What do you think about the rumours about Pepe from Arsenal? They bought him for 80 mill euros, now they say they will maybe let him go for 30 mill. Loan with an option to buy maybe? Unrealistic maybe, but who knows. He was unplayable in Lille, but a lot more ups and downs for the Gunners. But yet another exiting player with a lot of " X factor".

It's hard to rate Pepe. Was he just too good for Ligue 1 or has he just struggled in the EPL ? He wouldn't be the first ! 
Also, looking at who manages Arsenal could have a bit too do with it.
Pepe could be worth a cheeky loan with obligation.
Quite a few rumours suggest Pioli is about to extend until 2024.

A few reports say positive thing's about not only Romagnoli but Theo, Leao and Bennacer too- we'll see ! 

GdS report Ibrahimovic will be extending as well. 


If Ibra stays then we should be moving Giroud on and bringing 1-2 more strikers depending what management think of Pellegri.
RatBoi unhappy at PSG. He told press that he's "upset" cause he's not first choice GK Big Grin

I am not really like this, but this makes me so happy, I cannot describe it!

He was so impressive in his last year at Lille. And although he obviously never reached those levels again, he hasn't exactly been terrible at Arsenal from my understanding. I don't watch too many of their games though. In any case, what makes him seem like a failure at Arsenal is obviously his price tag.

Like Demonbanana said, it's hard to understand exactly how good he is. Was his Lille form just that? A run of form? Was it true quality? Was it decent quality aligned with the right tactical set up at that club, coaching, etc?  Too many question marks unfortunately. Because of that, again, for me, he is a player that's not worth a big outright transfer sum. But he also wouldn't be the first quality player to not live up to expectations in a different league/country...so because of that, for sure he might be worth taking a risk on one of these loan + option/obligation deals.
Milan Eye: PSG are well placed in the race to sign Kessie on a free transfer. He still requests €9M while Milan offer for renewal is just over €6M/year. PSG have met several times with his entourage and are in good position. Kessie is looking to sell his house in Milan.

Good to hear those players are signing up but why extend Ibra? Surely he retires or goes elsewhere if he wants more game time.

Cya! I keep saying. give him to till Jan to sign or agree to go elsewhere. If he wants to go for free, then let him rot on the bench
5 new possible signings for Primavera.


The first is 18-year-old forward Bob Murphy Omoregbe who plays for fourth tier side Borgosesia, and he should arrive in January, as should Hugo Cuenca, a 16-year-old Paraguayan midfielder that the Rossoneri have been trying to register for some time.

Mohamed-Ali Cho from Angers is also in the viewfinder but €10m is needed to beat the competition of important teams such as Juventus and Inter to land the 17-year-old, while 18-year-old left-back Jordan Varela of Monaco is also being tracked. Finally, Milan also like 18-year-old playmaker Alberto Moleiro from Las Palmas.
Mendes spoke to management and we're close to extending Leao and bringing in Renato Sanches. 


Raiola met Milan management about extending Romagnoli and Ibrahimovic.
Bennacer- Sanches tandem has an tremendous potensial, but is the duo physical enough. Physicality is really important in Italy and we all know that Kessie is important mostly based on that. I know Sanches is strong but maybe it will be a little to less power? I dont know.
