We are apparently going for Mukiele...

Seems like it. Would be ideal as he can play both RCB and RWB, but I'm really finding it hard to see us hijacking this deal. 
French player being targeted by the biggest club in France - that's quite tough competition. However, I'd be more happy with either Kimpembe/Gvardiol/Mukiele than Kounde/Aké. Could potentially be that we'll get neither of the above.

Apparently Juve want Werner according to Romano and to think they rejected him when we offered him for De Ligt. We should honestly stop doing business with teams like Barca and Juve that want their cake and to eat it too.

If they are willing to pay us even 30mill bite their hand off for it. No loans though, they have De Ligt money now.

Yea, right? Who in their right mind would offer Werner for deLigt? 😄

But honestly: they knew there is a good market for De Ligt and they also knew that there isn't for Werner. Beggars can't be choosers and all that.

 
Deals are deals.  When do "swap" deals ever work? "Swap" deal and cash for such and such. They never work. They seldom ever happen. They have nothing to do with Football Clubs, they are media inventions. Please forget forever the idea of the 'swap deal'.

Maybe back in the days of Noel Edmunds and Cheggers but those days are long gone ;). The only swap deal I can think of where we did well was Ashley Cole for Gallas. At the time I remember quite a few were unhappy with that, but I am pretty sure we got the good end of the deal

Knowing Italian teams they will still try to get a cheap deal despite making money from a sale. The board have probably already taken 80% of that money for 'other expenses'.

 
With Kounde (now hopefully) dead and buried, I think that we have to now ignore players in Spain, Italy, France etc. We need players that have plenty of Prem experience and can hit the ground running.

Just for discussion, here's a bit of a list, that we might be able to get before the end of the window,  what do you think?

Defenders

1. Wesley Fofana (Leicester), 2. Joachim Andersen (Palace) , 3. Jannik Vestergaard (Southampton), 4. Ezri Konsa, (Villa) 5. Fabian Schar (Newcastle)

Midfield

1. Declan Rice, 2. Jude Bellingham,3. Emile smith Rowe, 4. James Maddison, 5. Jacob Ramsey

Strikers

1. Ronaldo, 2. Ivan Toney, 3. Jamie Vardy, 4. Firmino, 5. Mbeumo

We cant cut contracts and bin them on a free as it would have a huge impact on ffp, it would demolish any spending we can do.

Most of these players contracts run out in 2023 so TT is stuck with them unless as we normally do, send them out and keep paying a large % of their wages.

Well we know the likes of Rice and Bellingham aren't going anywhere and apart from an aging Ronaldo and part-timer Vardy; the rest are at these clubs because they simply aren't good enough for a top side.   

 
Who would swap Callum Wilson plus St Maximin for Callum Hudson Odi?  .....I'm in.  Although he's had a few injuries and he might be 30 but Wilson is a proven PL forward who can score goals, especially against Arsenal 😊....just a thought....oops forgot TT needs about another 6 central defenders before thinking about playing attacking football.

Fofana I would definitely take, wouldn't want any of the others in that defenders list. Maybe Guehi coming back could happen but not sure.

I would definitely take Rice and Bellingham but don't think they will move this summer. I think we will (as well as other clubs) be in for Rice next summer when he only has a year left on his contract. I would take Maddison. Don't think there's much of a chance that Arsenal would sell us ESR.

Forwards - I have come round to the idea of Ronaldo but I don't think that will happen. I would take Vardy but it would be very short term thinking, and our style of play wouldn't suit him at all. I'm not convinced Toney and Mbuemo are good enough to play for a 'top' side.  

 
TT has lobbied the PL to give its approval for Chelsea to use new goal posts and nets for all CFC games this season. If approved it's hoped that CFC's GA average will be reduced and provide time while it is still looking around the world for another 6 central defenders which TT believes is crucial to CFC's success this season...

Exactly. What's in it for them

 
Really worried we are going to fish deep into right back waters and move Reece James to CB position. Hopefully I am wrong.
