Am I seeing reports that we have an agreement in place to sign Goretzka this Jan??
// trying not to get excited
I don't know how accurate that ['done deal'] is Vicks but with Can's departure a near certainty, it would be really F***ing daft not to be looking at someone.
Goretzka, like Emre Can, will be free to anyone interested and that, along with potential profit margin (sell on) and our 'One In, One Out' approach to "success" makes him an ideal candidate. 😊
Their business plan - bring him in, watch him near his peak and move him on to a big club, hopefully for a huge profit.
Their football plan - him helping us win something would be preferable but not a necessity.
It's crazy that, 13 or 14 windows after these self-proclaimed "winners" arrived, we are still talking about building with free transfers. Or... maybe it's not - think about it. 😉
