New Mehmet Dalman interview

Re: New Mehmet Dalman interview

"When we paid the first instalment, of £7.2m including interest, Vincent tried to send the money from Malaysia, but by the time the money was released, it took us past the 30 days." Very careless/costly.

It's just bullshit.

The Court of Arbitration for Sport announced they had dismissed City's appeal on 26/08/22. City released a statement on the same day saying the club had no intention of paying Nantes. It was then reported on 10/01/23 that City had decided to pay the fee and were hoping to have the FIFA embargo lifted.

Yes a 24 or 72 hour wait fair enough.

But if what dalman is saying there is correct tan sent the money before 26/09/22?

So by 10/01/23 the money had been sent over 3 months ago?

This is interesting too:
"Apart from one transfer, all the other transfers are waiting for the new manager because the last thing I want to do is bring four or five players in that the new manager won’t want. I have one I’m trying to get over the line at the moment, regardless of the manager."

Who can they be trying to bring in that they want regardless of what the manager wants?

I assumed it’s Kaba. No idea though obviously.

Could be him. You can see why they might have decided he'd be an asset to anyone managing us.

Re: New Mehmet Dalman interview

Cant be Kaba hes under contract im sure they could get a fee for him.

Scott Twine of Burnley was reported to be part of the package in the sale of Tans Belgian club.

Could it be a loan involving no fee but with a commitment to buy at the end of 2023/24 by which time, all that embargo stuff will be over we promise.

Very careless/costly.

This sounds eerily similar to the we thought he was insured scenario

Didn't they do the same thing with Kaba and Lamouchi in January?

That was all Mehmet's deal, Lamouchi had no idea who he was.

If that is comes off, would be a great start to the window. Clever player and a phenomenal free kick taker.

Re: New Mehmet Dalman interview

Opens the lid a little on the current goings on.

No chemistry between Tan and Lamouchi, Pre-season camps and friendlies arranged (but not revealed), one transfer done already before the new manager came in?, still can't pay fees for players and the reasons why

Re: New Mehmet Dalman interview

This is how rumours start :hehe:

There’s more chance we will sign Prince Andrew than Nelson. JRH on CCMB says the “player materials” from Burnley is Scott Twine
