Yeah but my point was that doesn't mean they aren't also going for Gallagher. Could easily see them signing both. CM is their weak spot without Rice and they could use 2 players.
Move on
Hopefully weve done our homework and sussed out if theres an expiry date on that.POK saying Gallagher and Veiga the ones we like and will probably move for it PEH leaves.
He's saying Veiga allegedly has a €40m release clause
It’s the Spanish league, every player is required to have a release clause in their contract. There is no expiration date. The only chance it would increase is if he signed a new contract with increased clause.Hopefully weve done our homework and sussed out if theres an expiry date on that.

Yeah, 50M is a non-starter so they may not be desperate at all because it's hard to see anyone coming in at the price point. You'd think this summer's price for him would be around 30M, which is still a bit rich but compares more reasonably with the fees Maddison, Barnes, MacAllister, Kovacic, Kulusevski etc have moved for. But they got 55M for Mount and 65M for Havertz, so they've been getting some premium prices this summer already.They must really be desperate for the FFP space if that's what they're after. Not sure who they think is going to come in at that price.
I agree. Veiga looks to be a good goalscorer, but not exactly great in possession in his limited career so far.I realy like Veiga but he will be one that falls into the "can he cut in the PL" quota. Another like Gil or Lo Celso IMO. That's not downplaying the talent of those two either, they're good players - they just seem like they never adjusted as we wanted to.
That's the one benefit with Gallagher to me. He may not be the most silky player, but he will run through a brick wall for you, has that bite, aggression, and it seems like Ange loves those type of players.
£50m is mental
Would rather we keep Lo Celso and spend that on Tapsoba

I don’t really see that re Veiga tbh. He is a hard worker who is not afraid to get stuck in and be physical. Yes he’s only 21 and his body is still developing but having seen him I don’t personally see much of a comparison to Gil say who very clearly needs to bulk up regardless which league he plays in. If anything every time I’ve watched Viega, and I’ve seen him a number of times, I’ve always thought he would suit the PL. What aspect of his style of play makes you concerned in this regard? Or are you just making a general point in regards to any player playing outside of the PL adapting?I realy like Veiga but he will be one that falls into the "can he cut in the PL" quota.

Looks like Kessie is off to JuveI want him
But don't think it's him or Veiga either
Will be someone cheaper and underwhelming like Kessie
