1. Agresti reporting the same

2. Hmm a high fee but good thing is if he dosen’t work out we don’t have to buy him so good deal, better than Bonaventura or Pereyra

3. At first I thought “wait, that tennis player?”

4. Soooo this looks like a typical ‘Giuntoli’ player. Is he any good though? I have never seen him playing.

5. Who said Don Luciano wasn’t informed anymore?

6. Saw him in Argentina team Racing. Very mobile and good technique. Was somewhat raw a couple of years ago.
   Played similar to Miretti, more offensive midfielder than ball winner.
   Hopefully he got more mature and with more muscles during his stint in England.
   Lot of potential and limited risk if loan with option to buy.

7. Obligation to buy for lower fee or option for higher. It’s safer to go with option almost in all cases

8. Wasn’t he a Tennis player or something?

9. Yep, Welcome new Platini.

10. Pretty high fee, I am guessing he will be in the first team? I wonder how he will even get playing time ahead of anybody on the current team if so.

11. We already have Zverev lookalike Rabiot so why not
