Would be delighted to see Zlatan win big trophy. But I'd rather see Buffon win the UCL this season.

@NovaRuk So would I, I'm just not convinced Juventus will be able to reach the final twice in a row though. :(

• So, Dembele to Barcelona would be question of time now. Sky reported both team came to an agreement with an amount of around 110M pound. Lets see if there is any truth to that. :)

^that'd be a pretty good deal! 😉😉

• Dembele to Barca is close to be done deal it seem. Yeah!
• Snodgrass should join Aston Villa soon. Yeah!
• M'bappe set to join PSG soon...

I really wonder about that Mbappe deal, PSG splashing cash here and there, don't they need someone who will bring water to Mbappe? I'm fairly cheap.

Barca's Instagram announced that the dembele deal is official. Expecting a "sorry we've been hacked" message soon...

Well, hello there

interesting stuff

Fee worth 105 million euros plus add-ons, five year contract and his buy out-clause is set at 400 million euros.
Rennes net 25 per cent of Dembele fee, smashing their transfer record without selling a player.

PSG: challenge accepted

Good signing :o but they still need more. So far they've only patched up the hole in their squad that Neymar left with a player that, I think we can agree on, is not at the same level as Neymar.

Dembele's worst mistake.

Perfect player for barcelona! He will win the ballon d'or before neymar! Congrats to @tiki

@Marcus :P

@Yvan21 But the advantage is that Dembele is quite younger, he will propably be a key player for Barca for the next 10 year. Of course he is not as good as Neymar, but he is certainly one of the world best 20 year old you can find in europe. :)

@Chelsea Not sure if sincere or not but I agree with the statement at the very least. ;)

105 mill euros + 42 mil on bonuses.... Last year we could get him 12 mil.
Ascencio went to Madrid 3 mil euros, we could have bought him too...
Serri was at 15 mil, but we went signing Paulinho for 40 mil.

Bartomeu's days are counted...

@Chelsea thanks bro, but im not really happy of this. Unless we get a proper cdm at least.

it brings an end to the never ending transfer saga between the two clubs. i am most definitely frustrated having to check the news every single day to see whether or not Barca managed to sign him yet, and noooope. not until now. that was weeks ago haha

it should be interesting to watch him play for Barcelona. will he be able to keep the same performance in a different league? or perhaps he will be even better than before. fingers crossed.

question: will he fill the no. 11 shirt? will he play as a LW? coutinho situation?

@Emo yea one of the best promising young stars for sure. If he stays at Barcelona, he'll probably peak once Messi and Suarez are on the dawn of their careers, if not gone.

@ForcaCataluna Yes and yes. I don't see Coutinho happening :v Barcelona should probably focus now on offloading some of their dead weight (Turan, Vermaelen) and bringing in a reliable center back

@tiki that's what i was thinking mate but barca might get coutinho which isn't exactly a cdm? Might play paulinho there?

Lets wait and see, we might get surprised by Paulinho tho lol, if direction put 40 mil on him they might have an idea on his current form or not lol.

Oliver Burke to West Brom is a great move for them and him imo!!! I think that if Burke grabs the opportunities he gets he could have a great season

Dembele specifically rejected a transfer to Barca last summer because he (imo correctly) thought he would become a better player long-term if he moved to Dortmund. A year on, he's now a Barca player, but with the added pressure of replacing Neymar and a fee that is five times what it would've been worth last summer.

Dude...

@Sunflash Yeah, not the best move for his development. :( But pherhap when he saw his pricetag, he realized it was maybe his last chance to join them.

Last year Neymar was à Wall unbreakable to get playing time, now he is sure to be a starter with no competition in his position.
Anyway, I clearly wanted Griezmann in that position but Bartomeu wanted to keep " good relationship " with Atletico he said, LOL.

First time a club defeated both Barca and Madrid in the mercato, Mbappe was willing to go to Madrid next season, Madrid to pay his price tag this season and loan him. Monaco was happy for this, but PSG against went aggressive with a 18 mil per year salary and huge signing bonus obliging Monaco to sell the player to the last team in the world they wanted to strengthen.

Well I don't know what you think about it, but with this overpaying policy, PSG are becoming the hottest place for a professional player to go in. I wont say Mbappe only went for the money, he has more guarantees on playing time than at Madrid, but these salaries are becoming crazy. PSG are taking world football into an odd direction, i personally don't like it.
