Just a few days ago Lyall said we wanted Hiroki Sakai.

I'm not saying this is happening, but Lyall's word is far from gospel.

Starts off as if he knows somethings happening and ends it sounding like he just hopes we sign him


Ally posted a follow-up tweet saying talks appear to be underway but it's not as cut and dried as it's being made out in some places and that it sounds hopeful.

Will be interesting to see what pops up in the french media. Things seem to be pretty transparent over there.

Interesting that his sources (i.e. the club) are confirming talks. Not something we usually do, so maybe there have been positive developments. Makes sense as his season finished last night.

Same, especially because it's the opposite over here. We don't usually get these leaks over here until a deal is being worked on for some time

Sky initially reported we were close to signing him now they’ve changed it to in talks to sign. Let’s hope we can get this one done soon

Different Sky journos. Sky Italy is reporting the perspective of Juve who expect him to join us. Sky UK is saying talks are at an early stage. That's my read of it at least.

Lyall isn’t in the loop imo just like someone mentioned after he said sonny wasn’t happening then a few hours later we announced him I’ve stopped listening to him iswell! If he is in the loop he is definitely a few days/ weeks behind what’s actually happening. We are all just waiting on @JJetset updating us on this really ?

Sky UK are so quick to put a story out and just in case they’re wrong (in most cases), they just stick down according to Sky Italy in the article.

You're probably right. However, his source may have been told that we were not in talks to keep things on the download on that occasion.

What gets me about him is that he deletes anything that does not come into fruition to make himself appear to be on the ball about everything.

He blocked people on twitter who questioned him about the whole Son thing. Reliable or not, he's a bit of a bellend
