He's not given the impression of being committed at all and will be off like a Cucurella as soon as he can. Might even be pissing about with a release clause demand. Too much trouble I reckon.

"But he plans to go". Sounds like we've dodged a bullet of future pain.

We are flexible and can take every case on its merits. Alexis had so much credit in the bank.... this guy has zero.

Pretty basic stuff. If he insists on a release clause and we don't do them then :wave: onto the next target.

If he doesn't want to join us we just move on. No biggie :shrug:

Of course. They desperately need to save a bit of face.

Each day closer to the deadline justifies a higher fee from here on in.

Indeed. Let's not be known as "the release clause club".

Personally I'm not a fan of caving in to these sort of demands. It also hints that he has plans to be off like a Cucurella. Asap. I'm liking signing this player less and less. I suppose, though, it depends on who plan B is. And if there is a realistic plan B.

It could be true. Equally, untrue things develop legendary undisputable truth if repeated enough. It's a good theory at least.

Anyway, whether it is true or not, there is not any chance we'll sign him with a release clause unless it is set at silly money level. Otherwise they'll all want one and the entire club transfer strategy is vaporised by 1 deal. Lol.

Is their source Twitter guesswork ?

It's as good a theory as any but sounds more like a guess. Let's not make it an accepted FACTOID.

If he's holding out for another club at this stage then I'd give him a firm deadline to sign and see what happens then. And move on to alternative targets unless he finds his pen.

I don't trust that twitter account from previous windows.

Sounds like he is so reluctant to join that he'll be off quicker than Cucurella if he does. Lol.

Has he agreed his contract for sure ? I can't keep up. One minute he has, the next he hasn't.

Promising.

He'd be an asset. 'Need' depends on our target - which is guesswork for us outsiders.

Very odd that he's selected today. A very bad sign.
