yeah, agree the inflated price is the big catch. i think the angle we’re shooting for is that Chelsea have to sell, and there aren’t a lot of clubs whose offers we couldn’t match. no one in Germany/France/Spain is paying 50m for him, so that leaves United (maybe?), City (no way), Newcastle (maybe?), Spurs (lol), and Liverpool (no way) as realistic competitors for the purchase.
