Chelsea keep asking for €80m fee, this is why deal was not progressing this week but it’s not over.
Chelsea need to sell to be able to buy any players right? They’ll probably soften their stance soon
You would think so. 70 million for mount seems like a steep price for sure.
Would he be a starter at United or rather a back-up?
I think he would start. He must be good enough to displace Fred
What about Eriksen and Sabitzer? Considering Bruno and Casemiro are probably locked in - only one spot left.
I’m not actually a United fan so I don’t know what Sabitzer’s loan situation is. But I do watch a lot of them and Eriksen is definitely on his last legs. I think he becomes a bench player next season.
My take on their center midfield targets is that Mount is a good player and would be good for them but he still doesn’t solve their problem of progressive carries and tight possession. They need a De Jong type player and Mount definitely isn’t that. But the midfield is very weak so he’s an upgrade on what they have at least
