Would've been £25M last season
Should've signed him then, sounds like a bargain.
From watching Chelsea fan YouTube channels, it looks like we actually have made a good deal. They're all pretty angry at him leaving

Might be quite the force alongside Mason Mount!

He is the Swiss lad who grabbed a lot of headlines last season with his Europa League performances for Freiburg
Sounds like Villa may have swooped in the last minute and stolen him away

Sporting Lisbon captain Morten Hjulmand to Atletico for €45M.

One of the signings of the summer IMO

Would be a good signing this - Forest set to increase their offer to Spurs for Lucas Bergvall to £45m.

Morgan Rogers to Chelsea £117m. Can add that to Anderson being a £120m player.

I don't really know what players are worth any more. You'd think £100m+ players would be top 10 - 20 in the world; the sort you expect to help you win a Champions League final. For example when Madrid signed a 20 year old Bellingham. Rogers and Anderson are good players, but they're not at that level. But clearly that's where the market is at.

But he was meant for the Arse.

Players this summer are going for stupid prices, seems every PL purchase is at least £80m. But there’s always an idiot who’ll pay it :lol:

Nice to see Chelsea really starting to make inroads on their financial mess though.

For context, it's only 18 months since Kvicha Kvaratskelia joined PSG for €70m. He's hit new heights with them so maybe comparing Anderson and Rogers to the player he is now isn't completely fair, but he was highly regarded and had been playing well for Napoli for years. So they definitely seem overpriced compared to that.

'greed! Bonkers valuations. Starting to think INEOS may have had a good summer, signing two (2) midfielders for £85M

I take it Enzo is off then to RM?

Otherwise please explain how a team already on the edge of financial meltdown and sanctions with no European football can be allowed to spend this idiot sum, not to mention the idiot wages they would have put him on.

Please can we have the game back.

In light of the information and statements that have emerged in recent days regarding an alleged interest from Real Madrid C. F. in the player Enzo Fernández, the club wishes to state that it has not made any efforts, either directly or indirectly, aimed at signing the aforementioned player and, furthermore, has no intention of pursuing such an operation.

Real Madrid wishes to express its utmost respect for Enzo Fernández, a great footballer whose career and quality are widely recognized, as well as for Chelsea FC, a club with which it maintains an excellent institutional relationship.

Precisely out of respect for an institution like Chelsea FC and the principles of institutional loyalty that have always guided Real Madrid's actions, the club considers it necessary to categorically deny these speculations, which are unfounded and do not reflect reality.

Real Madrid regrets that, despite the clarity of the facts and the absence of any action by the club, information continues to be disseminated that does not correspond to reality and only serves to create confusion among fans and unnecessarily harm the entities and individuals involved.
