23 - Jules Koundé

At most 50-60m. Don't think we can get much more than that. But I suspect he is another one of those who won't want to leave.

50-60m is the realistic price.

In modern market, nothing is realistic.

Kounde goes 70-80m easily.

He is not a bad fullback. He can be very reliable and useful for a team with different playstyle
 
Would sell without looking twice.

By far our worst player in first 11.

Give me Ratiu as backup, we need just someone who can stup counters and pass the ball to Yamal.

There is no world in which Kounde is more useful then Ratiu on RB position.

Kounde gets overruned by Lookman, Vini with ease, Ratiu is proven poision for Vini.

5 years of expirience in La Liga, really decent player to have.
 
You want to improve the team by replacing Kounde with Ratiu? That's hilarious. That's a guaranteed way to fuck up the squad even more.

If you sell Kounde for say 70m, which is the right sum, a big portion of that needs to be invested into signing a top fullback.

Ratiu as backup.

We can play Cancelo on right side.

Massive wage, always have injuries, not RB, slow, out of form...

And could be sold easily.

Cancelo on Yamal's side? With his defending? No chance.

If you sell Kounde, signing a top RB who is quality defensively becomes obligatory.

We now have CB as the only absolute must sign position for the first 11. If we sell Kounde, we will need CB + RB requiring big money. Selling Kounde for a big fee makes sense if you actually have a good plan for who to buy and strengthen the team on CB and RB.

Not a good position for us, because the club seems clueless about defensive signings. You better hope the story about Bastoni is media bullshit, because I see no promising rumors that would help fix the defense.

Mark Pubill for 16m would have been a bargain for us, and a good option. We need options like that. Good players, with good physical abilities, nice age, and on the cheaper side.

I hope we are shrewd enough to sell him.

His time is up for us. Guys been shit this whole season. Anything above 50m and we should run. Though I think EPL clubs might pay a lot higher.

And if we can sell, I think we should go straight away for Laimer. He is actually better than Kounde. Just give him Kounde's salary and see us cook on the right side.
People want a Top 3 RB, Konrad is the one to go for. He should be the ideal player to form a partnership with Yamal.

Actually kinda insane how much he and Balde have fallen off. I would gladly sell him for 60M.

Is it really?

Kounde and Balde always sucked. The former looked different beast at Sevilla, before he started to lift and become a pot smoking body builder. Balde rided on his superior pace in first seasons, but since injury it is gone and he has no other skills to compensate it.
 
Hey, Messi983. I've noticed you laugh a lot. While laughing is generally good for body and soul, the extreme rate you laugh for no reason at all is an early sign of dementia or other mental illness. Take care.

I don't think Cancelo proved anything more than what we knew about him from his first stint here. He is a technically superior in attack to both Balde and Kounde, but a terrible defender.

He's not the answer either.
 
He has been better in defense than Balde too. His tracking back and blocking has been fine, while Balde is nowhere to be seen and gets easily disbalanced by any half decent winger. Not the best defender obviously, but seem to have upped his game a bit in that field.
