it makes me remember Lautaro's interview, he said something like coach might come and go but he would stay at Inter longer, then we have quickly resolved drama and Lukaku cried, maybe players know something up

i think they already knew when that picture was shot when zhang jr was in the middle of them talking and they looked pretty sad.
after that, conte didn't give anymore game interviews.

Yeah, I feel like his form would dip the most with a new coach.

If we can offload Lukaku for something like 90mil, we still might come out of this okay. Provided we appoint a sensible coach and reinvest that money wisely in at least 2 new attacking players.
Remember that Stevie asks from this market that we end up +80 on balance sheet, so, even if we sell RL for 90 we can only invest 10 mil in this gawd damn window

If the rumours are correct, then Zhang wants "capital gains" of 80m. Which is plusvalenza. Lukaku is still 48m in our books, or thereabouts. So selling him for 90m will only give us 42m capital gains. We will need to sell at least 1 more player.

Players like Martinez, De Vrij or Bastoni have the most plusvalenza potential.

80m in money, not book entry.

Otherwise we'd "sell" Primavera kids left and right until the end of June like Ausilio magic used to work and got us 50m out of thin air.

Yeah, apparently this time we want the real money. That's why Lukaku is the best choice since he fetches the most money. Yeah, we need to pay United tens of millions but those payments are divided over the years to 2023. Lukaku is also the biggest earner of this team so removing his salary will help in that salary budget reduction task too.

Agreed. Plus partnering him with Son would be lethal.

Reguillon would be a good wingback for Conte. Don't know who would be best for right wing tho

Why is there no concrete rumour about his leaving yet?

I doubt he wants to leave, he has everyone respect here. And if he doesn't want to leave it doesn't matter if Chelsea offers 200 millions

Probably because the two interested clubs in him are playing the CL final in two days and his favorite coach's next club is still undecided.

We should entertain no offers for him until after the Euro's. He's bound to explode at that tournament.

he gets injured and his cost goes down.

Teams know we are broke. And only a few teams can afford him.

If fking Kane is 150 million. we should at least try to get over 100 million for him or a bunch of players + what we paid

This. Theres likely to only be one 100m signing this summer and it'll be Kane. Madrid might come for Lukaku but I doubt it.

Has he been posting anything on his social media to give us any hints of his plans/future? I don't follow him but even if he usually does post regularly and now he's not that could be telling.

I hate the fact that I'm asking about it to have an idea.
