    Dest style of play fits better with Barca and Dest had once said he would like to play for Barcelona.

  3. Nope. Barca still has to solve the two problems. The payment to the State and the demand from the FA about cutting the wage bill.

    Looks like he will wear the number 28 there.

    This is completely silly and I'll be thrilled with either club, but I'm kinda hoping Dest ends up at Bayern just because I want Konrad de la Fuente to be the first American to play for Barcelona, especially since he's said that was a goal.

    Would be a (small) bummer to bethisclose to being the first and then cock-blocked by Dest right before your debut.

    The interwebs are saying Dest prefers Barca but BM's offer is higher, fwiw.

    Without looking up specifics, my impression is Bayern has recently gotten many good players at very good prices. They're frugal.

    I guess this means the world is about to end. Look up for asteroids, everyone.

    Konrad can become the first American born US player to ever play for Barca

    TV3 advances agreement between Barcelona and Ajax for the transfer of Sergiño Dest for 20 M € fixed and 5 variables. The winger will be a new Barcelona player !!

    Who knows what to think anymore
     
  15. You're then looking in the wrong direction. The Yellowstone supervulcano will burst on election day.
    It's true! I made it up myself.

    Wow. If true, my pie in the sky wishes of Dest and DLF playing on the same side for Barca getting a bit closer to reality.

    Sometimes when you wish upon a start things come true. We haven't seen these two play together since the U20WC

    I didn't think they combined particularly well in the WC. I kept waiting for it, but my recollection was that Dest seemed to have trouble getting going with KDLF. But Konrad seems like he is a completely different player now. It would be incredible to watch unfold that is for sure.

    Based on new FIFA rule, is it possible Dest switch back to Netherlands?

    Yes, you could see they had moves but they didn't combine as well as they should. Remember KDLF was only 17 and he got pulled in every game.

    I think he’d had to go “capless” for 3 years and nothing has really changed in his situation for him to want to do that. He was a huge prospect then as well, with several clubs rumored to be after him.

    I know Barca is a hot mess, but I feel he is more likely to play there
