37m I thought.
€41m euro I've heard. We would need to bid €50m at least, beyond our price tag just like pogba
sure, but I am talking about future targets, His profile fits the mould albeit at the very high end of the transfer spectrum.
What we want to do is hire porto's scouts, that's the future.
Been the stand out player of the lesser known players.
I backed Columbia pre tournament too but thought they would struggle without Falcao but so far have looked boss.
They will take some beating.
Would love us to get him.

It's down to work permits and red tape with these young South American players, its not just Porto its all the big Portuguese teams that get these big talents.
When do any of the big clubs over here ever have a young South American come through their academy?
Brilliant yesterday. Had never seen him play but absolutely took the piss. Out of our price range but if Luis were to go, spunk the load on this fucker.
He performed extremely well at last years under 20 world cup in Turkey.
It's hard for any south american american player to turn down Porto, Sporting or Benfica.
Those 3 clubs have proven to be a magnificent platform for South American to make their name in Europe.
This lad is special. 22-years-old and he's shining on the biggest stage of international football.
What a talent he is. Fuck he's going to fuck Brasils shit up
He is not on BR's radar. This guy will cost £50 plus, and chances are he will end up at Real Madrid, if he does go anywhere. Lets stop getting our hopes up and talk about realistic targets.
50 quid!? We can buy him for the club. Anyone ever set up a just giving account?

[article=http://www.marca.com/2014/06/29/en/football/international_football/1404038474.html]James Rodríguez is becoming the star of this year's World Cup. The Colombian midfielder has scored in every one of his country's four games in Brazil and he is the tournament's top goalscorer. However, his childhood was far from an easy ride.
He was abandoned by his father at the age of three
James was born on 12th July 1991 in Cúcuta and he was just three when his father, a former footballer with Cali and Tolima walked out on his family. He was raised by his mother, Pilar Rubio, and his stepfather, Juan Carlos Restrepo.
He got married aged 19 and has one daughter
The star married Daniela, the sister of Colombia's first-choice goalkeeper, David Ospina. The couple's first child, Salomé, was born in 2013.
Oliver Atom is his idol and winning the Ballon d'Or is his dream
As a child, he didn't dream of emulating great Colombian players like Valderrama, Asprilla, Rincón... Instead, he wanted to be like the lead character in the cartoon football series 'Super Champions'. "One day winning the Ballon d'Or is the reason I train hard every day."
A bank guarantee stopped him joining Espanyol
Espanyol had a deal all but agreed with Argentine side Banfield to sign the youngster, but the deal fell through due to the club's inability to ensure a bank guarantee for his transfer fee.
He was only 15 when he made his debut with Envigado
He scored his first goal at 16, and remains the youngest foreigner ever to score in Argentine football, aged just 17.[/article]
