Alex Sandro

We must have known of his situation through intermediaries, otherwise I doubt we'd have bothered. We were encouraged to bid, I'm sure.

Yes this is probably true but by whom and for what purpose? Maybe in the hope that a deal could be done, but with which club?

By whom? His agent. For what purpose? To get his client a better financial deal either at his current club (Juve) or somehere else. I'd imagine this type of thing happens all the time.

As I said before, rumour has it that Chelsea are expected to have a conference call with Juve today.
Take it with a grain of salt but I fully expect one last bid to be placed for Sandro and it wouldn't be out of the question that Matic is involved. 

 
There has got to be something brewing in relation to this transfer otherwise Sandro would have signed the new contract by now, either we are in negotiations with Juve over the sale or Sandro's team are negotiating a better deal at Juve.

 
Telegraph are reporting that we're still confident in bringing in Alex Sandro

Also says we want Candevra and Llorente 

 
We gonna have to pay big bucks for him, likely more than mendy + matic would be my guess. 

 
I think we'll be looking at the thick end of €70m making him the world's most expensive defender...saying that if we can flog Matic to manure for £50m then that's most of the fee covered...

If we do buy him for say £65m, I think that's a fair price for arguably the best LB/LWB in the world. Considering City bought Walker and Mendy for around £50m 

 
If Juve are serious about Matic, I'd say value him at about 35m, and offer another 35m + Matic.

 
Am surprised he hasn't signed and Huge haven't come out and say he's not for sale. They have offered him a new deal to make the clud seem like they did everything to keep him

 
Was slightly worried about the price at first but after a full back like Walker goes for 52M i'd be more than happy with the club splashing 70M on Sandro. Twice the player. 

 
If we can pull this one off I think it's one of, if not our best window ever.

 
If only we paid the 60m much earlier and forced their hand much earlier. It would've been a coup.

It can still be a coup now but Juventus is in dire straits atm so it'd take a lot of negotiating nous now

We need quality in the full back positions, todays game highlighted that, we can't just play with 5 defenders and 2 DM's and wait for hazard to open up the opposition, we will get found out like that this season
