    Apparently Liepzig want over 80m euros for Sesko and are not budging on that.

    That is too much for 'potential'

    The more this goes on the less I like the sound of it.

    We'll probably end up with Jamie Vardy in a last minute deal

    80 million euros is about 67 million (which is the price I’ve heard stated for some considerable time)

    I don’t think you’ll find a striker with any reasonably good profile for much less than that anyway. They are a prime commodity.

    And that's fine, but if it starts going higher then it does start to become questionable.

    Gyokeres is still a little 'cheaper' I think, TransferMkt says 75m euros

    Yes the “gentleman’s agreement” understanding he has with Sporting, as opposed to his minimum release fee of 100 million euros

    Looks like United have made an official approach, my feeling on that (which I know isn’t the popular one on here) is that they are welcome to him

    I could be wrong and he could be a revelation in the premier league. But given his goal output (in the Portuguese league) there doesn’t seem to be many takers

    Chelsea seemingly trying to hijack Sesko deal now.

    Good thing we are taking our time with our business

    So you’re both worried that we are paying too much and worried that we aren’t doing things more quickly (presumably to negotiate a price that is reasonable) because of another club swooping in?.

    I do find it quite interesting how so many big clubs need (or needed last summer) a striker seems to have passed on him. The fee, comparatively, isn't outrageous (that in itself is insane), you'd think his wage demands wouldn't be mental, and yet there doesn't seem to be much appetite so much so that United of all cluster fucks are most heavily linked.

    On the other hand, I know fuck all about football. He'll probably be brilliant.
