And yet Sevilla knocked back a decent offer, over 50 wasn’t it?  Having said that he also started on the bench at least one game recently. 

That was because of how late we left it. We gave them no time to find a replacement. 

Sevilla goals against is just 17 in 25 games this season, easily the best in La Liga.

Talented footballer but haven't seen enough to reassure me he isn't a liability. 

Hopefully Tuchel and the club know what they are doing. 

We’re surprisingly good at signing defenders so I’m hoping he’s a good one. Can’t think of too many duds over the years. 

Hopefully we dont waste as much time as we did last summer. Excited for some new signings nonetheless.

Let's not waste money here, especially an extortionate amount on the wrong type of player.

Seems a done deal apparently. 

Pros: Young, great ability on the ball, a tank, can play CB, RCB, or RB. 

Cons: Poor decision making in dangerous areas. 

 

In London today. 

....Tottenham-bound then!

Well we needed someone to pay for his flight!

One thing that makes no sense to me. He can so many media people be sure this deal is almost done, yet we are falling behind on transfers and losing players as we cannot offer them new deals. These two things don't go together.

In La liga team of the season for the second year in a row. 

Del Horno gets a bad rep.

Seems like we're signing a Rudiger replacement alright 😅

I like the prospect of he and James together on the right. 
 

Both “built different”.

If I'm not mistaken, that is a Juventus-shirt! He is going to Turin. Not Chelsea! Seriously guys, keep your eyes peeled. 👀

I wear my Chelsea T-shirt in Melbourne and have worn it Cologne and some other European and middle eastern countries. 

 

Not official yet, but the deal does seem to be all but done according to a few sources. I'd expect an announcement in the next week or so dependant on if ownership is resolved in next 48 hours

Odd. I thought we were under sanctions. Tuchel has been suggesting that we can’t even talk to potential targets. Has Marina been tapping players up? Good on her.
