Look for the DeZerbi quote re: Caicedo and the “promise” he could leave! Melt down in the Kings Road
It’s a Fab Romano one.

[Albion] Where is Moises going? (Chelsea - 14/08/2023)
- Thread starter Bozza
- Start date
Christopher Vivell? Really? Where did you hear that?
Edit - just seen it. Wow! To be fair though, how many heads of recruitment and technical directors do one club need and still get it wrong time and again! Basket case club.

Fab’s seemingly disproved his own line of reporting re: the supposed “pact”, there. Amateur hour.Look for the DeZerbi quote re: Caicedo and the “promise” he could leave! Melt down in the Kings Road

Mbappe for sale could do a job 
Doesn’t have to be someone from the Albion. Just his agent. But that’s the definition of an unreliable witness. Or perhaps, more accurately, an irrelevant one as the player is under contract for several years.
That still leaves Winstanley and the other guy (Stewart) on transfers. Being jointly quoted every time someone signs - ludicrous. When has anyone worth their salt ever accepted that situation? Smacks a bit of the old Houllier/Evans partnership at Liverpool. Too many cooks and all that…
It does indeed. Boehly won't admit a mistake and sack his original nominee for the job. Like Houlier/Evans though, it can't go on. Either Boehly's boy will be sacked (mutual agreement, of course) or Winstanley will move on to bigger and better (he is, after all, a compulsively ambitious so-and-so) before the end of the season.
Fab Rom shamelessly tries to creep into the Albion fans' good books.................

Ben Jacobs asks RDZ if its true that he has a verbal agreement with Caicedo that he can leave this window (which is what Jacobs has been reporting) De Zerbi says no, I'm just a coach.

Has RDZ actually denied saying this to Caicedo, or is he more implying that he did say it, but he had no authority to make that agreement. Sounds like the latter to me.

From that conference it sounds to me that he denies ever saying it, he denied it twice.
This all stems from a post match interview RDZ did last season when he said that Mac Allister and Caicedo could leave as they deserve to play at the highest level, that's not the same as an agreement that they can leave.

Can we just take a minute to appreciate just how lucky we are to have RDZ as our coach.
So humble and talented and with English as his second language he still manages to get across his feelings without any question of his goal and support for those above him.
indeed. I think much of this talk of an agreement stems from that and something that's been either lost in translation or intentionally twisted

He means that has no authority to make a deal like that. Jacobs said "If the price is right" - that applies to all of our players but at least I think he is starting to recognise that the price is right means what is acceptable to us and not what Chelsea think they are entitled to pay for him.
