2021/2022 Goalkeepers Rumours Thread

[nelsonrivas2011]

Messi sucks, Courtois sucks, Falcao rules. Sounds legit.

More like Courtois sucks, Ospina rules

 

[crzdcolombian]

I'd say Oblak is #1 mainly due to his consistency last 5 years, not many keepers in recent memory have managed to maintain such a high-level for so long.

Neuer would be #2 then Courtois #3.

I don’t know I don’t rate Courtois that highly. He was way better before Real.

Di Marzio said last night Inter have booked the signing of Onana for a while.

Onana himself said he could even extend (with a release clause) but Ajax blocked the negotiations at some point. I wouldn't count on this "booking" yet even though pre-agreement can be signed in a few months. It's a perfect opportunity for Onana as there are rarely such open spots in big clubs like now.

I don't see many open spots for him at top clubs. Real have Courtois. Barcelona have Ter Stegen. Atletico have Oblak. City have Ederson. Liverpool have Alisson. I don't see a point of Chelsea getting Onana when they have Mendy. Man Utd have De Gea and Henderson, who's highly rated in England. PSG have Keylor Navas and Donnarumma. Neuer is going to start for Bayern at least for the next two seasons and he hasn't shown signs of decline. Inter are one of the few top clubs that could offer him a starting spot. Only Juventus could pose a serious threat as Szczesny makes many mistakes lately but so far there are no rumours linking them with Onana.

 

[CafeCordoba]

Yeah. I think Juve is out of question also as Szczesny has huge salary and I doubt they can dump him anywhere.

Don't forget Arsenal

Didn't they spend big on a young English GK?

Correct, but there is no logic to thinking like a Gunner

What better keeper?

Dollarumma on loan with option to buy with 50% of his salary payed by P$G

“In the summer, there was a chance to go to play in France. I spoke with Lyon and Nice, but we did not find an agreement,” the Cameroon international told De Telegraaf.

When asked whether he would sign a contract extension with Ajax with a release clause that is not too high, he replied: “Everything is negotiable, I’m still open to the hypothesis of a new contract.” - Onana

He was probably advised to say things like this, so it doesn`t seem like we already have an agreement in place with him. We probably do have a verbal agreement, which will be signed in January.

For me this rumour is closed topic, basically a done deal in my book. There is no better keeper for this cost on the market while there is no better club for Onana - no brainer. Even Romano confirmed it, and it`s only due to regulations we cannot announce him already. Good thing is that he can start learning Italian early.


Marotta was asked about reports that Inter are in talks with Ajax goalkeeper Onana, who will be a free agent at the end of the season and has also been linked with Arsenal.

“Even if the market is currently closed, we know that director of sport Piero Ausilio is active and monitoring all the opportunities that the market offers,” Marotta told DAZN.

“He is an interesting goalkeeper, but let’s not forget we have an excellent shot-stopper already and we’re holding on tight to him.”

Even Beppe did not deny Onana is on his way.

It's their best buy since Aubameyang

Inter are set to officially announce the signing of Ajax goalkeeper Andre Onana for next season in February.

This according to today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, who report that the agreement is in place with the Cameroonian, and that it will be made official as soon as it is possible to do so.

Inter have been strongly linked to Onana for several months, with discussions ongoing to bring the 25-year-old to the Giuseppe Meazza on a free transfer when his current deal with the Dutch champions expires at the end of June 2022.

The club have an agreement with the player worth a net of €3 million per season, and will make the announcement once the January transfer window has closed.

 

[brehme1989]

Not a bad deal but I'm not sure if he's the one.
He's gonna give us more Frey vibes than Peruzzi vibes.

Am I reading that they aren't going to announce it incase someone comes in and changes his mind, puts an actual January bid in and pays him more etc?

Just, if its done, confirm it.... Jan 1st.

 

[CafeCordoba]

I think it's just a pre-contract which is signed in January. Also usually Inter do not announce these deals until July. But let's see what happens now.

 

[Stefan]

Can't confirm it till 1 Feb. There are transfer rules regarding signing free transfers.

But it's pretty much done.

Why didn't we go for Romero as a 2nd/3rd choice keeper, surely we could afford him?

Radu didn't want to leave.

The biggest problem with having a goalkeeper from Africa is the absence that will happen. So the question is, are we open to have an okay gk in goal for like 1 month?
