Max Meyer, Emil Forsberg, Lucas Moura, Julian Brandt, to mention a few.
other options Africans: Rihad Mahrez,
I'm not a scout neither is footy my full time job, my point is the clubs scouting network would probably be a ble to come up with better options.
For the 2nd point about him being African, it isn't discriminatory but just to point out that where players come from affect the price tag - English players are usually more expensive than players from other regions with equal ability. So hence another reason why he shouldn't be that expensive.
For my 1st point, yes we were dallying over the transfer just like we have been doing over this one when Jose called him and he joined Chelsea.
But to close this out, I don't have any issue with Salah, I think he will do well here. My comment only focused on the amount we are paying.
Same way I wouldn't buy VVD for 70 million.
but can we get them? brandt is going to stay at Leverkusen, pretty sure that i have seen articles linking us with and then being rebuffed because he wants to/ or leverkusen dont want to sell.
Meyer is 20/21, and he wont be cheap. with prices nowdays. he is going to be easily 40 mil. btw he is a attacking midfielder and we bought Salah to be a winger. so cou can drop to mid.
LEipzig dont want to sell us Nabi Keita, why do you think they are going to sell us Forsberg?
Havent read any transfer articles on Lucas Moura, so cant say anything about him. I like Mahrez but people again will say that he is african and he wont be cheap either becuase he plays for a ENglish team.
Salah with the experience that he have, ability, stats and the prices being thrown around. 35mil is pretty good deal imo. No transfer is risk free and this one looks promsing on the paper
