Don’t forget the pound took a major dive following Liz Truss’s mini budget…£50m isn’t what it was only a few months ago!
I’m going to speculate that the Ukranian hrkrhrrfya has taken a bit of a tumble in recent times also so we’ll probably be fine.
hope our bid doesn’t get stuck in the mud
I still think he’s a Twitter clip hype job.
“Ooohhhh look at how he ran into 50yards of empty grass” yeah cool that’ll be useful for us 1% of the time we have the ball.
Could be worth a gamble because he’s played pretty much no top flight football so there’s lots of room to grow but definitely think going over 30mill is crazy risky.
This is opinion not knowledge but still posting it
lets go and sign this 90s boyband hair style looking guy
Fabrizio really pushing this Mudryk to Arsenal agenda. Hope he doesn’t complain when Arsenal fans come at him when Arsenal never step up their interest.
I wonder if he can provide enough of a backup to Saka? He looks like he plays the same position as Martinelli
Why is he doing this though he is a journalist isn’t he? Seems a bit weird for someone in his position to push a player to a particular club. Is he an Arsenal fan?
Think he’s just covering bases. He’s got a get out clause if the deal doesn’t happen and if it does he can say that he’s really gone in strong with this rumour.
He is a Watford fan apparently, hasn’t revealed who he supports in Italy yet but if I could take a guess it’s Udinese.
Dunno, he’s putting all his eggs in this basket. Tbf, he did the same with Odegaard back in 2020 and it worked out for him. We’ll see if he is right, and he better be because it is weird to keep reporting this if there isn’t more to this.
Don’t know how to feel about Mudryk. He looks explosive, Zinny is here and he looks keen on the move. It’s unclear of how good he is though.
Definitely not against the move, he looks like a talented player. Not a fan of the fees being touted though.
The fee is my main gripe as well. The Pepe transfer hurt me. For the reported 50m plus fees, I feel as though there are players available who come with many more guarantees.
40-50m is fine in this market. Look at what Lemar, Joao Felix cost. You want a guaranteed star? You pay almost 150m (all bonuses incl) for Hazard…he just becomes a fat wanker on the bench.
If the club think he’s worth it then let’s try. 85m is a joke from shakhtar and I don’t believe it’ll be close to that.
40m euros? I hear that.
Maybe push it to 50m euros with add-ons since it’s gonna be January move.
Beyond that is unreasonable for a guy that is now having his first full professional season.
Our recruitment team runs deep.
I’d rather raphinha brought in on the cheap, tail between his legs as we do brokealona a favour.
Won’t happen now. Had a couple of good moments recently and got called up the national team, which he will most likely start for.
Probably buys him some time to see if things improve.
Gotta look elsewhere now.
I’d prefer Muddison.
