Transfer Rumours 21/22

[Donavan Ried]

There are one or two rumours doing the rounds that we (LFC) have a deal in place for Lautaro Martinez. I take it with a pinch of salt. But should it be true does it point to us selling one or two of our forwards and if so who...
If it is true I would think that Mane would be the main one. He plays mainly from the left. We have both Jota, and Daiz who also likes playing from the left along with Origi. You would think that both Mane and Origi would be sold in that case...

Yes he (Lautaro Martinez) has also been heavily linked with City, but would City be spend money on both Martinez and Harry Kane, who they have been actively chasing? Kane makes more sense for given the "Home Grown" quota

With both Mane and Origi being foreign players we (LFC) would simply be trading 2 players for1 in that department

As I said It is a rumour

Lautaro Martinez is too slow, Serie A suits him.

Barella is the real gem in that Inter team, not Martinez.

Do you think Barella is worth £100m, that's what Inter want for him?

 

[i_rushie]

We'd never pay £100m for any player, so that's moot. But would we improve the team more with someone like Barella than with a Martinez? Undoubtedly, yes.

[LeTallecWiz]

Sounds ... problematic

 

[Modo]

Great reply by his agent:

 

[Buddha]

His agent is a prick

 

[Modo]

Is Mané really only on 100k a week?

 

[dmishra]

Is Mané really only on 100k a week?

I think his last extension put him at about 200k

 

[Hansern]

His agent is a prick

Yeah, his constant "cryptic" messages on Twitter are fucking horrible. Mo should have a word as it's not a good look for them.

his agent is being the ballbag Mo needs (wants?) him to be

 

[Hansern]

The quotes are set up different from the various journos:

And thats fine in a negotiation. But the social media stuff is just child like behaviour.

 

[SummerOnions]

His agent is a prick

I think the list of nice agents for big clients must be pretty small

 

[Beamrider]

Buddha's right. He is a prick. Mo is his only client of note. Once this deal (or a transfer somewhere else) is done he's got no more major pay days coming his way. So he's milking it for all he's worth.

 

[keniget]

"All fine".

Really sounds it, yeah.

 

[The Nomad]

"All fine".

Really sounds it, yeah.

Klopp obviously saying 'if he dies.. he dies'.

 

[Dirty Sanchez]

If we're going to sell him, I can only hope that we are swift and decisive about it - allowing us sufficient time in the transfer window to get a suitable replacement and have them settle in with the team. Trouble is, I think that this is an unlikely way that it plays out.

 

[rurikbird]

His agent is a prick

Big Trump fan too, apparently.

 

[King Binny]

I wouldn't mind if we sell Salah, get a worthy replacement and manage to persuade Klopp to stay on to build another team (surely he would be tempted to manage TAA and Elliot as they enter they peak?)

 

[Pesam]

RIP Pesam

Yeah, I haven't been around much lately, I really need to get into some sort of routine and get back on here. I'm off back to manchester for 10 days as of tomorrow morning and will endeavor to post more when I get back.

Raphinha will be available for £25 mill in a few months

Klopp staying at the club is way more important than keeping Salah

Dont forget to wear PPE

 

[rurikbird]

Even considering the "Liverpool curse," it's unbelievable how much of a disastrous transfer it was for all parties.

 

[Hansern]

In hindsight, I think we let him go at the right time in all honesty.

He'd have been fine here - it's just he's gone to a team which doesn't fit him etc ...

I think Elliot is a decent player, I'm not sure he will ever be in the same bracket as Trent. I'm not suggesting we sell him, I was all for keeping Wilson. I just don't have a huge expectation for him. Hopefully I am proved wrong
