Everything has gone quiet on the transfer front since Jota's passing. Rumours that Diaz and Konate are looking for moves remain worrying and I thought we'd basically closed the Guehi deal which looks not to be the case. Elliot remains up in the air.

Pre-season training has started so would be good to sort these loose ends out.

Well obviously we will need at least a striker to replace Jota, if not Diaz and Nunez as well. That’s potentially three strikes so I’d say Diaz will have to stay now and we need to try to replace Nunez.

Yup few signings needed, with Konate being a d1k we will need push for a CB.

To be fair to Konate he’s not on much comparatively. He makes 70k per week which is less than Tsimikas, Bradley and Gomez. He deserves more as he has become a solid part of the team but probably not as much as the 200k he’s reportedly asking for. He knows the system and he’s a big, strong and fast defender. When VVD was injured and he became the primary defender he did not hold the line as well as Virgil as a lot of offsides were going against us but he has improved and should be invested in. Having said that if he continues to be unreasonable then we need to sell now rather than January for less.

I don't understand why so many first team members want to leave when the team is at the peak of it's powers and we've just bought in 3 great additions? Crazy.

I agree, if we get the rest of the window right we potentially could be in for one hell of a season, start of a new era.

Madrid have once again caused friction in the camp. Konate has 2 options, sign a new contract, or Sit on the bench all season and ruin his chances of making the World cup squad. Madrid don't want him that much if they're only willing to offer £17m!! They just want another freebie.

As for Diaz he's just been flirting with a move for the last 2 seasons now..

Thing is they only want to leave for the "big clubs" but just like Madrid.. Bayern have got him to hand in a transfer request, and then lowballed us with a ***** offer. Now he's unsettled aswell!!

I'm sorry mate, what are you talking about? Have Madrid given an offer for Konate? And who's handed in a transfer request? I've not come across any of this.
