had a brief stay in Malaga once and I was just walking around.

There was a crowd gathered near a hotel.

Apparently Barcelona was visiting that weekend and the crowd were waiting for the bus bringing Barca players.

Well at least they now have fans which care about the local club.

Chelsea have scored 21 league goals in 2023 , they're closing in on an MLS keeper for signing number 19 on the year and want another forward for signing #20.

This is boxoffice
