Jhon Lucumi - Transfer Rumour

[Raven5]

In hindsight, we should have just paid the release clause 3 weeks ago and had him in and settled because there's going to be a very minimal difference in the end.

Not really, that clause was meant to be paid in full, €28m in one go. Now I'm sure we're negociating plenty of installments and add-ons for the €25m.

Can’t understand this if we have been submitting increasing bids we must have had encouragement to say he wanted to come here

Oh well onto the next ones, quickly hopefully

Or the source is shite?

Yes it does seem strange. The source seems reliable as a well connected Colombian sports journalist

But why chase a player for a month only to be told he's not interested?

 

[The Great Soprendo]

I don't see why a Spanish source is relevant here

EDIT: I see he is Colombian. Oh well, let's wait and see.

Neah, no one turns down KLD! We'll get him if we want.

 

[fab t]

He's nee Steve Hetzke mind .

 

[Pacific]

i'd take that with a pinch of salt. there's no way we've been chasing this lad for weeks now without knowing he was up for the move. clubs only bid these days after some off the record encouragement from the players agent

 

[safcj1973]

Ah well, MOVE ON

 

[johnny kayo]

We move on

Maybe he was interested but another offer has cropped up.

Disappointing if true.

He's live streaming in 40 minutes if anybody who speaks Colombian wants to watch and translate
