Sigh. I'm not happy with those numbers. Unless we decided to go full Italian and spread it out over 20 years, I think this is an overpay even disregarding the fact that Chelsea need to sell.
Yeah I hope Kai doesn't suffer the Pepe effect where the price tag hangs over him like a dark cloud.
I mean, isn't this pricetag lower than what Chelsea bought him for?
True, but I think itβs still more than expected given his time at Chelsea. Hopefully weβll get a similar proportion back when we come to sell Pepe..
I've been trying to be less of a pessimist recently, but... we won't. We'll be lucky to see 20M for him. His wages are just ridiculous for a) the clubs that might take a chance on him and b) his skill level.
