11 - Ousmane Dembélé - V1

[Messi10]

It's happening! All tommarow papers are saying it

 

[DonAK]

BVB stubborn as fuck.

Doesn't help that our board is full of useless cunts who had no Plan B in place in case Neymar left

 

[Arkk]

I don't know but Barca's officials working hard to present the signing(s) of either Coutinho or Dembele or both by tomorrow's Gamper cup.

i would laugh my ass off and cry at the same time if they announced a suprise signing and they unveiled Paulinho before the game

 

[Devils]

yeah it's kinda funny how half the forum was suggesting to "low ball" the first offer simply for tactical purposes, but when Dortmund high-balls as a response everyone goes nuts like "wtf I wasn't prepared for that."

In the end there's likely going to be an agreement in the middle, with bonusses included.

Exactly.

Dortmund have every right to high ball, especially since they know our desperate scenario. But the fact that they are entering negotiations with us means that they are flexible with their price and are willing to sell.

we announce three big name signings.

We quietly announce Paulino during all the madness so people wouldn't notice. first game of the season Paulinho starts and people will be wondering "Who's this Brazilian dude?"

If Dortmund reject something like 105m for Dembele.... then they're idiots.

 

[Julien]

It's in the print version. Probably will be published tomorrow

Exactly, that's why I said I'll be able to confirm this morning once I get my hands on it

Who cares if they are not realistic? Those clubs don't need money, and they know Barca is a bit desperate "and" rich.

As I said above, I'll check if it's really from Kicker, but if it is, then they have some infos.

Let's be honest here, we're not going to bid 180m euros for Dembele, just like PSG/Real are not going to bid 200m for Mbappe.

The supposed Kicker infos don't say we bid that. It says they won't accept unless the offer is crazy.

To me it sounds like a polite way to say No. They put a crazy demand upfront knowing no one will offer this, and if by miracble somebody does, it's win-win for Dortmund.

(I'm also defending Kicker because they are a serious media from my native country, so I don't know if this Bilel is credible, but I know our Kicker is.)

So our first offer was 70M and Dortmund wants 180M.
We'll offer 80M next and Dortmund will still demand 160M
Third offer will be 90M and they'll want 140M
Next we'll finally offer 100M but BVB will hold out for 120M.
Then transfer window will close before we'd have time to make our final offer of 110M which would be accepted.




But don't worry, we have a secret weapon already on the team and we'll just unleash our Turkish beast that will make everyone forget about this French kid. After a great season when he'll lead us to the treble he'll get a well deserved reward next summer - contract extension till 2025.

Wtf.

Did you change your username or are we getting invaded?

I swear your username was Emma earlier today

You're right since I'm obviously trying to.... what exactly? This is my opinion. In the end it's not gonna matter anyways. Let's wait and see.

the Turkish beast can't do it alone, he will need help from his sidekick

it feels like the old days on PES where you'd be negotiating with a player and the window abruptly ends.

Let's say Dembele leaves.

Won't Pulisic take over his position?

 

[Yannik]

They are negotiating since like 2 days. Common sense suggests they have reached no agreement yet and I wouldn't take any source seriously that claims that any type of fee got accepted.

 

[puri]

I hope he'll mature into his position.
