Is there any evidence that Jorghino has cooled his interest in the move, or that Chelsea of the 2 managers fame have moved on the scene.
The 2 things to remember is De Laurentis is more against everything than Boris Johnson and has less negotiating speed and subtlety than David Davies, although the transfer may go through before April 2019.
As to Chelsea entering the scene, can anybody point me to a credible source other than the rambling Alfredo Pendulla (the Italian John Cross) who tweets a new italian rumour every 27 minutes. His rambling was that if Chelsea were to come in and outbid us for Jorghino it might make De Laurentis more inclined to release Sarri more cheaply.Pedulla has less credible sources than Jamie Jackson although he does have better written English.
Pedulla's tweet was seized on by every rewrite merchant in Calcutta, Mumbai and Lahore and appeared on every 5th rate news outlet as fact within 24 hours. Chelsea with Marina Granovskaia in charge are looking at a management restructuring which will end with one manager, a new technical director, a strategy for handling the fall out from retreating from the redevelopment of the Bridge and keeping the unable to work in the UK Abrahomovich on board. I do not see now as the best time to get in a pissing contest with City.
There is flapping on here on the scale of United entitlement or Everton anger. The same group of players who enjoyed 2017/8 will still be here in 7 weeks.
