How much longer Are they keeping Navas you think?

Depends on what they do in the summer. The annual Courtois/De Gea rumors are popping up again, and it definitely sounds like Kepa is viewed as more of a long term project. I would love for RM to just activate Oblak's release clause, because I think he's the best GK in the world. But since that seems unlikely, I wouldn't be shocked to see Madrid splash some cash for Courtois, and ship Navas to maybe Liverpool.

Shocking development here....Schlake’s Leon Goretzka will sign a pre-contract with wait for it..................................

 

Bayern Munich. I know, we’ve never seen Bayern poach the best player of another Bundesliga club for free (or next to nothing). Seriously though....great get for Bayern. He’s a special talent that will pair nicely with Toliso in the future.

I would take 25m and Mkhitaryan and run with it. That's decent value for a player who can sign a Free right now. 

I think Arsenal wants cash.  They are meeting Malcom and Pavón representatives.  Walcott is about to move to Everton as well so Arsenal needs 2 new wingers.

you're forgetting that Sanchez will just say no. If he's going to Utd he might as well just stay at Arsenal, it's not a step up. he wants to win trophies. he already turned down PSG and Bayern because he wants to play for Pep. he will go to City or he'll wait out his contract.

i know. a City source i trust wholeheartedly leaked this days ago, saying Utd were getting ready to try to hijack and are legitimately interested in Sanchez.

today he just said that Sanchez has already rejected them. he says that soon Utd will distance themselves from it to save face, and Sanchez will sign with City soon after.

BBC reports:

-Alexis will move to City for £25M with £5M in add-one.  

-Malcom to Arsenal is virtually done

-Walcott to Everton for £20M is almost done.

-Cocqulin sold to Valencia for £12M

-Arsenal still negotiating with Pavon.  Initial stage.

-Monaco said Lemar is for sale.  Arsenal said they won’t pay more than £50M (They bid £92M 3 months ago).

    • TBH, these are the kind of players that get weeded out of professional sports pretty quickly. Also, CMC is not that guy. There is zero indication that he isn't competitive. 
    • I like the free agency. It actually helps basically all schools across the board. Pretty much only ancient HC's and/or HC's that haven't been able to adjust have been complaining about the free agency. Your fortunes can be made or broken every offseason. It's not like before where a bad recruiting class or two meant multiyear purgatory.  I will never understand all the bellyaching about the NIL. If you want to talk about what ruined college athletics, it has been naked greed. Conference expansions for TV revenue, ever skyrocketing AD and facilities costs and now the attempts to permanently ruin the postseasons(football and basketball).  All the kids did was get a very well deserved piece of a very, very, VERY broken pie.
    • Nobody is saying they don't count against the cap, because yes, they technically do count against the cap as it's money the team is paying and it needs to be accounted for. But what you're not grasping it seems is that if a player gets $10 million guaranteed in their contract, whether they get literally $0 as a signing bonus or $8 million as a signing bonus, it doesn't change the overall cap hit of the contract, because cap hits are about the guaranteed money, not how much is paid up front. The only thing that how much is paid up front changes, is how the cap hit can be spread out amongst the years. So yes, technically there could end up being a slightly bigger cap hit in year 3 and 4 due to a bigger signing bonus, but if that is the case, it also means there will be a lesser cap hit in years 1 and 2 than there would have been with a smaller bonus.  But over the length of the contract, the size of the signing bonus has literally zero affect on the overall cap hit of the contract, because THAT part of it is 100% about the guaranteed money and nothing else.
