Forsell for Lucio?

panicfc · Oct 7, 2003

Sky Sports is reporting that BL.04 will offer Lucio in the summer for Mikell Forsell at Christmas. I assume we'll get some more money as well.

I like Forsell, but can we afford to lose Lucio.

Weeks ago I already heard that Bayer wanted Forssell (just before Chelsea loaned him to Birmingham) and offered Lucio already for this winter.

I thought you had mentioned it before.

Does this mean Neuville could be on way out.

From the news:

Kohler: "We are still in contact with Forssell"

Kaenzig: "We don't plan four months ahead. Forssell is an old topic and unrealistic at the moment... Chelsea belongs to the teams, who want Lucio. We don't intend to sell him in the winter break though. Anyone, who is interested in Lucio, has to know that he is a world class player."

Forsell and £8 Million for Lucio and its a deal.

I don't think a swap deal is beneficial to Bayer.
Forsell is good but not that great
