Barcelona's interested in bringing in Ferland Mendy in the summer according to Aguilar. Not a surprise, they need a rotational LB option at the moment.

I still don't understand why Juventus didn't try sign and transfer in Jan, when they clearly need a good midfielder. He would be an automatic starter.

Translation: Deulofeu can come back to the squad and Guardiola can come back to manage the B team while Xavi manages the first team.

While Maddison is definitely no where near as good as Eriksen, still a very good player that would probably do pretty well in that position.

Sadly Spurs are good at targeting the exact players they need to replace another one. Maddison is amazing and he would be a great replacement to Eriksen.

I agree. I think Bruno Fernandes is another one to keep an eye on. He would be a very good replacement for Eriksen and probably would be a little cheaper.
I like Maddison, but he should replace Lamela and not Eriksen.
The only player I could see replacing Eriksen one for one from day one would be Fekir. Isco would also make sense of course if Eriksen moves to Madrid.
Will be sad to see Eriksen go, but at least Spurs are in a position to attract a good replacement these days.

Thought Liverpool were gunna go hard after him. Maybe they have their eyes elsewhere.

It's more of a statement of why more players should follow Ramsey's footsteps. He's not the first, just the latest example of players forcing free agency and getting more money because of it.

Because they don't have to pay the transfer fee, they are still spending about the same amount on him as they would if they paid a transfer fee for someone else along with normal wages. This always happens when a decent player leaves at the end of a contract.
What I don’t get there would hardly be a massive bidding war for Ramsey - so why go that far?
83m for Ramsey over four years (disregarding inflation). That is not a cheap deal for Juventus. In other words I don’t believe the figure.

Yeah, I don't think that 400k number is right, but no doubt he'll get more than he would've if a club paid a transfer fee for him.

Probably the difference in gross vs net. England and Italy report wages differently.
Sounds like someone heard 250k and assumed it was net - which got them to 400k gross?
