Houssem Aouar

That would probably be the best window we’ve ever had by some margin lol

If Aouar is available for 20mill, I think you just jump at that surely. It’s almost half the price of a Ramsdale.

Aouar’s agent working OT.

That’s a rumor that makes zero sense.

Lyon is broke, which is why they’re willing to sell Aouar for 20-25m in the first place. N’Dombele makes like 200k per week and Levy would certainly want money from Lyon in a swap deal given that they paid 60m for him.

It feels like Aouar’s agents are getting desperate and just feeding all sorts of shit to the media in the hope of prodding Arsenal to move (good luck with that).

Feels like it. The story keeps shifting, sounds like they can’t get their story straight.

Essentially sounds like a desperate agent that overplayed his hand last summer, and is now frantically trying to sort his client out with a half-decent move.

He would have got £175-200k at Arsenal if we’d signed him last season. He’ll be lucky (lol in relative terms) to get £125k.

And Lyon also fucked it by not selling for £35-40m last summer. Taking a leaf out of Arsenal’s book with the piss poor transfer strategy on this lad.

Sounds about right. So his agent made up some bs about most of the PL’s Big 6 being interested and fed it to Bernard and the ESPN guys.

I’d offer one third of a Ramsdale and leave it at that

The Ramsdale exchange rate / currency system puts everything into perspective.

Aouar for approximately 0.5 - 0.6 Ramsdales. Be mad not too.

No need to dwell on this until the end of the transfer window to save 5mil, he’s already available at a discount.

His stock really has fallen dramatically hasn’t it ?

So glad we didn’t sign him last season, called it last summer that this would happen haha

Really? How come?

Thought that he was overhyped and that the season he had for Lyon didn’t look as spectacular as people made out to be, and I was very sceptical of his brothers meddling in the transfer affairs.

Here were are a season later, he’s had an underwhelming season, his value has more than halved and his brother is still involved causing trouble.

Thanks but no thanks.

Still rather have him than farting around all summer waiting for Ødegaard and then not getting anyone.
