Jules Koundé

It's a fine city. I'm very fond of it. Really good tapas bar — proper tapas, not some north European concoction —

No good chippy I bet, just some Spanish concoction.

We could get Upamecano for that money. New contract or no new contract.

Assuming Upamecano doesn't have his heart set on Bayern.

Or even that pep is interested in signing him!

The problem with young up and coming players is always the same. Their clubs want you to pay for potential that hasn't yet been realised and they come with no guarantees that the potential will ever be reached as is the case with JK. (Space cowboy). KK meanwhile is the full package as is. Looks like they're going to cost the same, unless Sevilla lower their sights a bit, so depends on what our preferences are right now. Can't see the point of buying another Ake but it's not my choice.

Football aside - if I was a Spanish speaker, I’d like to live in Sevilla.

Does it rain heavily there?

About 25 per cent less than Manchester. Bit warmer too... the rain and the weather.

Kounde was never our target ( as per our discussion in bluemoon). I suppose most of us here want KK as first choice, carlos, giminez then Upamacenco as second and third choice. Kounde was not even in the discussion till recent past.
Personally i want Upamacenco after KK, But i am not a expert to say anything. In club i trust.

 

[himalayan_blues]

I prefer manchester then.

If KK was 26/27 it’d be a no brainer.

Be crazy if Sevilla passed on this offer.

When you add in Otamendi wages saved that’s probably about €65m offer really. Nobody is bidding for Ota this summer are they, so he’d just sit on his wages for a year. I could see the logic behind that offer.
