Arsenal in talks with Mustafi. Makes sense for both Arsenal and Mustafi. They get a quality CB and Mustafi will play for a CL-club.

His release clause is 50M€. You sure Arsene will splash that much money on player especially on defender?

Doens't mean they have to pay 50M
The release clause implies the club has to accept that offer.

They sold Otamendi for €34M last season and with absurd prices on market this season, they will probably reject anything under €40M. Slim chances for this transfer really IMO.

Kevin Gameiro to Atletico Madrid is official. Fee is €32M plus €5M variables.

Sevilla will pay €4M for Luciano Vietto's loan which includes an option to buy for €20M.

Bild reports transfer Sane is done.
37M which can rise to 55M with bonuses.

Insane.

i guess diego costa to atletico is dead now. also paying 29 year old that much money is not really atletico way, lets hope they dont revert back to transfer policy of late 90s and go bankrupt again.

Vietto will probably be a better player than Gameiro in two years at latest. Great deal for Sevilla.

Looks like Draxler might be on the move again this summer.

It's curious that there is no mention of where he wants to go.

Draxler is an arrogant twat. Would love if he is stuck in mediocrity in Wolfsburg for another year or two.

I have a hunch he might end up at Arsenal or Juventus. No real reason, they just seem likely destinations.

I'm thinking Arsenal as well. Between Pjaca and Pjanic, Juventus don't really need him any longer.

Baph, thoughts on N'Koudou?

I won't claim to have much by way of expertise on him, but I think it's a fairly underwhelming transfer. From what I understand, he's quite an athlete and is useful in a setup that allows him to break, but lacks polish. I don't see him getting those kind of opportunities for Spurs, except in matches where we're expected to be on the backfoot (away against the likes of City, United, etc.)

Since we ordinarily have so much possession and face many parked buses these days, I don't see him being terribly useful. I've watched plenty of highlights, and most of them involve him knocking the ball past his defender and using his pace to break the defensive lines. What we need is a winger who can plant the ball precisely on Kane's head, not another Townsend/Lennon, especially when we already have another premier athlete like N'Jie who hasn't been given much of a fair shake.

I'd like to see Draxler at Arsenal.

sure they could use him, especially if pogba departs. pjaca is very raw and pjanic cant play on the left. there have been plenty of occasions where allegri had to depend on players like morata, alex sandro and asamoah on wide left. morata is gone and other two are not good enough.

i wont believe it until no.20 confirms it though.

Sandro is good enough to play where ever he wants

They use a left winger about 10% of the time. Alex Sandro and Pjaca is more than enough. If they buy him it will be because they intend to use him centrally as they had planned to last season, but their priority seems to be a holding player at the moment.
