£18m plus add ons?
That would be a major statement by the club, and a better (if much more expensive) option than Oumar Niasse from Everton, or any of the other 'linked' names.

£18m plus add ons?

He wasn't even starting at Nantes before their new manager came in, so I'm not sure if that's good or bad. Either way, an article about him:
https://www.theguardian.com/football...i-aguero-messi
He sounds like someone that would suit our system. Willingness to play out of position, plays with his back to goal, hard working and a focal point.
Fábio is with Sala at Nantes (along with 5 more Brazilians). Presumably he has been complimentary about the club and the city.
Hold on tight this is our make or break moment .
Someone tell the lad if he hears a moan, as he skys his first opportunity, it's only the sound of fans having a tight poo.

Referring to the Sala negotiations with Nantes, he said: "It’s very very difficult. I thought we agreed a fee with a club but then they came back and put another couple of million on top.
"If he’s coming over, it won’t be for 20 million. He was one of the players.

January plans
“We’ve looked at so many now, I’m almost dizzy. It’s very very difficult. I thought we agreed a fee with a club but then they came back and put another couple of million on top. We’re not going to get held to ransom. If that’s the case, we’ll stick to what we’ve got. I expect to bring two or three in, but it may not be our first choices. I’m not going to have a gun put to my head. I wouldn’t put that onto Vincent (Tan).”
Sala latest
“If he’s coming over, it won’t be for 20 million. He was one of the players [we’ve looked at].”
Niasse speculation
“They’re all mentioned, but at the moment I would imagine in Everton’s case they’ll probably wait until the end of the transfer window. We won’t be paying silly money for players. We’ll offer realistic offers and see how we go. We won’t be able to bring in players early doors, it might be at the end of the window. We’re mentioning names to the chairman, who’s working hard, and Ken Choo, but it’s not as straightforward as that. They realise how difficult it is, the January window.”
Disappointed on transfers?
“I’m disappointed. You want things to get done and it’s not always possible. There’s no blame on anybody. Teams when you look for players see the Premier League as an opportunity to put an extra zero on a player, but we’re not having that. Although it will be disappointing, we have to stick to certain principles. Even if I signed three really good players, it’ll be an uphill battle, trust me.”

If he signs the next few months may be our Sala days....
Think we need to be on or close to 20 points after the Spurs game to justify big money signings.
What I take from all this is we've made them a firm offer and maybe they are just trying it on for a few more euro's.Now,if they had any genuine interest from the other prem sides supposed to be looking at him then maybe they can play hard ball but as far as I can see theres nothing I can see.
Hope we dont get a Guerra situation ,yes i'll sign , but dont want to play straight away ,Ill pop over at season end see how your doing ,and then sulk
Just read on-line that he would be on more than 6 times the salary with us so if theres any truth in this he's probably telling Nantes he wants to go yesterday.
