He couldn't reach one of them..Missed two sitters
For 21 and a regular for fiorentina he looks like a player with loads of potential

Where did 40 million come from?For 40m? Against makeshift Irish defence.
Thats whats being quoted for him. Its like FSG are marketing him at those prices.Where did 40 million come from?
He also has 12 goals in serie A this season

Would you advise Brands to pay for 40m for an understudy to DCL?
He would've been a good shout 12 months ago.
A very quick searchWho quoted that?
He won't be sold for 40 million .
Absolutely no chance what so ever.
A very reputable source..Italian clubs are screwed financially.A very quick search

He's only a long term deal at Fiorentina they won't be selling him for peanuts and we wont be spending 40m on him. Not on what I saw tonight anyway. Mitrovic scored both his chances btw........
I agree hes decent but we wont be signing him.A very reputable source..Italian clubs are screwed financially.
They won't get that.
Maybe we won't. But he looks a very good player.
It seems a very random shout, but then James was a very random shout 12 months ago.
The fact these stories are coming up, around the time that FFP is due to go is very interesting. I mean it's hard to imagine us signing them if FFP stays or if we are not in (at least) the EL. However Ancelotti has a pull to him. Winning at Anfield, coming back to geta result at OT etc tend to have quite a symbolic impact.
We are said to be targetting Serie A as there is financial trouble. I believe Inter are in quite a hole currently. He has 2 years on a contract, if an extension can't be agreed, youd imagine he gets sold before he really starts to bleed value.
They apparently wanted 100m last year for him which nobody paid. Lets assume his real value was closer to say 75m as to what the market would have gone too. If prices drop again next year, lets be catious and say 30% that puts him available at around the 50-55m spot. Maybe.
Exciting names. If FFP goes I could see is spending 200m+ sales.

Knowing us we would sign the wrong halfThe Koulibaly stuff is all well and good, but what about signing half the Brentford team??
Where did you buy your crystal ballI would imagine if we are prepared to get Koulibaly, it will be because FFP is either relaxed or abolished, and all of the above (with the exception of goalkeeper) will also be sorted.
Have we ever been linked to Emerson or do you just really like the guy? I can’t keep up.Anythings possible
Lautaro: Would be 24--same as DCL/Richarlison-- by the start of next season, which is perfect. He'd be ideal at the tip of a diamond and would be the link to midfield and attack. I dont think he'd be available at £50-55mil though unless Brands pulled a rabbit out of a hat, his value would be more like £80mil even now.
Youre right about Inter needing the money due to their Chinese owners. Notable other players at Inter are Bastoni (CB) who looks to me to be the next great italian defender, Hakimi (LB/RB/LM/RM) who they missed the last payment to Madrid for and Barella (CM) possibly the most underrated midfielder around.
They wont need to sell all of them but those 4 would make us a top 4 side. Without question.
Rabiot: Turns 26 in just over a weeks time and in this world where we sign Lautaro, he'd come in for Gomes on the left central midfield role. Hes someone who can come deep to pick up the ball and can 'break the lines' to pass to Lauraro, DCL or Richarlison...and of course the two full backs bombing on in a diamond. I like Rabiot and he'd probably link well with Digne as he does for France.
Koulibaly: 30 in the summer, same as VVD and probably at the top level for 3 seasons before a decline. Pretty much the 'perfect' centre back for the premier league and he and Godfrey could just stand on the halfway line such is their pace. If he is available at £40mil odd and we could sell Mina or Keane then its a huge jump in quality...Godfrey should also improve with him in the side and hes a really good passer as well.
Add these 3 players + Aarons/Emerson at right back then we'd look like a team built for a diamond or back 3.
On paper, together they look like ideal signings.
Id be amazed.
