Summer 2016 Transfer Rumour Thread

[Jatz]

Doubt it. We've fleeced you before. We would hold out and do it again. It's 120k not 140 and 120k to Chelsea is like a drop in the ocean.

Bit different this time. I doubt they're as desperate for Benteke as what they were Torres.

Fair enough, good luck trying to get rid of him without taking a hit. I doubt you'll be fleecing anyone and will just have to wear it.

Yeah, we learned a very valuable leason with Torres. Forced a fair bit of change on the club with how we do business.

I guess you could say Aston Villa fleeced Liverpool.

You could. Although you might upset a few around here if you did

 

[RossFC]

Buying Benteke off them pretty much got them relegated.

 

[chef]

Conte might want to bring over an Italian Striker who he's had success with before instead though I'd imagine.

Llorente were his strikers at Juve weren't they? I doubt they'd be of any interest.

But i have seen us linked to Zaza, not sure if he was at Juve when Conte was there but he'd have a bit to do with him for Italy.

I think they were going down either way tbh. That squad is shite.

The thing is, is that Benteke is actually a brilliant player, not worth 32.5 million but id say 20-25.

Im sure we will get around 25 for him in the summer so the hit wont be that large. He will leave and bang in goals for someone else. But it just doesnt work at Liverpool and under Klopp.

No idea if Chelsea would fork out 25 for him. West Ham surely wont.

Who do you think is paying 25 for him? Assuming Chelsea aren't, who then?

Think you're being a bit optimistic there. His wage is also a massive issue tbh.

 

[SM]

No player who is currently being frozen out by their manager goes for 20+, he'll go at a cut price and Liverpool will take a massive hit on him. Klopp has made it clear he doesn't want him, so why would anyone pay over the odds when they know Liverpool want rid just to get his wages off the books?

No idea but 25 million isnt a huge sum of money like it was 5-6 years ago and with the new TV deal, plenty of clubs will be splashing cash and breaking club transfer records.

20 million minimum but I think we can get 25 for him. If we even sell him at all, which we might not.

Weren't you just saying that the days of big fees are over? Or was that WC2022, I lose track.

No one is wasting 25m on Benteke.

You could probably get between 20-25 mil. Still think wages are an issue then though.

How long is his contract?

5 years lol.

No idea what you're talking about. The days of the big fee's are just beginning as more and more money pours into football.

I think it's funny you think 25m is a waste on Benteke too. He's a quality footballer who will score plenty of goals in a team that plays and caters to him. He simply doesnt work at Liverpool which all LFC fans knew would happen before we bought him.

I guess we will see in the summer. 20 will be easy to get for Tekkers. He wont be shy of suitors come the summer.

Ask WorldCup2022OZ about that then.

I agree with you. I can't see them going to a club in England because the days of ridiculous fees are over and don't work (Torres, Sterling, Benteke good examples ).

Can only see them leaving if the likes of Bayern / Barca / Real / PSG are interested.

So um Balotelli, you gunna make a profit there?

You say that but you don't seem sure of who'd actually go in for him?

 

[SM]

There'll be plenty of suitors. I'm sure Stoke, Swansea, Everton, West Brom, etc. will be interested at about 10m if he's willing to cut his wages.

Who?

West Ham? Stoke?

We've had this conversation before in the other transfer thread, it will be very tough getting him off your books

 

[Gosha]

Wonder where Hazard will end up.

Real Madrid I hope.

 

[chef]

So um Balotelli, you gunna make a profit there?

Yeah, like Mario Liverpools best option will probably be a loan out with the club paying a portion of his huge salary.

 

[chef]

Real Madrid I hope.

It'll be Real or Chelsea for Hazard next season.

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Reports saying mends wants James Rodriguez to leave madrid.

United is what Mendes wants him to go to ( I wonder why)

Also rumors of Kroos, Ibra, Saul and Renarto Sanches remain open
