How reputable is The Parisien?

 

Assuming it’s not a rehash, not the first time I’ve seen this story.

 

You can guess where I’m going next...

Pretty reliable but this one is just so vague it does not mean anything. And they can’t spend much without selling because of Neymar and M’Bappé’s wages.

Twitter transfer update:

 

Konate - scanned and in the shopping bag.

Sancho - being scanned.

Bissouma - still in the shopping basket.

Two of them in for scans already. Can we just have a team of Andy Robertsons who can run through brick walls without even getting a scratch?

Is it like one of those amazon shops where you leave before handing any money over?

Out of contract in 2022 & has allegedly told them he’s not resigning. 
 

So I’d assume, it’s they sell this summer or lose on a free next summer.

I'm guessing the Salah is in relation to Mbappe - but, the reason why Salah would consider PSG is because both Barcelona and Madrid have no money, so - how can Mbappe be moving to Madrid? 

 

I can see Salah going to PSG as I can see them paying the money we'd want for him. My worry is that he does want Madrid and by leaving his contract to its last year they could afford him. If that is the case then I think we have to sell him this year - Sancho being the obvious replacement! I have no problem with moving Salah on at the height of his value - so long as he is used to buy quality replacements, not to simply fund a general transfer window. If we can get £125m for Salah and that goes on Sancho and Gravenbach then I am fine with that. I wouldn't be fine with selling Salah and buying Konate, Bissouma, Mallen, Hlozek - and still keeping the likes of Origi, Wilson, etc.

The club's fucking mad to let Mo get into the last 2 years of his contract without opening talks. The last 2 years quickly becomes 1 and as we all know, 1 year quickly becomes free to talk to foreign clubs in the last 6 months.

 

Selling Mo, would be like selling Keegan, Torres etc. Unless he really wants to go or wants a ludicrous amount of wedge, the club needs to sort this shit and quick.

Totally agree. I'm not sure what the delay is - the pandemic can't be the sole reason. He is our best forward, so we face the potential of losing the top scorer in the league and having to change the way we play - I think Mo allows us to accommodate Firmino, without Mo scoring the way he does the centre forward needs to score more.

I get what your saying about Keegan and Torres etc but we also then got Dalglish and Suarez. 
 

It’s obviously a massively tall order but it might be convenient for both us and PSG to come to a mutual arrangement on Salah and Mbappe. 
 

From reading articles it seems like we’ve previously tried to do a lot of ground work on Mbappe. I’d even accept writing into Mbappes contract that in 3 /4 seasons, if he wants, we’d be prepared to negotiate with Madrid for him - he’d still only be 27-ish then.
