Indigo Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Al-Nassr only owe a few hundred thousand to be fair, so I'd imagine it's something they'll resolve quickly so they can proceed to drop millions on more players. Hopefully folk are correct that his preference is to play in the Premier League, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stewiek2 Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 (edited) Does he have a release clause at all? I wonder if we low-balled knowing Bayer want above so we'll meet half way ie at the clause. Edited July 14, 2023 by stewiek2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 I really want this signing. Pace is such a huge asset to have in this league. Imagine him and Ramsay either side. Scary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted July 14, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted July 14, 2023 Hoping this signing will go someway to helping Bailey too but not feeling extremely confident about that. One thing that strikes me from the videos i've seen of Diaby (and Bailey tbf) is that there seems to be loads of space behind the defence in the German league. Not sure if that's due to teams generally playing a high line or losing the ball in transitions more. Don't watch enough of it to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichW Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 If Diaby is interested in a move to Saudi Arabia then it's not really a player I'd want at Villa. I think the interest is being used to get Villa to speed up their bidding tbh. Wouldn't be surprised if the deal is agreed over the weekend ready for when they fly out to USA. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Equally, Romano has said he's agreed a deal with us. So it's all really just conjecture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulMcGrath_5 Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Would be a fantastic signing--confident we can get this one over the line. The Saudi stuff doesn't really worry me given the player has given us "the green light". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s going to become the norm now, a Saudi side’s name will be dropped in to either by the selling club to help drive the price up or the media trying to add a bit of drama. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
