You’re gonna have to do better than that, pal. At least post the tweets.
Lol. sorry. Last word on spurs , the spurs watch and a few other outlets that I don't know. Tier 1 thing that you all like. I don't know how to get it on here. I promise I won't do it again.

I think Inter don't really know what they want to do ether, a lot fo plate spinning from them trying to figure out what is the best move financially. They are essentially in a position where they don't want to sell anyone and only want to buy but the higher ups have told them they HAVE to sell. On top of that new factors keep coming into view. Im sure when the window opened the idea of Lukaku going back was a complete pipe dream and i also bet interest in Skriniar wasn't high enough to justify selling. Now Chelsea seem keen to deal at a price that isn't completely unrealistic for Lukaku an big bux PSG are sniffing around Skriniar. As mentioned previously, id be surprised if Paratici isn't watching the situation very carefully with eyes on Bastoni and Lautaro. Really this all hinges on Skriniar and how much PSG offer, if they are set on him and if they are willing to meet whatever asking price Inter feel they need in order to facility their transfer activity and meeting financial targets. Until Skriniar moves to PSG, or Chelsea if they suddenly decide to go full in for him, then i don't believe anything is completely dead.
PSG should just go sign Bremer. We can then swoop in like a knight in shining armour. Save them from financial ruin by buying Bastoni. Everyone’s a winner, well not Inter but screw them.

I don't really understand the dynamics of these 2 deals. Tottenham want Bastoni. PSG want Skriniar. Inter accepts either of them will go. So it is understandable Inter is holding out for knowing who bids the most. Bastoni seems to have been our number 1 priority for whom we still haven't bid officially. And PSG haven't bid officially for Skriniar either. So are PSG and Tottenham stalling each other ?

PSG are waiting to appoint Galtier today too so who knows if that has something to do with it.

Funny isn't it, they can't even afford to complete the Dybala deal yet they are negotiating a 10 mil loan for Lukaku full well knowing they can't even afford it right now. Im honestly surprised Dybala hasn't starting having second thoughts.
Inter players dying to stay there. Other players dying to join them.

Skriniar to PSG for that much money would be a strange one as they have Marquinos, Kimpembe and Ramos. Ramos could be leaving but I can't see Kimpembe being happy on the bench. Might be worth a cheeky enquiry if it goes through.

I'm starting to think Zhang will say to Marotta you can have all of these players you've lined up if you sell Lautaro and one of the CBs. Whether any of them end up with us is a different story.

I think similar happened last year where Marotta hoped selling one would be enough but Zhang needed more.

Would explain why Paratici is still lurking.

For a team in financial difficulty having a forward line of Dzeko, Correra, Lautaro then brining in Dybala and Lukaku is just overkill. Especially as they will likely have to sell De Vrij and possibly Dumfries alongside Skrinier if they want to bring in Bremer as well as meet their financial targets. They also just supposedly completed the 3 mil loan sining of Bellanova.

It's been suggested today that under Galtier (appointment to take over as psg boss imminent) PSG are transitioning to a 352 for the upcoming season so has priorities at CB in the market.

Hopefully, we've fully moved on to other targets now (if we hadn't already).

He isn't leaving.

I am sure we have moved on.

The worry is, Bremer and Gvardiol were the other top targets and are also not happening. You start to wonder if it isn't going to plan with LCB.

This is literally the same quote from a couple of weeks ago.

Yeah it's similar, but he's just come out again and said it again today.

He also mentioned a possible contract extension for Bastoni which he didn't before.

Either way, we should have moved on by now.

Romano is an overworked clicks whore who subsists on 3 hours of sleep, whatsapp voice messages, and 2 cups of Affigato.

The guy is a robot who constantly reposts stuff even if it isn't really news. At least it is usually accurate.

It probably isn't but when we are looking to bring in 6-8 players it's hardly surprising as every acquisition was never going to go smoothly.
