Guess that's where we are on the Toti competition list

The "reportedly interested" often = not actually interested

 

[prawnking]

True; but left-footed, versatile and HG means I wouldn't be surprised if there was some interest from us preceding VP

I like him - good player & would do well here. Won’t get people excited because his names “Lloyd”, obviously.

They’ve only just triggered his clause to sign him permanently (was €17.5m) and he played a fair bit for them last season so I’d say it’s a complete non-starter of a story, unfortunately.

Who was that Watford full back, Lloyd something? Had a face like it was being reflected on the back of a spoon.

Lloyd Doyley?

The permanent signing bit doesnt mean much as they had to sign him whether they wanted to or not after his loan spell.

Probably is a non starter for us but would suggest either the club or player is putting the story out there as they want to move on.

Obligation to buy if certain conditions met I think. Juve could potentially flip for a profit. He could play Left centre half or wingback. Toti version 2 for whom we don’t have any like for like cover.

Are we counting this as a rejection? Or just that we moved on to (not getting) other targets?

Was there a proper link to him or just the Bild story?

 

[prawnking]

Just Bild I think, but we all got excited with the link a couple of weeks ago when we still thought we might be signing some players

What do they think they are playing at, having a replacement lined up for an outgoing player?

Unless they do an Afobe.

That's the one!
