He has had a stand out 2 seasons for Atalanta and was impressive in the friendly against us. He's predominantly a right back, but can also play left back too. IMO had we lost Ricardo, he would have been the perfect replacement, though as a replacement for Chilwell I am not so sure as I don't think he is naturally left footed. https://www.whoscored.com/Players/141169/Show/Timothy-Castagne Anyone from Atalanta would be a great signing. They play quite a similar style to us and under Gasperini have shown that with the right coaching, even a smaller / underrated team can produce on the biggest stage of them all. Rosens their left back I think would be a more realistic signing for us given the Chilwell / Fuchs situation, but players like Pasalic, Zapata, Muriel would all be good pickups. Ilicic and Papu Gomez are their star turns of course, but both are the wrong side of 30, even if I think both are truly super footballers. Overall though Castagne I think would be a brilliant signing for any Premier League team. Reliable, flexible, speaks English and still quite young. If his first highlight in that vid is a tap in... then i am not interested!!!! geesh, that even worth showcasing ffs.. 1
sdb Posted 11 June 2020 Posted 11 June 2020 If he can play either side, and centre back in a 3, then he sounds ideal!

The whole world smiles Posted 11 June 2020 Posted 11 June 2020 I wouldn't get too worried about left side/right side issue as we have James Justin who can play either side too. In fact I seem to remember hearing that at luton Justin was mainly used at left back. So assuming Chillwell is on his way, that would leave us with one world class right back and two exciting prospects who can play either side. And one aging yet still very competent (based on this season) left back. 2

The article also goes on to say that his representatives will talk to the three managers PSG, Jose and Brendan, then make up their minds as to where he ends up. 🤷🏻♂️ I think this is a quite exciting Link tbf

Especially as Meunier has gone to Dortmund on a free, like for like replacement really. If it means they don't go for Ricardo, that is a price I think we are all willing to pay! He had been heavily linked with them pre-injury.

He has been outstanding this season, I do worry that we aren’t as good as them so will spend loads more games on the back foot where as Atalanta are 1000 MPH all out attack or nothing.
