Obvious sign & trade.

looool.
Sviatchenko to Celtic confirmed.
United has proposed 28M€ for Rabiot. Rejected by Paris.
Martial's transfer contact has been leaked. 50M€ is in Monaco's pocket and 20m€ more should get there soon. The last 10M€ are a long shot (top 3 in Ballon d'Or voting).
Pogba will go to Barça... and it's gonna be expensive
In other Hoffenheim news; the club are said to be closing in on a move for Leicester's Kramaric. Their next attempt to spark that attacking unit which has been so dreadful this season, now that Volland must do it without his partner in crime. If their midfield gains some coherency (aka Amiri takes over the 10) and Kramaric settles in much better than Vargas has, this might just be a good way to get both club and player on track.
Why shouldn't Kruse count; he's the ideal modern german striker? Regardless, if they did pull off Embolo, Didavi & Sule for next season; with Kolasinac lined up to replace RR whenever that day comes; VFL could be a really fun team to watch that can hang with an Ancelotti coached Bayern and y'all.
On BVB; isn't the report going around 13M+Ramos for Malli? He'd be good, but I'm still hoping you guys can make Yarmolenko happen and nab Ziyech to push Shinji at the 10.
...if not y'all, I'd enjoy watching Ziyech join Volland, Ochs, Amiri, Kramaric, Schmid, and Vargas, with Hoppenheim. That could be a fun set of attacking talents.
I was under the impression that Kruse usually played more as a creative midfielder than a striker at Wolfsburg. When I watched them he was. Anyway, he and Embolo are very different kinds of players and could complement each other well.
There are different reports regarding Malli. Ramos+13M is too much, even if Ramos wants to leave. It's possible the inflated winter price will scare Zorc away from Malli like it did from Yarmolenko. Maybe they're waiting to see if Pulisic can already step in as a backup player. He certainly looks really good in friendlies. The question is whether he is ready to handle the physical intensity of a competitive senior match. They need to make at least one signing this window I think.
He did when they played Dost, it's more fluid now; but he's still doing exactly what he did with Gladbach, where he was called a striker...and what he should be doing for the NT if Jogi weren't Jogi...but yes Embolo would be more of a threat to Schurrle's PT than Kruse's. As Max is such a smart and cultured forward that he serves a different role in their attacks than do the more physical/direct Schurrle & Embolo. Would love to see Favre take over that team whenever Hecking is replaced.
I wish Zorc had more ambition. Even if Pulisic is ready to step in, you should buy Yarmolenko and Ziyech both...unless the Gotze rumors have any actual merit and you're saving money for that one...and even then Ramos+13M for Malli is a reasonable offer for a Miki-clone in the winter market who'd leave you with money and room for Mario. Yarmolenko could provide cover for Auba, like Reus; and Ziyech would give you someone who can play the 10 when Shinji's off or needs a rest. With those two buys I'd trust your depth to win silverware this season; but as is things are very thin in the attack, even if Pulisic is ready.
