I think we’ll probably sell to Monaco unless Chelsea offer something silly. Trouble is clubs in Europe are broke so I’m not surprised it’s been a struggle to find buyers for our surplus players.

It’s because Balogun doesn’t want to stay unless he’s first choice and I don’t think someone on the strength of one season in French football gets to be first choice, and probably the more stark realisation that we need to sell someone and he’s the most likely player to fetch money.
I don’t think we should sell him to Chelsea in any event. Well maybe for 90 million
I suspect that with the players we are looking to sell they will go mainly out at the last minute on loan deals with obligations to buy next year. I don’t see us spending much in the near future (by near future I mean next 2-3 years, certainly not at the level we have been anyway). See us being linked with the Irish lad at Brighton as a striker next summer….no idea how good he is really. Real transfer coup would be nicking their chief scout off them
