Jules Koundé

[RayCTID]

Could be the 1 out of the blue signings???

Smoke & mirrors while we deal with the kid from Spain

He looks very comfortable on the ball also

I would say this is more of a Garcia replacement rather than Stones

Nico & Garcia to leave & Kounde & 1 other maybe to come in leaving Stones to fight for his place

Not the worse of scenarios

How is he any better than Garcia? I know they're just highlights, but he's as underwhelming as they come. I prefer an Eric Garcia one-year rental or just push our luck with THB, Adarabioyo or even Stones.

He's better at literally everything apart from maybe passing. And better by absolute miles.

If Garcia is as good, in two years, I'll be sorry we lost him.

Right now he's not even on the same planet & imo never will be

Kounde was amazing in the europa league 68 million release clause is how we do things so it's perfect for us. Only thing that annoys me is what are our scouts doing kounde was available last year from the French league for 25mil

This would be an excellent signing.

Would be great because my Koulibaly tattoo isn't finished so I can make it a Kounde one instead.

Tbf he will have been one of many 'promising' cbs at that time & we had several.

How does he compare to Upamecano?

 

[BillyShears]

Sounds like he's the one. The Telegraph story has been downplayed. The deal, from the Spanish side at least, sounds like it's closer than how it's been written. Could still all be a ploy but people not killing it dead.

I'm officially on the Koundé train. Koundé Carriage?
