Thatâs a silly take
The club did itâs due diligence. Caecido said he was interested in joining us thatâs why we bid in the first place
We will never know of course but the reports were that we got assurances from one of his ârepresentativesâ that he would join us.
What I believe that really means is, his agent wanted a much higher fee and knew if we bid high, Chelsea would come in ultimately higher and the agents cut would be huge.
So we got played a bit and now weâve ended up with no one (at this time). So much for JWH coming over to go toe to toe with Boehly. So much for FFP meaning anything whatsoever.
Praying that our transfer people have some sort of plan that actually involves buying a couple players and not an excuse weâve all heard before âwe tried but we just couldnât get the deal done, when Thiago and Bajcetic are healthy they will be like new signingsâ
That one point doesnât feel as ok now as it did a few hours ago.
