2017/2018 Defenders Rumours Thread

[Ronaldo]

I don't think Bereszynski would cost less than 25 million. While he is a good player, it's my understanding that he is more of a FB than a wingback.

Why would we get him when we have DDA?

According to Record, there are advanced negotiations between Sporting and Inter over Piccini. Inter have made an official offer of 15m+5m bonuses for the Italian defender.

Even in YouTube he seems to be shit! Dambrosio is Maicon compare to him! It is a typical inter move wasting money on another random fullback. If you can't buy cancelo don't waste our little budget like Dalbert.

never heard of him

never heard of him

i had to googled him. In Serie he played for fiorentina and livorno some matches, after he went to Betis. :/

 

[Maslany]

Apparently he was a Juventus target along with Darmian. Arsenal's too.

 

[Ronaldo]

I'm sure Juve are pissed we stole the player they wanted...

 

[Linege]

never heard of him

same

Here's hoping that we sign Francesca Piccinini in a package deal with Piccini.

 

[M.Adnan]

Acutually Piccini seems to me like an upgrade to D'Ambrosio, but he's not Cancelo which is the main point. We're in the CL so we have to get the best players, not a mid-way between D'Ambrosio and Cancelo.

 

[CafeCordoba]

We can get Cancelo in July, not now. If he's gone by then, there's nothing we can do. So get over it already?

 

[Il Drago]

Bereszynski as well. I have a very bad feeling Ausilio will go for him now that Cancelo is gone.

Man Utd want 20m for Darmian. 12m are what Juve are offering but they have no agreement with Man Utd. Anyway , i am totally convinced our new RB will be Bereszynski in a swap deal with Eder. I hope i am wrong .

Eder-Bereszynski exchange?
By Football Italia staff

Inter could reunite Sampdoria defender Bartosz Bereszynski with Milan Skriniar, sending Eder to Marassi.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, there are plans to strike another deal between the two clubs.

Last summer, Skriniar was snapped up for €23m plus €2m in bonuses, but his value has more than doubled in 12 months.

Now he may well be reunited with his old Samp teammate Bereszynski in central defence.

The 25-year-old Poland international formed an excellent partnership with Skriniar and is also ready for the step up.

As part of the deal, Inter could send striker Eder to Sampdoria, a return to the club he left for €12m in January 2016.

Inter rebuffed for Piccini
By Football Italia staff

Inter saw their initial €8m plus bonuses proposal for full-back Cristiano Piccini rejected by Sporting CP, according to A Bola.

The Nerazzurri seemingly put forward an offer worth €8m, with an additional €4m in various performance-related bonuses.

However, Sporting turned it down and are holding out for more money.

Piccini has also been linked with Roma over the last week and is under contract in Lisbon until 2022.

He has a release clause worth €45m in his contract and came up through the Fiorentina youth academy.

 

[Linege]

bereszynski, another dambrosio
we got asamoha, a famous backpasser now going for for another fodder

 

[hitmax]

the names we have been linked after cancelo proves that he is worth 35m price tag. there isn't many good fb in today market. i hope i dont see him in serie a at least.

 

[Jnr]

Maybe Florenzi, Spallo likes him, he is expiring in 2019 and said no to new shitty contract offer. He wants 3.5-4M , but Roma is probably offering half of that. Monchi definitely doesnt want to lose him for free in Jan19. Could cost twice less than Cancelo.

I think you may be underrating D'ambrosio like a lot of posters here do, he is a decent RB. Not good at LB specially going froward, but at his natural position he does a decent job. Plus is he well settled into Inter and defensively decent. I think someone like Piccini will be vice-Dumbo, or at best a rotation option. Looking at the number of games we will play next season and Asamoah's fitness history, we need a top RB. Then Dumbo can help rotate both the RB and Asamoah.

Piccini seems like the typical waste Inter usually do with fullbacks every summer. Our fullback strategy is to flush about 10+ million down the toilet every summer.

 

[Trininerazzuri]

Zappacosta could be on the cards according to reports..he and vecino shares the same agent..the deal could be a loan with 20-25 m option to buy. Go for it!!! I wonder if they still want candreva???

I am Sarri to inform you that Conte no longer calls the shots there

EDIT: I would like to apologise for this poor pun. Late night, too much drinking, too little sleep :yuno:

 

[MusicalMafia]

I remember reading though that Sarri would like Vecino as well. Frankly, I am a little bit disappointed in this guy so wouldn't mind a swap (+some cash for us I guess) for Zappacosta. Vecino is behind Gags, Brzozo, hopefully Rafinha, maybe even Valero and if we get Barella or Dembele he would be fairly useless.

 

[thoriq_r9]

Hardly watched any Chelsea game last season. So, how did Zappacosta fare in top-tier football? Did he look out of his depth? Or barely got a chance at all.
