rumor Atletico, Everton offering 30-35 million for Julian Alvarez

I mean if we stop trying to drop 7-10 million on 4-5 random players and get him that would be awesome.

So when the club is finally trying to do the longer-term thinking, fans are asking for the short-term impact.

That’s great if you have money and a wage budget for a striker of this calibre, however we have neither… ffs we just lost a player to Juve because we didn’t want to spend an additional 3m

Cabal is a no body. Alvarez can potentially bench Thuram and has benched Lautaro on the Argentinan National team. Splashing our whole budget on him is worth doing. Then pray to go De Vrij, Acerbi are good enough till next season. Then find their replacements.

In Cabal, Tessman, Martinez we were rumored to drop more than what offers for Alvarez are.

We don't have a 35m budget.

I don't think it's necessarily about money. If he wanted to make himself available, some arabian team would probably pick him up for double the salary he has in inter.

I suspect it's the desire to prove himself on a higher level that really fuels him. He basically wasted his younger years being slightly above mediocre, and now he wants to prove he can operate on the highest level, but the problem is it's too late for that, his body ain't the same...

Exactly, he even played in China and was well payed to do so. It’s not about the Monet it’s about respect. His legacy is more important to him now.

Would Alvarez - Martinez actually work? I'd rather have a Dybala-type of player to complement Thuram or Lautaro.

You need to be bloody realistic we don’t have the money unless we sell.

Also I doubt he actually work with Martinez that’s why the as good as never play alongside each other at the NT

This isn’t some FM game

Yeah and based on reports Inzaghi wants different forward from what we have now ie. not pure CF like Alvarez.

Alvarez is not a pure CF. And he's not leaving for 35m. He's out of our reach.

Argentina wanted to play Messi and Di Maria. They needed a player with a higher work rate that is why Alvarez starts. When Messi stops playing it will be Alvarez - Lautaro up top. (Di Maria retired)

they mostly played 4231, Alvarez and Lautaro together just seems weird

Please drop this Gudmunson idea. A disaster waiting to happen with his pending charge and the fact we cannot spend that much for a striker who’d be FOURTH option.

 

[Meysam]

I'm sick of Gudmunson news. Waiting for an interesting transfer news for this summer

You're going to get disappointed. The squad is almost ready. Gudmundsson is the big fish we go for if anything if it's financially possible.

 

[nurko]

I really doubt we are getting another forward unless we magically sell both Correa and Arnautovic and Carboni leaves on loan.

And isn’t found guilty for sexual assault, as it’s unlikely to be concluded before the market ends, I’ll say it’s rather unlikely scenario that Inter get him.

And to continue this, the court case looming in October makes it pretty hard to commit to the player.

Edit. Oh Gal just mentioned this.

Marotta is slick. He's downplaying interest in gudmundsson while trying to get a rape discount. He really is a great fit; can shoot, pass, dribble 1v1 and pick up the ball in the middle. These characteristics are important after sanchez exit as we have no other similar profile.
