So Yoro transfer fee is 62 ME plus 8 variables according to L'Equipe, Sky Sports, Atheltic, ESPN etc. I thought it was cose to 50 ME which PSG had offered in June, but no. Hazard crazy deal is not an outlier anymore with expiring contracts though Camavinga (30 M), Varane 35 ME in 2021 had brought back the market to earlier times.

It’s gonna be exciting to see Barca, Atletico and Madrid in a 3-way title chase.

 

🚨🆕 Been told, as things currently stand, Désiré #Doué is leaning towards a move to FC Bayern over PSG ✔️

That is his current priority. Bayern is still taking some time because initial sales need to be made. But an agreement has been reached with the player.

France beat Argentina 1-0 in Olympics QF.

Semis will be Spain vs Morocco and France vs Egypt.

 

Anyone knows what the fight was about at the end of the match?

 

Argentina and fights is like peanut butter and jelly

 

Not that the Olympics are of any importance to regular people, but it would still be amazing if Morocco could go all the way and win it in France. Very difficult task ahead with Spain however!

 

Guess Atlético will sell Samu if Alvarez joins?

I think Atlético will cash in on Samu if they get Alvarez. Probably why they are looking to spend 110 -120 ME on Sorloth + Alvarez.

🚨 JUST IN: On Samu Omorodion, it is important see what happens with Conor Gallagher, the relationship between clubs, Atleti already rejected important proposals from Chelsea for Samu. (@FabrizioRomano @WatchPlayback) #CFC

Seems like ever generation has a trash moment with that national team, I still remember Beckham incident, what we've seen last couple years in WC and Copa. All teams have players and moments but Argentina has been the shining star of cynical, pathetic, poor sportsmanship.

 

Real Sociedad sign Croatian midfielder Luka Sucic from Red Bull Salzburg for 10 ME.
