Hector, on the other hand has NEVER played for Chelsea, is in the last year of his contract and are supposedly asking for 5mill. It just wouldn’t make sense, them asking for £5m, when they have let equivalent players move this summer for considerably less. Factor in the figure they want for Luiz, a serial winner, and it makes even less sense. Unless of course, we’ve upset them with some ridiculous offer, that has annoyed them A bit like Norwich did to us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take £3m and stop being pedantic We need you in the negotiating room. That would have gone down a treat 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owlZfan84 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 It's being common knowledge Chelsea are out to make a profit on Hector - which is just crazy. Back DC 100% here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plonk Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Surely, just for once, things are stacked in our favour with this one. Doesn’t seem anyone else is in for him/ he wants to go anywhere else. Come 5pm his value plummets as he can sign a pre contract in the next window and leave for next to nothing. Or run down his last year. Either way Chelsea will lose out if they don’t sell today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But 2 things are very clear. - He's desperate to come here, over any other club. - No club is going to pay 5mill for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owlZfan84 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 (edited) I think we'll see DC stick to his guns, and the deal gets done later on today. Chelsea do themselves absolutely no favours whatsoever by not selling Hector before 5pm today. But it'll go down to the wire.

Womble Owl Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 They've just sold David Luiz to arsenal for £8m, and they want £5m for hector 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minton Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Chelsea want to make a profit, clubs aren't taking the bait. My view is wait until January, see how Borner has settled in and then make a bid. Potentially even wait until he is available on a free in the summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarn owl Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Personal terms have apparently already been done. So once fee is agreed, then surely will be quick. Can't he come up for a medical and get all the forms ready and then include fee once fully agreed? stick to your guns though Chansiri and pay what he is worth. Which is not 5 million. We can cope without him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owlinexile Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 I would rather spend £7million on McKenna than £5million on Hector. But I would rather spend £2million on Hector than £7million on McKenna. It's all about resaleability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't sign a pre-contract agreement with players in the same nation until 3 months before the end of their contract, only teams from a foreign nation can sign players with 6 months to go.

OxonOwl Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 As soon as the deadline comes, Hector's value drops. They might as well let him go at the last minute and save the wages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maddogbob Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 As ive said before, they must have made money on him via loan fees. Might be a case of us bridging the gap. Much like norwich and the Rhodes situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
