Looks like a pretty balanced and reasonable report. Doesn't sound close to resolution but hopefully they are a bit behind. Would make sense for us to push hard this week, as long as the funds are available (and not subject to Eriksen's move to RM).
Certainly has the feel of the NDombele transfer, in that the player wants us, we want the player, but the selling club are holding out for a high price despite any potential bidding war failing to materialise. Can only assume we will get it done, but at a price closer to what we want. That might take a bit longer than ideal for pre season purposes, but given his international commitments and subsequent rest period, i think we would be reasonably happy to string this one out to the end of our window before buying, whereas we needed Tanguy done asap so that he could start pre season with the rest of the squad.
If ,as seems likely, we get Ceballos in, then any hugely urgent need for Lo Celso is somewhat diminished (presuming everyone else is also fit). I also think the fact he's Argentinian might make his settling in period and adapting to Pochs' methods slightly easier/quicker than another player, and he also seems a high intensity player anyway, so hard to think he wouldn't 'get' Pochs' work rate and pressing.
Moneywise, there did appear to be a large amount of credit left over from our stadium loans, so perhaps we are using some of that to finance the moves now, then will replenish it with transfer money received from outgoings (rather than us being hampered by waiting to receive money before we can buy) ??
