    They're a * show, think Moussa should avoid them for the time being.

    I agree but thinking more from United’s side. Looks exactly what they need.

    Frustrated me in his second season tbh.

    But still a class guy and quality player. If he could shake the injuries then he will really fulfill that potential.

    He was a big game player for sure, remember lots of games against the "lower" teams when he was a bit anonymous, but all the big games he was up for it and sensational.

    Tbh I think he'd do wonders at Chelsea.

    He could bring out the best out of a three of Werner, Havertz, Dembele.

    Doubt Chelsea of course would win trophies all that often but that would be a fairly decent attack I'd say.

    Wouldn’t surprise me to see him end up at Newcastle…

    I would have thought so....not psg, Man City or Newcastle type money...but I'd have thought they'd have around £35-£40mill to spend on Moussa.

    Tbf he could easily end up in Spain again, but I'd say England is most likely destination if even is rumoured to leave Lyon (not sure he has been has he, more me just making * up).

    A lot of teams in England would be improved with him in he squad.

    Chelsea would be the best move for him.

    UCL football but also in need of someone like him. Lukaku been a shiter again.

    More I think about it, annoyingly the more I believe he'd be successful there individually speaking.

    I know the EPL fans and pundits alike all seem to still dismiss Werner but I'd say an attacking line of Havertz, Dembele, Werner would be decent.

    That's without taking into account Mount, Pulisic (depending on injuries) Ziyech, Hudson Odoi as well.

    Being linked with Tottenham and Arsenal in the mail for £25m.

    Claims we have 15% sell on fee so we'd get £3.75m. On top of the £19.5m we got thats not bad business for a guy signed for a compensation fee.

    He counts as a homegrown player for an English side, crucially.

    If there is any truth to him potentially moving anywhere, the homegrown rule might just mean a there is a fair bit of interest from most clubs in EPL who see themselves within the top 8 clubs

    Hope he doesn’t go to Tottenham. He’s never getting Kane’s position.

    He would be absolutely perfect for Arsenal, Chelsea or Man Utd though. Manchester United should be all over him like a * rash. Cheap enough player with their limited budget and they need a striker.

    Dare I'd suggest he'd maybe be a great addition as a wildcard option for Liverpool.

    Talk of city not having a striker but I don't think Liverpool have had one either really.

    Tbh, even with Ten Hag coming in, I feel like Man Utd are such a basket case of club right now I'd go nowhere near it...

    In terms of London clubs, I'd say the only two worth moving to is Chelsea and West Ham.

    Chelsea with new ownership might just have a little bounce and try and build something. West Ham because he'd be guaranteed playing time there and they seem fairly solid now under Moyes.

    With Spurs, under Conte they can't be written off but he's never playing there whilst Kane exists, and Arsenal...to an extent maybe aren't so much of a wreck as they were but still are run so poorly akin to Man Utd I'd not want to go there.

    Arsenal could be a good shout. Probably his level right now and he'd be the main man.

    As many have said he would literally slot into that Arsenal side so nicely! KT Assist to Moussa might see me blow my load. Hate Arsenal though, but Spurs are a horrible club and would only want my worst enemies to end up there

    Is it a flat 15% though? I would've thought it was 15% on profit.

    Does Kane not play in the 10 for Spurs nowadays ? Seen them raving about his assists on motd or some * at the * end of the season.
