Mateo Kovacic

[TarnatsLeftPeg]

Really would love Kovacic, think he is a fantastic player but with Jorginho now done, this is unlikely to happen. Maybe only if the Gundogan to Barca rumours have some truth and Gundogan wanted to go.

Fishing?

Maybe Fernandinho will move to centre half if Kovacic is to come in.

I’d prefer Kovacic to Jorginho, but I doubt Real Madrid will let him leave for £50m and rumours of a release clause in that range have been denied.

I’d like to know why we are so keen to count the pennies this summer - do we only have circa £60m net spend or are we holding money back for someone else.

I read somewhere that he did a new contract last summer which allowed his release clause to be increased to 300mil(euros)

Yes because we're going to throw out 2 months of negotiations for Jorginho only to sign a player who is more expensive...

60 million euros too much but a 300 million euro release clause is just right.

Couldn't get Napoli to sell a 50 million player after haggling for a couple millions for 2 months and somehow Txiki is now going out whip out his world class negotiation skills and get Madrid to sell Kovacic for 60 million. Genius.

i do NOT want this guy, everytime i see him play i just complain about slow his play looks. hope this isnt plan "c" or "d". I honestly hope we can somehow get weigl instead of all these players.
