Some talk in the athletic today we are keeping tabs. A lb/cb composed on the ball- 6’2 and names stones as his comparison. Played very well in first Italy game at euros and had a brilliant season for Bologna with 7G/A in 30. Only 22 also. On peanuts (12k/pw) and wants out of Bologna. Would suit our current system and be a great deputy for Gvardiol/ake at the lb position and allow them also to play centre half. Btw not his agent!
 
Don't know anything about Calafiori but it seems not the worst of suggestion. With Stones' injury issues we could do with either bringing in a LB and move Gvardiol central or another CB.

I think it's euros as well. No brainer for us, IMO. We could use another defender. We have 6 for 4 spots, including a year older Kyle, injury-prone Stonesy, and a bit injury-prone Nathan.

He looks a bit like Maldini, so count me in ;)
 
Exceptional last year at Bologna.LIcence to roam even into the penalty area where he has the ability to be very calm. At Roma looked good technically at left back but weak defensively. Has improved to a massive extent over the last year or so.
 
Rags will offer half eaten sandwich and small packets of crisps

lol. it does the sort of deal at a price they want to do though mate? They obviously dont have a big budget this summer so £36m ish is where they want to be it seems across the board.
 
We can’t help ourselves when it comes to signing centre backs :) this guy looks class
 
Could see us sending Delap to them for ~15m with a sell on clause and they give us the floor to sign this lad.

Seen Delap has been linked to Bologna and Zirkzee is likely to be sold this summer. Makes a lot of sense to me. Then Delap will show people he is the same quality as Vlahovic and get sold for ~50m in a couple seasons.

This football manager stuff is well easy.
