Third bid from Chelsea has gone in for John Stones on Monday, agents were due at the club on Wednesday/Thursday this week, has also been leaked that there is a matching bid to their 34 million (plus add ons). Putting 2 and 2 together I can only assume that is from ManUre. Both deals have an amount up front the rest on the drip (Chelsea bid doesn't effect the Lukuku deal/payments)
There has been no statement from Elstone that Stones isn't for sale only that the previous bids were not accepted.
Have been up to PNG for a week so difficult to get internet, this was sent Tuesday morning Oz time
Eh? Think I'm a bit punch-drunk from work and I'm still more bothered by your avatar than your report.
Cheers for sharing.
