Devonfox1884 Posted 27 July 2022 Share Posted 27 July 2022 £65m + Colwill as a minimum. Don’t think there’s a chance he leaves this window anyway to be honest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps we could do a suicide double and buy Smeli Ali to play alongside him? Does Barkley hide other players' boots in the dressing room?

Nalis Posted 27 July 2022 Share Posted 27 July 2022 (edited) 1 hour ago, Col city fan said: Given how the club has been going in the last year or two, if I was little Wes I’d be off like a shot tbf. We seem to be at the end of the golden era, whilst Chelsea are building up again under the new owner. That said, if we do lose Fofana and don’t replace him with quality very quickly, our season is effectively over in terms of doing anything very much at all. Fofana is that important to the club. Given what was said this week about Barnes.. that we just shouldn’t sell him for however much money, I’d take that argument even further when we’re talking about Fofana. He is one player we must not sell, 100 million or no 100 million I see it a little differently, if I was in his position I'd stay for a season and hold out for a team a level above like Man City/Liverpool or one of Real/Bayern/Barca (if they still have magic money trees) as he will be a level above Chelsea in my view.

Popular Post Fear Of The Fox Posted 27 July 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 27 July 2022 We've sold a WW2 tanker for nearly 80m and some of our fans are questioning the value of a player that has all the talent to become the world's best CB? 100m+ please. Unless we want to become the next Palace. Even if we sell him for 100m there's trouble ahead. There are no decent CBs to fill the gap. Even in Football Manager. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or just move to Chelsea, get a huge signing on fee, develop further and then get another huge signing on fee when he makes his ‘big move’ to Real Madrid or PSG?

I suppose only time will tell whether Chelsea's new owners are going to splash the cash as much as Abramovich. Probably those days are gone.

Micky Posted 27 July 2022 Share Posted 27 July 2022 I think we might as well close the thread. He's not going this summer as nobody will pay the insane asking price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supergray22 Posted 27 July 2022 Share Posted 27 July 2022 Unless he really wants to go I’d try to keep him if at all possible. He was on everyone’s untouchable list. Fofana is such a key player for us and imagine his worth in a couple of years time. He is guaranteed a place here and is loved by all the fans. Not for sale.

smudger63 Posted 27 July 2022 Share Posted 27 July 2022 According to Ben Jacobs (yes i know) Fofana has just liked a tweet saying 70 million to Chelsea minimum, if true, then this is where it begins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

st albans fox Posted 27 July 2022 Share Posted 27 July 2022 There is only one issue here for me and that’s his injury last summer. It’s an experience which illustrates to him how tenuous his job could be and that opportunities need to be taken when they arise …… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be at least £90m due to sell ons and IF he did go I think it will be a black day at this point as we will have rolled over too early he has a contract to 2027 so he should be here for at least another season and if he has a full season he will be worth at least £90m maybe even more plus quality young centre half’s are rare and he is potentially the best in the world !!
