They have Victor Orta on a consultancy basis so I'm not the least bit surprised. Power to them. Llorente would be a fantastic addition to their star studded line up. Plus they have money to throw around

Re: Diego Llorente- PSG potentially in negotiations
One of the few that thinks Llorente is a good footballer, be interesting to see if PSG are successful getting Roma to let him go where Llorente is a key player

He's a good footballer so hopefully we can make some cash back.

Re: Diego Llorente- PSG potentially in negotiations
From Spanish journalist Samuel Silva’s twitter:
Diego Llorente's name is very well placed on the Betis list.
The green and white club is willing to make a purchase offer to convince Leeds and the player.
Roma, in principle, has requested another loan

Re: Diego Llorente- PSG potentially in negotiations
Would be nice if we could get a fee rather than another loan. Closure on some these players would be nice too.AcrossThePondAsh wrote: ↑Thu Jun 27, 2024 6:42 pm From Spanish journalist Samuel Silva’s twitter:

Closure is the perfect word, Andrew, not only from a financial point of view but also the bigger picture, turning over a new leaf, pick your clicheandrewjohnsmith wrote: ↑Thu Jun 27, 2024 6:54 pm Would be nice if we could get a fee rather than another loan.

Thus, the Betis links. Wonder if we’ll give him away for nothing like we did Roca.AcrossThePondAsh wrote: ↑Sat Jun 29, 2024 10:55 am

Re: Diego Llorente- No option or obligation to buy in Roma loan
Always been better rated on the continent. Made him a stupid signing from the start. He's clearly a talented continental center back and certainly not an English center back. I think Orta just snapped him up because he was available at the time.Clacton White wrote: ↑Sat Jun 29, 2024 2:34 pm Shhhhhhh . Don't tell them that .
I think Florence is brilliant ( never know , PSG might be reading this )

On the ball RCB, never played there after his injury but was very good until the injury.andrewjohnsmith wrote: ↑Sat Jun 29, 2024 4:25 pm Always been better rated on the continent.

Re: Diego Llorente
Reports in Spain saying Diego is approaching a move to Betis for between £3-4mil.
So pleased we offered him that £6mil a year contract (per Kinnear) to protect his value.

Re: Diego Llorente
Club must have been trying to control the narrative then with the "leaks" of rejecting a £5.1mil bid.
Because
They've seemingly accepted half that.

Re: Diego Llorente
Sadly once you want rid the fee almost becomes irrelevant.
At least he won't be getting paid PL wages

Re: Diego Llorente
Weird unless a lot less was offered originally. Probably need the horses mouth to make sense of it.
