✍️ OFFICIAL Lucas Torreira (Out)

[roz]

Don't see anything wrong with attempting to shift some of the players we don't want to them to reduce cash outlay and get a player we do want. You don't ask, you don't get

As someone rightly said before, Atletico hold all the cards here.

We can try but any team with an ounce of sense will realise they hold all the cards whilst we’re holding a pair of gone off kippers. Questionable strategy from us once again wasting our window chasing an unobtainable player.

Yep, the order of preference would broadly be:

1) Loan with obligation
2) Loan without obligation
3) Loan with option

3 should be just loan
A loan with option is worse than a straight out loan for us.

Agreed. A loan without obligation is essentially just a 'Loan'.

 

[HairSprayGooners]

Depends. If you negotiate a very high initial loan fee and then have an option to buy you're covering yourself.

Torreira would thrive at Atletico.

Edu needs to answer some serious questions if we agree to loan Torreira to Atletico without an obligation to buy and fail to sign Partey

Interviewer: Serious question, why did you loan Torreira to Atletico?

Edu: Because he accepted only Atletico as a destination, he has 3 years in contract and we have way too big squad.

Interviewer: Ok.

Looks like €7m loan fee with €25m obligation to buy, so €32m total. Great deal for a player who doesnt fit in with Artetaball.

 

[tcahill]

Echo what others are saying, that a straight loan is worse than a loan with an option. The odds are pretty high of Torreira having a good season under Simeone, he's a very good player just not suited to Artetaball. If there's a lowball option to buy we might end up being fleeced.

We never know good playtime in la Liga might turn him back into 18/19 Torreira.

As I said him before, it's arsenal and you never ever trust this team for signings. Until I see them in arsenal shirt I assume nothing will be done. That's the arsenal way.

No it isn't. It's a loan with an option to buy

Lol at stating it as fact, are you Edu?
Hilarious how fans always think they know what's going on behind the scenes just based on reports from people who are mostly just guessing themselves.

it's the new maxim - don't believe anything until you see it on Twitter

Safe to say you’re really optimistic

 

[HairSprayGooners]

AS saying we want an obligation to buy at £21M but Atletico just want an option. Can see a compromise being reached.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

I like that even when desperately need to get of them move on asap
