Thomas Partey

[OnlyOne]

Interestingly Soumare wouldn't count towards the Non HG quota as he only turned 21 in February.

If we can't get rid of the desired players I can see us going for Aouar and Soumare over Aouar and Partey.

Doubt it, Lille reject a 36m bid from Newcastle this summer, they may want in and around 40m when Partey is only 44m, makes no sense.

Our relationship with Lille is very good at the moment but they already rejected 35M from Newcastle so that's mean we'll have to pay at least 40M to buy him and Soumare is not a proven quality yet and still 21 years old could be a risk.

 

[HairSprayGooners]

Lille rejected a 35m euro bid that was including add ons. So the bid could've been a lot lower than just 35m euro. Maybe 25m + 10m add ons.

We would be able to get him for £30M outright I reckon. Just an option.

Think we get Partey the moment Torreira is gone

I was thinking Martinez + Torreira gets us Aouar. Then if we manage to Bellerin or AMN that gets us Partey.

I don’t think we’ll sell either of them. We’d be reluctant and btw they’re also HG so selling them wouldn’t free up space for new non HGs

I also don't think we will sell either

Ah yeah forgot about the HG thing. Think this is the first time it’s had a big impact on our transfer business.

I think we'll leave partey late, if we go for him at all.

How many years does he have on his contact? We could go over his rc value if Atleti were willing to negociate installments for said larger fee.

Honestly tho, I hope the Roca deal somehow falls through and we activate the rc at the last possible second.

A transfer like the Tierney one wouldn't surprise me.

The rumours are started already such a long time and the Tier 1 sources are still confirming our interest every time. And he is pretty easy to get, because he wants to join us and we just have to pay the release clause.

We will wait until the last days of the transfer window and we will see, how much money we have left and how much we need him (players need to be sold, Aouar?, alternatives).

 

[Manberg]

On twitter I read a suggestion that we could make a bid for Partey and let Atletico know that if they refuse it then we would pay the release clause on the last day of the transfer window giving them no time to find a replacement.

What do you guys think?

It sounds dexterous, I like it.

It won't work either pay his release clause or he stay also Partey not pushing for leave so A.Madrid not panicking.

 

[RunTheTrap]

Worst case scenario I can see us not registering Özil, Sokratis or Elneny if we are unable to move them on. Therefore, this would allow us to sign Partey as a replacement to fill that non-HG quota.

 

[Lazaq]

If it's true we're bidding beyond €40m for Auoar, is it at all financially reasonable that we could do a deal for Partey as well? Or is it completely dependent on numerous sales, á la Sokratis, Guendouzi, Elneny etc.?

 

[DanDare]

Really don't think we're in for him anymore

£45m up front and £200k a week.

We capable of doing it but we need to make space for Partey first and have 50m to give it in cash to A.Madrid. It's very possible but complicated

Seeing as we need to deposit the full amount of the release clause, it's a harder deal, since there wouldn't be any structuring between the clubs.

I think the 200k a week are a bit of a strange report. That's close to Auba territory.

Isn't he on like 40-50k? Can't see him wanting to 4x that, specially in this climate.
