Hopefully wait until summer would still mean we buy now with loan vs wait until summer to buy
Of course it would. We're not going to just back out of it and hope nobody else rocks up in the summer. He's too good to not take advantage of this financial head start we have.

I'll add the plan with Nusa was always for the Summer. However after Ange spoke to him personally he was very impressed with the lad, and has asked if we could do it now.

It's less likely and we will wait if that's what it takes.
I have no idea how we would convince them to let him go now but for Ange to want him now after a phone call makes me feel these two working together could be game changing.

Struggling to see the point of loaning him back if he doesn’t make the first team

in H's case its all about the fee - the £100m is booked as pure profit as he was home grown. hence why chavski are desperate to drum up business for Gallagher. All about the accounting.
We'll spend that if we haven't already but FFP will force teams to run at 70% of turnover next year.
Chelsea will have to increase Gallagher's wages to get him to sign a new contract so they need to get rid and the fee is a bonus.

Just to further add, he recently started their last league game, he started their game against Gent in the quarter final of the league cup which was just 4 days ago (probably the reason he didn’t start tonight) and he started their last game in the conference league against Brode where he scored an excellent goal. He has had two back injuries this season the last in Nov and as far as I’m aware they wanted to ease him back after his return. They want to keep him because they want to play him as they value him highly.

I didn't anticipate seeing Chadli tonight but he's just come on. No sign of Nusa but Club Brugge are 2 nil up now so he'll probably sit it out.

Edit - I know nothing, Nusa's coming on.
