Transfer Rumour Axel Witsel

[Professor Toffee]

The absence of any mention of us in the above article is very telling. Witsel knows that Juve want him and he will wait for them.

If we duck out then Juve will get him on the cheap , if we stay in we will probably get him on deadline day unless Juve meet our offer.

I can see him staying at Zenit if the Juve deal doesn't happen.

same but it's just a case of wait and see I think. Another one that could well drag on all the way to deadline day.

I think Witsel will stay if he has assurances from Juve they'll come in for him next year.

if Juve up their bid to Zenit, he'll sign for them this summer.

If neither of the above happen he'll happily come to us.

or... he stays at Zenit, and we smash the first 4 months of the season, sitting top in Jan......all of a sudden we are a different proposition!!

Think we will still get him

Even though i'd have rather have gone for Strootman anyways as believe he is a much better player than WItsel (injuries are a concern but even so would have taken the gamble)

Juve, flush with the Pogba money, will up their bid for him.

I just wish this whole Pogba to Man Utd nonsense would just hurry up and resolve itself.

The pogba money has been spent tho. There is no pogba money.

The Pogba money doesn't even balance the books for what they have spent already this summer mate...

Where's the Pogba money, Gulli?

Where's the Pogba money, Gulli?

Higuain. £76m
Pjanic £27m
Pjaca £19m
Lemina £8m

 

[leelead]

Juve linked with Luiz Gustavo now, just wish they would hurry up and sign someone (even if it is Witsel) just to put an end to this saga either way.

tell you what id have him like. however he sits in front of the back 4, we already have gueye mccarthy besic barry gibson doing this.

Higuain. £76m
Pjanic £27m
Pjaca £19m
Lemina £8m

Pjaca was £19m?! Crikey. Seems a bit steep for someone from Dynamo Zagreb. He did look good in the euros though.

They have loads of money, not just Pogba cash. They sell Pogba they are at around zero net spend.

 

[Petit]

If Pogba goes to utd we might get Mata. If he stays at Juve we might get Witsel. Win win.

 

[Nymzee]

Higuain is only costing them half his fee this summer btw lads so technically they haven't spent quite as much as quoted.

 

[Pabbers]

Witsel has agreed a contract with juve, now as @theesk has said, its through a 3rd party intermediary. This is because Juve have not yet agreed a fee with zenit so permission has not been given to talk directly.

Mata of time now
