    Guess we found our LB/LCB hybrid then, will have to trust the scouts here haven’t heard much of him

  2. If there is a LB in the world that fits our new system perfectly. Its this guy. Will see if he can adapt to the Premier League but he was brought up by Sporting in Portugal.

    Wait what…..!!? Who’s this guy…

    Anyone with Portuguese background

  4. I have nothing of substance to contribute, but he was a beast for me in career mode if that counts

  5. At least perfect prize point,

    This is where you want to be if you want to compliment cucurella/colwill/badiashile in that lb/lcb inverted fullback space.

    Getting a 45m player didnt make sense

    He’s got the Costa aging mechanics where he looks like he’s in his 40s but he’s actually in his 20s

  7. It’s like we asked Basel who they replaced Califiori with. Straight to the source.

  8. “Key detail: #CFC see him playing as left back, centre back and midfielder.” -Fab

    I’ve come up with a funny drinking game: I’m gonna show you a picture of a random player you’ve never heard about and you will have to guess whether he’s a Chelsea player.

    Chelsea is like me in career mode at this point.

    “I know this man might never play in my team, but dam this is gonna be some great profit”

  11. I think this is why we don’t push the Calafiori deal. They share a lot of similar attributes: left footed, can play in LB/LCB role, good passing ability (at least what I’ve seen from youtube). The difference is Renato can also play DM

  12. I know zilch about him. Hopefully he is good.

    Best thing though is how quiet it was done, I want us to move like that.

    This could also be a loan signing for Strasbourg, as he fills the two main needs they have. But from wording looks like it’s for us. Let’s see.

  13. Out of nowhere. I hope we take this approach with all our transfer business instead of the constant briefings like with Olise. All for this signing and by the looks of it, fits perfectly into that LCB role to tuck into midfield.

    These are the ones I like, no bullshit no pr just get it done and ready to go.

  15. Guess this means Calafiori to Arsenal, don’t know much about this kid but hopefully it works out

  16. Never heard of this dude. But if that’s his face the only thing 2003 born about him is his kid.

  17. he looks like Ichiban Kasuga if the post jail hair stylist did their job well
