He may not want to ask for a transfer but if Chelsea make an offer that is in line with our valuation for him & we were to turn it down I am pretty sure his agent would start to get involved thereby unsettling Declan? Everyone unfortunately for us has their price so if an offer comes in and David Moyes is given the majority to reinvest on some proper signings and not just ones that an agent who happens to be a friend of one of the owners can facilitate a deal on for us then we may have to accept it.
He's only 21 so I think he would stay for another year, but he's the type of player who should be competing for trophies, something realistically he is never going to get with us
It's on us to get a deal that maxes his value, no different to Maguire, Mahrez, Van Dijk, Lukaku, stones etc
If we are offered around £70mil I assume that we would be likely to do a deal
Again I hope we can keep him for one more season given his age, then we can make sure we aren't getting a lowball COVID discount value for him
The bonds , brooking and nobles , are few and far between.
Lol where is your hope
Maybe, just maybe, Declan feels the same ..... please please pleasey please
If Chelsea want him now, it’s over £80m. As people have said, he won’t kick off, he owes his career to us & does not strike me as the sort to down tools.
I want to see Fornals do stuff like this next season
With Rice, I think selling for a massive fee and rebuilding is exactly what we're going to have to do, as painful as it is. But there's some basic stuff that needs to be done first. We need to make sure we're spending it effectively (and Soucek and Bowen are the only two 100% hits recently, arguably Diop as well) and identifying the next player to buy and sell on for a big fee. There's no point in it being a one-off thing.
In the current conditions, I don't think we're ready to sell him.
And if he wants to play with Mount, he should wait to see whether Mount is playing regularly after Chelsea make all these attacking signings.
A piece of good news. The rumours were that Jorginho was going to Juventus to play under Sarri again and the money would be put towards buying Rice as his replacement.
Sarri got sacked cos Juventus got knocked out of the Champions League yesterday.
The headline from that link:
Chelsea target Declan Rice keen on Blues move
Has anybody heard, read, seen anywhere that says that this is true?
Has he come out and said "I'm keen on a move to Chelsea"?
I notice two things that make him worth even more than just his ability, the first is he looks like he just loves to play football and the second he is so robust, he plays in a very combative position but I cant recall him even picking up a niggle.
Per Mertesacker?
Not fot me.
I'm going cross-eyed trying to see how he does it.
To think we were gob-smacked the first time we saw the "Cruyff turn".
