It basically comes down to two things how much he wants to work with Emery, and the draw of the Premier League. I doubt it’ll happen but would be excellent.

Emery and PL will seal it.

PSG and Italian clubs interested. Can't see this one happening.

That’s shaken you I can tell. Believe in the power of Emery.

If it were to happen, he would probably be the biggest signing we’ve ever made. I hope I’m surprised but I doubt I will be

He’s going to attract a lot of interest. So it remains to be seen how convincing we have been as a club, not just Emery in trying to land him. Like Alemany it would shock me if he stayed at Real Madrid vs moving.

I can't get on board with any "its just good we're trying" stuff when it comes to big name signings (I actually know nothing about this player).  As far as I'm concerned, it's only good we're trying if we then 'get'.  I'd prefer not to know otherwise.

The club can't help rumours, of course.

Welcome to the 24 hour news cycle, social media and places like this. The club rarely ever comment until official or close to it. And best ignore anything as legitimate until specific football media with good reputations get involved. And even then nothing is guaranteed.

Absolutely.  Gotta fill the internet with stuff!

If we have the coin to make Kamara choose us over Atletico Madrid (even with Gerrard in charge) then we have the financial pull over pretty much every Italian club. PSG could offer bigger wages so then it's probably down to if he fancies the EPL or Ligue 1.

Might have had enough of being not a nailed on starter at clubs that like to buy show ponies every year, who knows? I imagine we're only pushing if we've had some encouragment that it's possible.

He appears to have a left foot like a traction engine.

Probably best we leave Lambert out of this one.

Reportedly (reliable Spanish source) there's a solid offer there which player is considering as he wants more playing time than he'll get at Madrid. Would imagine it would be the same at PSG so let's see how persuasive emery is

Reminds me of Harry Kewell.
