What are peoples thoughts on Kondogbia as an option for our defensive midfield? young strong quick good feet and at 15m could be a good bit of business. I believe we had a look at him in January last season before his move.

You do realise Monaco signed him from Sevilla less than 2 years ago for 25 Million Euro. What Makes you think they would sell him for 15M?

That's clarity for you JaMax.

It's the same with Depay. People are branding around figures like £10-15million. Daley Blind came from the same league and hadn't made half the name for himself Depay has and he cost around the £15million mark.
Depay is the leading scorer from the wing in the Dutch league, scored goals in Europe, has been racking up assists, Philip Cocu claims he can be the 'next Robben' (so he is obviously rated very highly) and is much more marketable (hence his new deal with under armour). So what makes folk think PSV won't be looking for big money for him?

Maybe its the reports Monaco have touted him with a £14.5m price tag Jamax

Depay is also out of contract next year though which will halve his price. And if he wants to leave, he will. £20-25 million will be what he goes for.
13 Mar 2015 11:19:24
and kondogbia was signed for 11m not 25m his 5 year contract was around 25m
13 Mar 2015 11:39:26
JMB, maybe that is because it is reported that Depay is having one year left on his contract.
13 Mar 2015 11:55:07
Now that we've established the validity of the post what are peoples thoughts on him being an option?
13 Mar 2015 13:18:08
I like the cut of your jib, clarity.

I must admit I have only seen kondogbia in a couple of games so can't pass comment but depay has certainly shown great promise. He still isn't the finished article but considering the alleged price it doesn't appear to be too much of a risk considering what he may potentially develop into.

My Mistake Clarity, You are correct on that but I still don't see him going for 15 Million. He is young, talented, and already made an appearance for the french national Team. I see him costing atleast 20 Million.
Regardless of what he costs I think he is a machine and would love him to bolster up our midfield. He is strong, fast, breaks up play and has time on his side to develop even further.
