Someone told me a couple of years ago that Konsa had a flat in the same block as them, in Sutton. Maybe it's a holiday cottage.

Now saliba is out for circa 4 months, fully expect arsenal to low ball and bid for Konsa. He still lives in London and commutes in so I’m sure he will want the move (truth be told)

Anything around £55m and I reckon it gets done - just depends whether Arsenal are willing to go that far

Notwithstanding my 100% faith in Unai we are  verging into too big of a rebuild if we allow this to happen.

Hoping garnacho isnt the last attacking player we bring in. If so cant see us finishing higher than 7th

Right, now that we've got Alejandro the Great, who's next?

Estupinan the Perv!

That's got the makings of a terrific song for him.
As well as a medical, has anyone checked how many offenders' registers he might be on?

That's got the makings of a terrific song for him.

At the age of nineteen
He became the Mancunian King
But he swore to be free of Ruben Amorim
Signed by Emery
In 2026 A.D.
He utterly beat the armies of PSG

Alejandrio the Great
His name struck fear into hearts of men
Alejandro the Great
Became a legend amongst mortal men....

Thank you Homer

I think we need to hold on to Konsa this summer at all costs, even if that means getting a much reduced value for him next summer, due to the other players that have now left.  Which contradicts what I said on the Konsa thread the other week!! I guess the bean counters might see it differently. But it would be just too much of a disruption.  No more "big" outs please Villa!!!

Beautiful! Maybe beyond the bounds of the Holte choir, though, especially after a few pints!

Saw this on ESPN, but can't find anything from Romano himself after literally 15 seconds of looking;

"Manchester United and Aston Villa are interested in Everton winger Iliman Ndiaye, says Fabrizio Romano. Both clubs have reportedly made contact with the Toffees regarding a move for the 26-year-old, but United are struggling to make progress as they aren't able to do anything before offloading winger Marcus Rashford. Previous reports have indicated that an offer worth in the region of £70 million could be required to land Ndiaye, who scored six goals and provided three assists in 32 Premier League matches last season."

I rate him but to blow nearly all of the Rogers money (net of Boro fee) seems a bit much.
