OK, so we are reluctant to loan Telles. What about flat out selling him? No word of that as far I can see.

Translation:

The original Tweet also mentions that Chelsea are capable of offering 175 million Pounds for Haaland.

Why would we want to sell him when we just bought him? We need squad depth and competition for places. Stops complacency

Milan are interested in Santos's Kaio Jorge, but their offer (5-6 million Euros) is not close to what Santos wants (10 million Euros). Kaio Jorge's contract expires at the end of 2021, but the player and his entourage would rather Santos receive a fee for his sale than go away for free.

EDIT: English Tweet

An amazing fee for an amazing player. I know he has a year left on his contract but getting Varane for what amounts to less than 45m pounds, is outstanding business. A proven winner in his prime. Adds the qualities in defence we lack, the pace, the maturity, extra authority in the air, ability to play out from the back.He and Maguire is a partnership I could only have dreamed of three years ago. What a step up!

We are really supporting Ole and his vision for the team. Bruno, AWB, Maguire, Cavani, Sancho, the recruitment under him has been superb. Add Varane to that and it will be amazing. Still question marks over VdB, but too soon to judge. And James was a low cost punt of mixed success so far. But even our youth recruitment has shown considerable improvement, hoovering up some top, top talents like Amad and Mejbri. He continues to clear out the deadwood too, and I expect to see a few faces depart this summer that free up wages. It feels like the days of incoherent, shit against the wall panic buying is over.

Man city sell a player no one heard of for 13m. And we cant shift our squad players for that amount.
Maybe you haven't heard of him, but he just won the U21 european cup with Germany, scoring the winning goal in the final. ;)

Official: Brighton sign 6'8" keeper Kjell Scherpen from Ajax.
He's a giant but he looked awful every time Ajax played him. Shitting himself (and Tadic missing a pen) lost them the EL quarter final. The only time he looked okay was in u21 euro groups. His replacement being a 37 year old lifelong Eredivisie keeper says it all really.

That’s Spezia, not Venezia.
And Spezia's ban doesn't take effect immediately: "starting from January 2022 till the summer of 2023" @Cee90

Berger wants to be the German Romano.
If he isn't just copying Romano, it is interesting that the contract length has essentially become common knowledge. Makes me very excited that we leaked it because Varane agreed.
