2024/2025 Defenders Rumours Thread

Forget signing Renan. Its a russian club. EU sanctions will never let European club deal with Zenit.

Real Madrid wanted him, but realized the deal is almost impossible.

? But then again isnt Torino selling Vlasic there? I remember some transfer talk.

Ah who knows.

Welcome Ricardo Rodriguez!

Don’t apply for everything, it’s personal sanctions on those close to Putin, 2200 individuals in total, her financial, weapons, media, energy and it technology. Then there certain things and services banned but football players are not among those.

Anyway wanna know more precisely

Anyway I don’t think EU will be so that players cannot get out of their contract from a Russian teams.

Loan + option seems like the only solution with Kiwior. I'm seeing Arsenal asking simply too much for the guy. Doesn't make sense to buy the player for 25m+ price if he's ultimately still only bench option behind Bastoni.

 

[Capo]

So Cabal ended up costing Juve 11M transfer fee + 1.8M commission + 2M possible bonuses. So 12.8M-14.8M.

And yet some think we can sign Renan.....

We must have the best scouting network in the game, if Marotta keeps finding these diamonds. I dont know how much longer a club like Inter can fight in four tournaments, expected to win Serie A with low cost solutions.

 

[Cane]

At some point you need to pony up the bucks to win long term. Nobody is that much smarter than everyone else, not even Marotta.

 

[Il Drago]

In France they report Inter made a 12m offer for a young Nantes cb that was rejected

 

[magnesium]

Why Our budget 12m
Better sign Ricardo Rodriguez than wasted 12m for next Dalbert

 

[Corrode]

Ricardo Rodriguez is also a flop as bad as Dalbert.

Better secure Hermoso.

 

[Gal]

It’s really hard getting all excited with our budget lower than that of a EFLC team and with players most have never heard off.

Of course Inzaghi favors the washed up guy

Nathan Zeze. At Inter, where people sees Leoni, Topalovic or Alex Perez as infants, this kid should never be considered. As they are more or less at the same age

 

[magnesium]

He only 31.. if Darmian can improve a lot, why he can't. Perfect age for Inter.

 

[Gal]

Of course Inzaghi favors the washed up guy

And Oaktree doesn’t seem to like getting players over 26, it’s a match made in heaven

 

[CafeCordoba]

Of course Inzaghi favors the washed up guy

Inzaghi favors the guy he can get.

For those who may not be aware, please note that the mod team is now taking a zero tolerance approach to posts of a political nature. I would advise some of you that discrimination or bias against older people is ageism, and such posts are therefore not acceptable.

 

[IM21]

Marotta and co must be having a blast. You have a coach that wants old timers and on the other side you have the owners, who want youngsters. And you also have a middle ground with these 23-26 year olds, that would be fine with everyone, but the problem is that they cost too much... so good luck.

This should have been done by now anyway. We are looking for a Buchanan replacement. Its not hard to find some mediocre player that will probably play a total of 60 minutes, by the time Buck returns..... The real problem comes next year when a CB will be a must.
