Knew what your response would be as soon as I saw the alert tbf

I rather have him leaving to the club with the highest bid. Prefer to be Chelsea. The more they buy, the more they will get in trouble once the CL money does not flow in their direction anymore. Balogun will be our Havertz kind of deal. I like them to have the feeling of getting robbed.

Agree here. If we do not plan to use him, sell him to the highest bidder. Only two teams I wouldn’t sell him to, Sp**s or United, because of the risk of hearing them brag about winning a match against us with him. But Chelsea? So what really.

I’d ask about why Arteta does not think he is good enough to challenge an injured Jesus and Nketiah the backup, but it seems Arteta is already fixated on not using him… and we know how that goes.

Maybe Arteta thinks there is little point in playing him as he doesn't want to stay.

You only have to look at what happened with timber to see how quickly things can change in football.

You wrap him in cotton wool until a deal is done.

Lets hope something close to 45M€.

£30m and add ons according to @OnlyOne 5 mins ago.

Monaco seems a good move for Balogun. We need a sell-on clause. Could see him getting a big money transfer in a few seasons.

Very good stuff getting this done this week.

Attack that last week of the window with a spoon and fork.

Monaco would be perfect, much rather there than see him go to Chelsea or Sp**s,even if it means a lower fee. Sell on clause is vital though. 40M and 25% would be decent

£40m would be more than decent from a non prem team. Not sure we will get 25% sell on at that amount though? If we do that is a good deal for us imho.

I would rather see him in PL as I would be more likely to watch him with a PL squad.

 

[OnlyOne]

Deal agreed, £40M + f*ck all.

Fair enough. More realistic than the £50m they were hoping to get given the interest.

 

[NieThePiet]

Probably the best we can get, when no English Club is seriously interested.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Acceptable deal it was always difficult to reach 50M euros. if we have good sell on clause with 45M euros it'll be good deal.

that raise our sales to 80M pounds

 

[field442]

Be interesting to see if there's any sell-on or buyback.

 

[Thrice]

€45m for a player that didn't even play a handful of league games for us is pretty crazy if you think about it.

 

[Sanchez11]

Deal agreed, £40M + f*ck all.

Good

 

[GoonerJeeves]

That'll do. I take it for granted that there is a sell-on clause.
