    Was he not also out of contract?. Think that's the key difference here between musonda and dembele

    Possibly mate. Fulham would have still been due a development fee either way. It's just so much less if it's a team outside England.

    £5,000,000 does seem a little too good to be true. I wonder if that is because his contract has it as a buy out clause?

    Dembele was a free though, and we only had to pay training compo. You're not going to get many bosmans of that quality

    My very good mate is a die hard Chelsea fan and attends games home & away and even watches the reserves/developemt teams, also keeps a close eye on players loaned out. He sent me a very, very long essay on this player but I'll just give you the highlights of the text (I asked for a full review via text)

    "Hi Mark mate, you're getting a very raw, huge talent on your hands buddy, I'm very surpised we're letting him go as when I've watched him, he looks the real deal. However, he does have a bad attitude at times, also, his shooting is woeful and final ball needs to be worked on - He'll rip the SPL apart (No offence to your league but he'd instantly become the best player in your league)

    I did 'educate' him on his little dig about our league, I also reminded him of Scott Sinclar, Dembele, Tierney, Rogic etc - So, not sure he'd instantly be the best, but apart from that, he did make fair points. My mate, knows his * and despite being a bit cocky, has always been on the money with players and I'd say 7/10 he is accurate with players Chelsea are wanting to sign etc. He states, Lukaku will join Chelsea despite the latest rumours linking him with Man United. (Just an additional bit of info for you)

    He highlighted what we already knew, he has blistering pace and ability to take players on, huge, huge potential. I asked him in his honest view if he really thought he'd go to the very top and he said "Without any doubt, with the right guidance, he'll reach the top mate" Let's be honest, he couldn't be at a better club to develop under BR.

    I've asked him to elaborate on his comment about his attitiude, as I've looked on Google etc and I can't see any bad reviews about this, so I'm happy to fill you all in once he get's back to me if you'd like. My mate's dad is actually works for the Chelsea youth set-up so he does have inside info (I know, we've all heard that one before!).

    Yep, he said it should be confirmed within days.

    In my like 7 years on this Forum I've never pretended or stuck my neck on the line about potential rumors, as I know nothing, I'm only passing on my mate's word, sorry, I missed the most important part of the Text.

    "Should be confirmed within 72 hours"

    I should say, he has been spot on with most of what he said, he told me Victor Moses would come back to Chelsea and fight for his place when it seemed certain he'd sold off as he was a flop, he told me about Costa's spat with Chelsea and that he would NOT be here next year when he was banging in goals. He told me Kante was joining way, way before the media got wind of it too. His trap record, is solid. However, he did once state Chelsea were in talks with Arsenal with Ozil in January which was never reported, so he has got stuff wrong (Just putting that out there so I don't feel the full force of Talk Celtic if this deal falls through) :D

    Like I say, I'd give him a solid 7/10 for reliable info.

    You're welcome lads/lasses.

    Hi Ryan, hope you're well mate.

    Have I ever let you down before? Wait, don't answer that! I think he'll be a great addition mate, buzzing if we pull this off.
