    I feel like any agent getting a 40%+ cut of a transfer fee is going to raise some red flags.

    From what I understand, they are looking into whether or not Juve violated third-party ownership rules.

    So, sell him and get something. Releasing him makes no sense.

    how much of that Chelsea number are inflated fees so Roman can launder money through the club?

    Chelsea are a breakeven club now. Rubles stopped flowing a few years back when it comes to transfer fees. Still pay crazy wages.

    You get the right agents to facilitate ridiculous transfers to China and you get to spend more. Arsene just needs to play the game better.

    Congrats on the legions of Egyptian fans that will now inundate every Liverpool social media page.

    "Having forced English side Chelsea to create an Arabic Facebook page to stem a tide of Mohamed Salah-linked posts, Egyptian fans may soon force Italy's Fiorentina to follow suit after the Egyptian forward was signed on a six-month loan deal.

    Salah’s loyal fanbase flooded the Italian club’s official Facebook page with posts about the 22-year-old during the past few days, leaving their comments on every single post, including one that celebrated the birthday of club legend and former Argentinean forward Gabriel Batistuta.

    "Welcome to Mohamed Salah's Facebook page!" commented one Egyptian user, addressing Fiorentina's Italian supporters.

    Many Italian fans vented their frustration after the page was filled with posts in Arabic, but sarcastic comments by Egyptian fans still dominate the page, which has more than 1 million likes after the arrival of Salah.

    "You only won tonight because you signed Salah. You are a very lucky team," another user wrote in Arabic after Fiorentina defeated AS Roma 2-0 in the Italian Cup quarter-final on Tuesday.

    Last year Chelsea urged Egyptian fans to post their comments on the Arabic version of their page,but their pleas fell on deaf ears, prompting the Blues to hide specific posts from Egypt.

    Several Egyptian fans gave the recipes for famous local dishes in their comments, calling on Fiorentina to cook Salah's favourite food.

    Although Fiorentina warmly welcomed the arrival of Salah on their page, it remains to be seen whether they will be able to bear the flood of Egyptian comments on every single post.

    Salah’s fans, however, remain upbeat. "We bring luck to any page we visit," wrote one Egyptian user.

    UCL 12 years ago papered over some cracks, but that is the best kind of paper you can get. I hope all the English teams do well in Europe this season.

    Arsenal bidding for Lacazette pretty much shows that they aren't planning on getting Mbappe, can't see them trying to purchase both.

    sounds like they're going to have to overpay for Laca too. Lyon is playing hardball.

    Lacazette needs to just come out and push for a move if he really wants a new challenge. Lyon have been playing hardball over him for the past 12 years. I know the Atletico thing was said to be basically done, maybe he waits until January and goes there if nothing is worked out this summer.

    The Atletico thing was done. Lyon was happy with the move. Since then, they've buckled down... thats why they got a higher price for Tolisso than most were expecting. They're just stingy...its smart.

    I know all about a stingy approach to the transfer market as a Spurs fan, definitely agree it is smart from the club's perspective. From the player's perspective if Lacazette really wants to move this summer he may have to start making a few waves to try and force something through. He's been in the shop window for years.
