January Transfer Rumours

Whilst I hope that we stay up (obviously), I'd like us to have another crack at Burnley next season as revenge for that awful match a few weeks ago. Assuming Burnley stay up too of course.
Don't have to wait until next season, we play Burnley again on 22nd February, at Turf Moor.

We'll beat them up there, by the way.
 
So who is the young centre-back worth £50 million?

We know of one who has been mentioned with a £40 million figure.


Sky Sports News reporter Kaveh Solhekol reveals Chelsea are very keen to sign a centre-back from a Premier League rival who is worth up to £50m.

He told The Transfer Show: "I think the targets they are looking at are wide players and also a striker.

"They are in for Wilfried Zaha but it will difficult to sign him from Crystal Palace, they do not want to sell him but it is significant that he has changed agents and will now be represented by Pini Zahavi. He's close to the Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich.

"There is also Jadon Sancho but he will cost a lot of money - he could could over £100m. That is a deal that is more likely to happen in the summer if he were to leave Germany.

"There is Moussa Dembele, we know they are interested in signing him from Lyon, but we are being told that he would like to come back to England but Lyon really want to hold on to him because of their injury problems.

"Then there is the left-back situation where their dream signing would be Ben Chilwell, but again it would be almost impossible to sign him from Leicester because they are not going to sell him.

"There is one other player whose name has been mentioned to me, he is a central defender at a rival Premier League club. We have been told Chelsea are very keen on signing him and some of the agents that are involved in the deal think it could happen this month. A young, very promising centre-back who would cost at least £50m."
 
I don't think Chelsea will sign him thankfully as they need bigger than Ake,
and anyone who still calls them Chelski is a certified nonce who gets pushed aside in the busy queues in Tesco.

Don't know if Jamaal Lascelles is still out Billy. No way is Dunk worth £ 50m. The only other one I can think of is Mings .
 
Seems like a noting story to me... just regurgitating stuff we've seen with no concrete evidence of anything... Why are 'we' all of a sudden so keen to sell one of our prized assets...? Even if we got relegated and Ake stayed, he'd be a worth a lot more to the club in a summer bidding war than a cheap sell off now...

He is absolutely worth £40+ million...
 
You will never guess, one week into the transfer season and we have not brought anybody new in for our 6 pointer on Sunday, and we are talking about who is leaving instead.
