Have you heard anything about his replacement, or what they think Ortega will do?
Shortlist of three. Trafford interest is legit and it’s got nothing to do with trying to make Newcastle sell Livramento like some are suggesting.

Trafford is the one that the club feel will be easiest. And key figures at the club rate him very highly.

Ortega more likely to stay then Ederson. By the sounds of it. However ‘the goalkeeper situation is being monitored’ was the message weeks ago.

I wouldn’t be shocked if both left.

Maybe. But a 15m is a low fee. 10m is a low fee, although I don't think we would go that low, 3m is nothing, might as well not bother. We got 5m for Walker who hadnt played for us in 6 months and everyone knew we wanted off the wage bill.
They’ve offered it; we’ve not accepted it.

I doubt we’ll see a penny for Walker. Doesn’t he have to play in 70% of their matches and they need to stay up to trigger the payment?
 
He isn't better than Courtois so Madrid aren't going to sign him, Barca just signed a keeper and PSG have Donnarumma for example.

Maybe a load of clubs have shown interest but realistically anywhere he goes is a step down so he has his pick of where he wants to live and experience.

Would him going to Inter Milan prove hes good but because hes going to Gala hes shit?

You're right about all the above, but you would expect a few top clubs to be interested, and yes, it would help prove he's highly thought of.
 
There is a cost of doing and a cost of not doing. The replacement will obviously cost a pretty penny but if his head isn’t in it there is a cost to keeping him
 
Brah! He is over 30. When do you think he is going to enter his prime? :)
As a goalkeeper, about now. 30-34 is considered prime for keepers and more and more keepers are playing at the top level until their late 30's now. Entirely different to outfield players.
 
Hopefully the Trafford rumours are right
Trafford would be a good number 2 with the club trained status obviously being of high value to us, dont think hes anywhere close to being ready to be a title challengers number 1 though. Has the potential to get there, but not yet.
 
Keep Ederson, let Ortega go, bring in Trafford.

Ederson has one more season, Trafford gets Ortega's minutes and plenty of opportunities to show he can step up and take Edersons place. If he doesn't cut it we buy a new No.1 next Summer.
Decent shout...
 
Lol. People think the greatest keeper we've had in many people's lifetime, a unique, irreplaceable player that redefined the position who has yet to even reach his prime, is worth 60% of the value of kepa...

In the <1% chance it's true, thats genuinely a sackable offence for Viana.
I don't really care how much we do or don't get for him; it's not my money.

All I do care about is that we go into the season ready to reclaim our title.
A lot of the old guard need to go for us to do that and if Eddy wants to go - and there's been smoke for a long time with him - then he goes and we move on.

fun fact this is exactly the reason we never did the rebuild earlier cuz the club never got the fee they wanted. If we had just accepted the fees we got, Emerson could've moved on last season when it was clear he wanted to leave Saudi bid 30 mil for and the club said thats too little, same goes for Bernardo, PSG offered us 70 mil euros in 2023 and the club wanted 80, Saudi approached him with massive wages and were willing to pay us 80 mil but Bernardo wanted to stay in Europe, I think the other club was Barca in 2021 who bid 60 mil but the club stood firm.

Sometimes it's better to take what you get and just move on.

Fun fact - if Bernardo only wanted Europe then he should have dropped his wage demands so that PSG could have given us the 80m. Good fun this making shit up

Are they facts? Sounds like a lot of unsubstantiated speculation to me and not a single fact but I'm assuming you know better to claim them as such?
