Mateo Kovačić

[CafeCordoba]

I am ok with Kovacic if he's coming to compete with Brozovic but certainly not if he's going to be our big midfield signing.

Yes, totally fine with Kovacic if he's coming as a squad player, not a big starter signing to midfield.

Loan with around £35-40 Mil option would be ideal

yeah, if Kovačić is meant to give Brozović a rest here and there, then I'm all up for it, especially with the loan + option

He'd be great in a 3-5-2 and if the price is good he is a great signing.

Kovacic would make Barella look like a great signing...

Perez can fuck off with that 60 mil evaluation. Give them Gabigol for Kovacic.

 

[A.l.i]

I wouldn’t have signed for Kova and Barella to be our midfield signings before the summer, thats’s for sure.

 

[Raul Duke]

At best, he’ll be a Joao Mario replacement: a technical squad midfielder without any end product or a defined role.

When he was deployed as a LCM by mazzarri he made some decisive passes. The book isnt closed on kovacic. I'm appreciating mazzari mastery years after his exit.

At least you are starting to realize it, we still have thick headed members who don’t want to admit they were wrong about Mazzarri.

Yes.

50 mil is way too much for the most talented alibi player..

RM are out of their minds if they want 60m, but at least Kova got proper schooling at London and Madrid. You know, top private universities are expensive as well.

I guess it all depends on the amount to make the move permanent. Let`s make sure we are not agreeing a random fee just to have the player for 1 season - in case he fits, we should be able to buy him (Rafinha/Cancelo comes into mind).

Continuing reports suggest that he is close to a return. I fuckin love it

Just curious... has there ever been an example of a player leaving a club only to return a couple of years later and be better than his first time?

Crespo is one I can think of.

 

[Kakaroto]

Adriano.

We dont need him to be better.

Exactly. He can be like back then and he's still better than Joao Mario (or Valero, as a general comparison, not position-wise comparison).
