Thiago Alcantara is close to signing for Manchester United from Bayern Munich. [@SPORT]

 

This same media channel claimed last week he was close to joining us.

If that is true and does happen, every clubs scouting policy must be hijack whoever liverpool are deemed to want.

We should just go and scout a load of Hodgson era standard players so Chelsea and the Mancs buy them thinking they are getting one over on us.

He’d be an ideal player. Can comfortably fill in at LB, RB and CM. 

If he wants first team football then is he going to sign for us to "fill in" or is he good enough to be a regular starter? I don't think he is.

Lille's Victor Osimhen is close to joining Napoli for €70m. 

 

We were linked with him a few times. Lille seem to be really good at getting big money for their players. 

Italian clubs not buying the global pandemic has bankrupt every club line.

Their record of buying defenders is not great, they've wasted some serious money and pep has completely crushed stones trying to make him into beckenbauer. Koulibally has looked fucking brilliant every time I've seen him play, so I'd be disappointed if they got him, otherwise I expect them to just splash the cash, let pep get in their heads and complicate their job and completely ruin them as he does with nearly  every defender.

I don't think they can get Koulibaly. He's almost 30, would cost around 100m and he has professed his loyalty to Napoli plenty of times. Too many barriers to that deal happening. 

 

In reality, all they need is someone solid to put next to Laporte and that shouldn't take so much investment. He's their van Dijk, when he's fit things are usually ok at the back.

Yeah, but pep doesn't go for solid. He looks for another ballerina. As I said in my other post, just look at his (city's) record at buying defenders. They buy loads of them at some price too, laporte is the only decent one they've bought in the whole of the last decade.
