It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

[Abu_Dhabi_Doo]

The only thing I would say about Jude Bellingham is that because Dortmund signed him as an u18, they could only give him a 3 year contract which ends in 2023.

All the German press said it's not a big deal, he'll sign a 2 year extension on his 18th birthday etc. but I've never seen an official announcement or picture.


Could it be that Bellingham's camp have fucked over Dortmund and not extended? Is that why Watzke is bemoaning oil clubs today in the press?

1% chance?

It could also be that Haaland has a sell-on clause, hence the lower fee now being quoted, which could on turn translate into City paying a higher fee for Bellingham to compensate. Just a thought!

Dom doesnt his contract expire in 2025?

All the German press said it's not a big deal, he'll sign a 2 year extension (UNTIL 2025) on his 18th birthday etc. but I've never seen an official announcement or picture.

Would Dortmund demand more than 50-60m that FDJ should cost even with 1 year? Probably. Would it melt the internet? Definitely.

But we'd surely have heard about it already and 10 clubs would be competing for him.

1% chance?

Plus the rumour from the dippers when they were talking about him in February was that Bellingham wanted a release clause in any new deal at Dortmund.

Pep announcement today?

 

[BlueDejong]

Love Rice...but

 

[Vester]

Tolmie, is the one who would cost more than FDJ an option instead him, or are we after Frenkie AND this other player who would melt the internet?

 

[FantasyIreland]

We're bringing Kante home.

I would enjoy the “Rice and three” headlines with the four new signings pictured together I suppose

 

[RayCTID]

To be fair to Rice I don't think that would break the internet(although the over inflated fee would cause a few ripples) . Pogba springs to mind (but I hope not) but that would cause a bit of trouble amongst the current players (although off the pitch there are no question marks)
