Any update on Semedo? Haven't heard or read anything on him for a while now. Still gotta feeling Bellerin will be the new RB.

Wait for another few days of no mentioning of him in Catalan media (and their continuing obssesion with Bellerin) and then boom, one day Semedo will be announced as our new RB signing. Or someone else not named Bellerin.

I believe that catalan media (even those few usually more reliable journalists) don't really have a clue what we're trying to do and who our real targets are. Robert is keeping his cards close to him and I for one am happy about that. But of course most people are going crazy and jump at every possible rumours as if they are true.

Well, what else you gonna do when there's no football. People like to dream and press monetize it.

It's a bit different now with digital media taking over but I do remember those summers when I took the sports papers to the beach and enjoyed reading about rumors. :)

You have a point.

Could just be the Catalan press trying to lobby for Bellerin, but wouldn't be shocked if some board members are behind it. They've done it before.

is he good enough for barca ?

He's a better dribbler, better passer and more creative than Bellerin.

Bellerin is just a bit more faster and physical.

Obviously people might be worried after Danilo flopped, but he's the real deal IMO.

Dive into next years money and let's get both Verrati and Semedo. The 2 spots are essential. Sell some garbage and recoup the money for Semedo and we're good to go for the next season. Let Dembele develop a little more at Dortmund and next summer go for him too.

Let's do this you imbecile board.

And André Silva with a 60 M. buyout just went for 38 M € to Milan - so if we really should be able to get him for cheaper than his 40 M buyout! :)

From what I've read Porto have financial problems so they had to sell Andre Silva. Don't know how Benfica's finances are but they've already sold Ederson and Lindelof this summer so I guess they don't NEED to sell anymore unless it's under their terms.

And AFAIK Semedo's buyout clause is also around 60M. According to the latest rumours we've offered 43M. We probably wouldn't be doing that if his clause would only be 40M unless we have too much money to spend. :p
