UniFox21 Posted 8 August 2020 Posted 8 August 2020 20yr old French CB, played 8 times for Schalke last season. Not sure I believe it and assume we're chucked in due to the link with Trincao
lcfc sheff Posted 8 August 2020 Posted 8 August 2020 They get linked with our CB then we get linked with theirs ...
jeffschlupp Posted 8 August 2020 Posted 8 August 2020 Surprised they're actively wanting rid at a fairly low price, I thought he was highly rated? I wouldn't mind us taking him off their hands if it swung the deal to get us Trincao. We've been linked before I'm pretty sure. €60m for the pair?
North Leeds Fox Posted 8 August 2020 Posted 8 August 2020 Looked okay for schalke but nothing more than that. Highly rated though so definitely has room to improve and would be tough to look good playing for schalke at this present moment. Would be good as a third choice
StriderHiryu Posted 8 August 2020 Posted 8 August 2020 Are we becoming the new Everton in signing all of the Barcelona "rejects"? If we are going for the younger players that don't make it but have high potential, that's not a bad way to go. This guy was / is extremely highly rated and would certainly fit the profile of players we sign these days. Also here's an interesting article about him: https://www.bundesliga.com/en/bundesliga/news/who-is-jean-clair-todibo-schalke-s-new-loan-signing-from-barcelona-9293 2

moore_94 Posted 8 August 2020 Posted 8 August 2020 He had an okay half a season at Schalke, probably one of the only players that did relatively well in a very poor Schalke side I can't really see him being a player to come straight into the Main 11, more likely would come in as 3rd/4th choice with Benkovic So if he is part of a deal for Soyuncu, we would still need another first team quality centre back to come in

I honestly don't think I'd want to swap Soyuncu for those two players. I think Cags could be destined to be one of the best CBs on the planet. He could either be irreplaceable or worth really silly money in a couple of years. I reckon we'd be much better off selling Chilwell to fund both these signings if we really wanted them. I don't think we should be entertaining the idea of selling Soyuncu this season. 2 3
Tielemans63 Posted 8 August 2020 Posted 8 August 2020 Jean-Clair? A man with two girl's names? Forget it. 2

Yeh I agree, I dont really want us to sell Soyuncu. Chilwell is replaceable but not sure we could get a centre back as good as Cags. The partnership hes formed with Evans has been superb 2

It would be easy to think defensively we were much poorer after Chistmas, but i think up to lockdown we weren't actually that bad and it could be attributed to being without Ndidi..the last half a dozen games were poor though and there was a weakness but overall Evans and Soyuncu as a partnership was pretty good, even for a miserable git like yourself. 5 6
s11nny Posted 9 August 2020 Posted 9 August 2020 (edited) This guy looked awful in the couple games I saw him play for Schalke. He is most definitely a Barca reject hence why Barca are keen to sell. He is not going to be a future star otherwise Barca would be trying to raise more money off a sale. Even Everton fans don’t want him Edited 9 August 2020 by s11nny 1

Even Everton fans don’t want him Just looked at his career and he played 10 games for Toulouse before moving to Barcelona on a Bosman. A year later they've loaned him out to Schalke who also don't want to buy him after seeing him for 6 months. It looks like the classic case of Barcelona snapping up a player with potential for free, realising he's below their level then trying to make a few quid turning him over for a big profit as people will pay the "Barcelona tax". He looks very much one to avoid by his profile. 1

Mina has done well for Everton this season, been one of the reasons Holgate has shone.
