Seems to be right, Leao is winger, not striker or wingback and he didn’t want that.

Biasin was in the mood to talk about the past tonight. He said Inter had booked Leao for few millions but Conte had rejected him
probably our scouts didn't do their job well

It appears, that there are four options for players, Real, P$G, EPL and the Arab league.

They know Italian clubs are broke and can offer an unlimited amount of sport washing money. Tonali, much like Barella, isn’t likely to leave Italy and his childhood club for Newcastle however.

Dude, if I was a sporting director of a big (or at least well-funded) club like the EPL teams, I would make it a fucking instituted business strategy to target Inter like a hawk:

- They have some good players
- they are fucking destitute in the extreme
- and they are owned and managed by absolute fucking idiots

What an unreal opportunity to sign some good players on unbelievable deals.

With the crazy prices in England (Rice, Caicedo), there are some potential good deals from Serie A, given the financial situations of a lot of teams in Italy. A lot of English teams though believe in "Premier League" proven so they don't seem to go for players from Italy as much. I was surprised when Arsenal went for Kiwior.

All teams prefer the domestic market over the international one. It's just in England that the EPL tax has become so crazy that teams are forced to look around. How much Italy has trashed on the 'English superiority' lately also doesnt help (Euro final and 4 English - Italian match ups in CL this year where the English only had the upper hand in Chelsea vs Milan). EPL teams probably start to realize their players are not all that superior and opportunities are there in the Italian market.

they sell Tonali and swoop in to buy Frattesi.
De Ligt-Bremer vol. 2. Maybe that's why we're rushing to sell Brozovic.

Yep, 60m for Tonali is way too good of a deal for Milan. Tonali is not better than readily available options on the market e.g. SMS and Frattesi. For 60m they can have a huge upgrade over both Krunic and Tonali and I dont like that.

Tonali wouldn't start in any top team of Europe. And that amount of money rumored for his transfer is ridiculous.

Confirmation from Milanista Longo. This is getting interesting.


Just imagine the meltdown of Milanisti if "Milanista" Tonali goes to Newcastle while "Cagliari fan" Barella doesn't even consider the offer

This feels exactly the same as when they fired Maldini, their tears will be tasty for a while, but deep down you know they're making the righr decisions. Maldini needed to go and Tonali is not worth anywhere close to this.
