Transfer Thread Summer 2019

Has anyone been able to figure out why Luiz was so desperate to join Arsenal? Seems a really bizarre move for the player or Chelsea to want to do.

£8m too, he was £50m not long ago. Very odd.

I see on the BBC that Dennis Praet has gone to Leicester from Sampdoria. He was one we were linked with a while back. 

During the glorious (!) summer of Sherwood!

He was left on the bench for their last friendly (Lampard played Zouma and Christensen) and wasn't happy apparently. Guess he feels he won't be part of Lampard's plans as a first choice so dosen't want to spend season bench warming and gets to still live in London (I read he actually commuted a lot on eurostar when he played for PSG).

I think Arsenal offered him a two year deal which played a part. Chelsea have a policy of only offering a year contract at a time to those 30 and over.

Thats funny, cos under Wenger Arsenal lost a lot of players because of that exact policy!

I was trying to remember how long ago that was and who the manager was. I think my brain was blocking that one out. Thanks for reminding me! 😥😀

Luiz signed a new contract to 2021 in May at Chelsea. 

I can only assume once Lampard came in he was told he wasn't in his plans.

N'Zonzi to Roma was such a weird transfer. The only role he could suit was DDR's and when DDR moves on they loan him out. Bizzare. 

Deutsche Demokratische Republik?
