Gandalf the Blue 1,384 Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Seems he wants an EPL move or nothing. I also think he'll be happy staying another year, but if an EPL club submits a decent offer, it'll turn his head Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

2nd Flute 14,036 Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 The money the Chinese can offer is unbelievable, but let's be honest, if your a young footballer at the top of your game, you want to play in the EPL or la liga, surely. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't doubt they would be willing to pay him big wages but I'm curious as to how sky know what wages are on offer and that they're willing to meet the valuation but they can't even tell us what that valuation is. Only that its "in excess of" £15m. I'm also curious as to where Morelos would fit into their squad if it was genuine as he would be the 5th foreign player in their squad when they're limited to playing 3. That's a lot of money for a bit part player. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gj923 1,457 Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Team in question already has the maximum allowed foreign players two of whom are proven strikers in the league. Think someone has been winding Sky up again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The chinese league is where footballing careers die. Look at Nico Gaitan. Benfica to Atletico Madrid and he was linked with Man Utd etc but went to China instead. Now he's kicking about the MLS. 2nd Flute 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sets the benchmark for what we’re looking for, plus a wee good news story about Alfie knocking back huge money. Not sure why everyone’s getting so angry. If it was the horrible Scottish media stirring up shite then surely they’d go with ‘Chinese club eyeing up big money offer’ to turn his head?

I don’t know any other team that gets bullshit called on their transfers like this. BridgeIsBlue 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Google most teams and you will see them linked with lots of players and made up stories with no actual links. Sporting lisbon had to deny reports that they have agreed a deal to sell Fernandes to Man Utd......there is also about a dozen other stories linking various players some of them involving permutations with other clubs.

Can't see what Sky would have to gain by making up the story and I certainly don't see it being the club. OhW 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Napoli were linked with biscuit hips for weeks and were supposedly asking to be kept informed by the taigs and they were trying to move on players to make way for him etc. It took Ancelotti being asked directly about that for him to deny interest.
