Botafogo fans would disagreeI am dreading him trying to buy us once he gets his cash out of palace. He’d be worse than levy et al.
Didn’t he sign with Chelsea like 6 months ago or something
Tbf he was a monster bundesliga kinda like Timo was. Was nkunku just a purple patch or did he have multiple seasons being a stud there?Plus he’s shite
He's too small time for us, couldn't even raise the cash to buy Everton. The palace lads did a number on him, he had over 40% of shares but less than 30% of voting rights. He's getting out cos he's realised his mistake.
On June 20, 2022, Textor became the owner of Olympique Lyonnais by acquiring 40% of the OL Group shares....On December 19, 2022, The Financial Times reported that Textor had acquired a 77.49% stake in the club through his investment vehicle, Eagle Football Holdings. The reported total value of the deal was $940 million (€884 million).
I hadn't heard of this Textor guy, so looked at him on Wiki, and saw this:
Not sure exactly how those numbers pan out, but whichever way you cut it, it looks like he paid the guts of $1b for OL
Seems an utterly insane amount, unless I'm picking something up wrong.
18 months ago and he's been injured so much of the time. Chelsea lucky to get their money back on him.Didn’t he sign with Chelsea like 6 months ago or something
He got 20+ g/a in 3 of the 4 seasons he was at Leipzig.Tbf he was a monster bundesliga kinda like Timo was. Was nkunku just a purple patch or did he have multiple seasons being a stud there?
More evidence how poor the quality of the bundesliga actually isTbf he was a monster bundesliga kinda like Timo was. Was nkunku just a purple patch or did he have multiple seasons being a stud there?
Good player.
Definite upgrade in their midfield over Jorginho and 'Player in their 30s who cannot be named'

What a signing for them. It really hurts that we can't shop at top of market like them
They will desperately need CM reinforcement this summer with two surely leaving in that department.The meltdown that they've blown all that money on a CM and still don't have a recognised striker will be delicious.
