[Albion] Where is Moises going? (Chelsea - 14/08/2023)

[Hugo Rune]

Wait.

So Liverpool have had a 111m bid accepted but caicedo has turned them down?

Because he wants to keep his word he gave Chelsea in May when he agreed personal terms with them?

Even though Chelsea hadn't even made a bid let alone had it accepted?

This is pretty shambolic from Chelsea and team caicedo.

And against the rules. We should report them for an illegal approach.

 

[Greg Bobkin]

LOLz. Even if they don't come back with another offer, this aged well....

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

He’s not sat in a room being spoken to in English and nodding along pretending to understand with no clue what’s going on

To be fair, that's  exactly how every transaction takes place for me in Japan.

Can't see Chelsea matching Liverpool offer though! They'll just encourage Moises to strike until Bloom accepts their (alleged)90 million +add ons

 

[Hugo Rune]

This is all getting a little out of hand. Is Tony Bloom really going to allow Moises to dictate who the club sell to? I'm afraid Moises is beginning to look like a (petulant) player that wants to control Bloom and the club. As a businessman will Tony now allow Caicedo to usurp his ldecision? If Liverpool concede and Chelsea match or better all terms agreed by Liverpool, maybe, however it is handing the player too much power, whatever his value!

It’s surely Liverpool or Brighton in this window. He has a choice.

 

[Clive Walker]

They’re going to have to match it, as if they don’t come back, he will just go to Liverpool, it’s a sorry state of affairs. Get Mac Allister on the phone.

No sure about that. He has basically rejected a move to Liverpool. So if Chelsea don't come up with a suitable offer he isn;t going to either. Liverpool havn;t taken the offer off the table but I can't imagine he will be welcomed in with open arms and at THAT price so may walk away soon

Ultimately Bloom won't care too much where he fecks off to, just the numbers, which if Chelsea match will be sufficient.

Who cares as long as we get the fee we have agreed.

Players do have a say in where they move to though. In this case he was wrong to promise to go to Chelsea and he’s done this all about as badly as a player can tbh, but none of that means he has to choose to go to Liverpool.

Maybe he can’t stand Ale?

I give up


This is just too ridiculous for words at this point

Romano's information will be coming from the same place his information has been coming all summer (and back in January): Caicedo's agents. It's my guess that they stand to make something from a Chelsea deal that they won't make from a Liverpool deal and are desperate not to lose it.

How are they possibly serving the interests of their client by, after a deal has been agreed, leaking stories that he doesn't want to join a club prepared to break the British transfer fee record for him. Circumstances may make some think that they are now actively working for Chelsea, not for their client. Greed is a dangerous thing that can lead people to overplaying their hand and losing everything.

It does make you wonder if anything underhand is going on.

Brighton, inadvertently, got caught in some dealing or other, when Dale Stephens came to us from Charlton.

 

[Seasider78]

Where is the evidence that he refused to play? Are you accusing Paul Barber of lying?

Take your pick of one of the many mouthpieces his camp have been using to voice his side of the story. I think the club being the good guys have said he is unavailable so protect him from the inevitable backlash from supporters of him downing tools.

 

[Rodney Thomas]

Chelsea have so much history for this sort of shit:

 

[willalbion]

This is such a bizarre transfer.

 

[JJ McClure]

'Out of respect'...yeah I believe you

 

[The Wizard]

That’s bound to please Liverpool fans, what a strange way to conduct yourself and potentially alienate your new teams fan base before you even sign.

He's always wanted to play for Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool.

 

[TWOCHOICEStom]

What if after all of this, Tony just tells Chelsea to f*** off and he remains a Brighton player...
