Don’t believe it just yet but honestly what a coup this would be.

I’m not saying he will reach the heights of Pogba, but it would be a Pogba to Juventus from United esque signing.

He looks great but his age, style, position and price are veeeerry similar to Sarr (with Sarr the more impressive of the two based on what I've seen).

If we're solely building for the future this could be masterstroke, but don't we need one or two more players for right now?

Seems to be Chelsea bound based on media sources.

Would be a stupid career move for him - he'll just be farmed out on loan.

If he goes there it just shows he's chasing the money and doesn't care about actually playing.

Whereas for us he could be starting relatively quickly.

With us he could be starting relatively quickly.

it could very well be a stupid move for him, but it’s their model to spoil buy everyone. Always has been. It’s a joke of a situation that they can buy with no opportunity cost whatsoever.

Literally the world’s most unlikeable club

And whatever happens they’ll still loan him out and make double profit

Go on, that's right. Kill my buzz from our performance tonight already why don't you.

Haven't you got an Ovaltine to make for yer missus, or something else you should be busying yourself with.

That's the way, see you tomorrow.

If he goes to Chelsea it’s because they would put him on insane 150-200k wages and loaned out for 6 years

Given his reputation and also our targetting of young players with potential, I’d hope we’d be all
over this, and have Gil and Reguillon whispering in his ear.

Loving these links to young top talent.

Didn't something come out saying we're hiring someone specifically for the role of signing young talent?

You have a link? I saw a sport witness article that seemed like it was putting 2+2 together from him being in London and thus must mean Chelsea vs a concrete link.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s them. They do seem to get anyone they want no matter what.

Very similar to Sarr. I’d say Moriba is more attack oriented and has the better final ball and attacking instincts with his box movement. Sarr better physical profile and this helps him to be better defensively. But really he’s a B2B as is Sarr, so idk. But very very talented. Think his agents are shit and greedy though.
