being reported that Christopher Nkunku changed his mind last minute moving from AC Milan to Roma, so AC Milan have pulled out of the deal to sign Jean-Philippe Mateta, and so Jørgen Strand Larsen's proposed move to Palace is also on hold and Adam Armstrong's move from Southampton to Wolves is on hold too

Sounds like Mateta failed his medical.

Palace now have both Mateta and Strand Larsen.

Obviously I could be proved very wrong (maybe I’ve just seen the wrong games) but crikey, £48m for THAT?

:shock:

The brutal world of being a footballer/commodity.

Aarón Anselmino was signed by Chelsea from Boca Juniors 18 months ago. He stayed at Boca for six months, and then was loaned to Dortmund. He earned a place in the side only to be recalled from Germany after Chelsea failed to sign Jeremy Jacquet. Back in London, he is then shipped out to sister club Strasbourg, swapping places with Mamadou Sarr. Four countries, three clubs, and he's not played for the club that signed him.

Chelsea have now recorded 12 transactions with Strasbourg this season. All within the ownership rules, but it stinks.
