Arturo Vidal

[Inter7]

we are increasingly linked with him and he has had a great year i think we should definitely sign him

 

[Pajo]

Closed, not yet any reliable source. Discuss in the midfielders rumours thread.

GDS and other numerous outlets reporting Vidal has said yes to Inter and agreed personal terms of 7 million a year. Suning preparing a 50 million offer to Bayern within the next 48 hours. It's happening :slick::slick::slick:


Fuck you Ancelotti, you have no say biatch

 

[CafeCordoba]

Hmm, I think we keep this open since Ancelotti said he told Sabatini and Ausilio to drop it. So there's undirect confession that we've actually been there.

edit. If other mods have different idea and view, feel free to close this. Closing these threads is always about keeping the discussion in one place until the rumor is so strong that we can discuss it separately.

50m for a 30 year old. He better be worth it

 

[ScottishInterista]

He'll be worth it now, in two or so years probably not

In 2 years he will be 32, still good enough age to play at high level especially for a player like Vidal who is so versatile he can play various roles in midfield.

If he is available then it's simple, just get him and enjoy his game.

ok, i'll go out on a limb here: I think he will come. reason number 1, the most important: somehow, i'm sure as hell that after signing james rodriguez bayern want to sell a costly 30 y.o. player with a screw loose.

second reason: after a summer of mediocrity, Suning will want to buy the biggest thing available and that's vidal. they really need it, for their image and because otherwise people won't buy Inter stuff.

only actual obstacle: ancelotti not wanting to reinforce milan's rivals (and i'm not kidding here, i think he seriously considers these things).

but bayern's best interest will prevail. or at least that's my prediction.

how has he a 'screw loose'? you should be grateful a player of his stature even agrees to come to this shitshow. even borja valero was crying on the way over. - if he arrives, then you might be right and he lost a screw

If Vidal is allowed to come (big if though), with the price 50m, I would say DO IT. It will cause a domino effect. Who wouldn't want to play with a world class teammate? Keita, Schick will agree our offer in 1 second for example. With Vidal, we have the strongest midfielder in Italy (even more than Rube). Vidal, Vecino, Gags, Kondo, Valero.

As a consequence, a world-class player will also boost income revenue. More attendance to the stadium, more jersey sales, more marketing values...and most important: Champions League.

But I could not see it comes true tbh. Sadly, Ancelotti is the worst person we have to deal with when asking for a player. He hates Inter apparently. No other one has told explicitly to the media that "I would never coach Inter because I am a Milanista" like him.

Even when Rummenigge pushes for the deal, all Carlo has to do is simply answering "I need him to implement my tactics".

It would be fantastic business for Bayern for sure. They bought him for 37m€ and if they sell him for around 50m€ after him being two years older at 30y. Brilliant. But not sure if it's about money for Bayern, they are filthy rich.

About Ancelotti, surely he's not blocking it to not reinforce Inter but because he wants Vidal in his squad.

 

[Il Drago]

I would love Vidal but i can't see that happening. I think the player wants to join us and that's why Ancelotti had to say twice in two days Vidal isn't going anywhere. If Vidal gets sold it will look like Ancelotti doesn't have the support of the board and i don't think anyone at Bayern want that. If we're willing to spend 50m on a midfielder why don't we go after Fabinho? He hasn't been linked with any team recently and he would probably be available for 40-45. Though after selling Mendy for 55m Monaco could have crazy demands for him.

 

[IRR26]

Vidal better be at the top of his game to be worth signed for 50 million at the age of 30. He will boost our quality that I am sure of but how much and how many years (considering his high salary).

I think Ancelotti will have very little to say if Bayern thinks Vidal should be sold.

 

[Shaun]

It would be nice to sign such as top player, but at the same time I don't think he's the type of player who will maintain his level well into his 30's given so much of his game relies on his physical abilities. If he gives us two CL spots the next two years then his signing will probably have worked out though

He has high work rate but also his passing is very good, so can see him playing well into his 30s.

 

[ElDuccio]

Fuck you Ancelotti, hopefully he will make a bad season and Bayern will loose all important games in CL.

 

[ElDiego22]

This is a coup. Vidal is up there with the best midfielders in the world and getting him will improved our Scudetti chance.

 

[Ronaldo]

Normally these types of deals are not the ones I agree with specially for such a high transfer fee and wages. I mean, two years ago Bayern got him for 37 million. Now he is two years older and his price is 50 million?!

But I know that if we don't get Vidal it's going to be someone probably older and worse. If Vidal is the best player this management is able to get then Vidal it is.

P.S. some people are overhyping Vidal big time. I think you are going to be disappointed. He is good but I won't say he is one of the best in the world. Also, he is sure declining.

 

[Bluenine]

He'll be worth it now, in two or so years probably not

A player of his quality can help us qualify for the CL. €50m well spent, even if he has only 2 good years.

But I cannot see Bayern letting him go.
