Any one have any info on Paul Onuachu, Genk.

{Ed002's Note - Paul Onuachu (S) Growing interest but the player wants the Premier League. Arsenal have looked at him but have preferred targets.}

Hello Ed, would you be able to tell us about Buendia please if you can plz.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - Emiliano Buendia (RW/AM) Atletico Madrid and Valencia are keen and Leeds could become interested if Raphinha were to leave. Norwich say they have had four Premier League clubs enquire about his availability (that will include Arsenal and Aston Villa) but have stressed that their focus is on getting promoted and keeping the team together. €40M may persuade them otherwise.

Thank you very much Ed. In your opinion do you reckon he will be the better option than odegaard?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - I don't think Odegaard is an option.}

I think Buendia could be a good addition. Thanks for the info though ED.

Thanks Ed. I’m actually happy about that because I didn’t think odegard done as good as people think. It’s weird though because I though Buendia will cost more than odegaard.

I think that’s good news all round too. Odegaard isn’t worth 40m in my opinion no way. ESR is just as good and Willocks just banged in 7goals in 7 games being on loan so the way I see it is we have better than Odegaard already so why waste 40m on him.
At least Buendia can play on the wings too which would be more beneficial for us.

Ornstein reporting that Buendia and Norwich have mutually agreed that he can move on. Currently the clubs showing the most interest are Arsenal, and Villa who want to play him next to Grealish. Norwich are said to want at least £40m.

Edu and Arteta view him as the preferred option if they can't bring in Odegaard. Ornstein doesn't mention whether we would accept another loan.

We are also apparently prioritising right centre-back, specifically Jules Kounde, but this is unlikely as he will cost around £50 million and is likely to want Champions League football.

Norwich are apparently also willing to let Aarons and Cantwell go for the right price.

Rather have him than odergard.

I'm not sure Odegaard did enough on loan. Seemed a fairly average player, and we've already got plenty of those!

Asked Ed about interest in Brandt on the European Page. Here is his answer:
{Ed002's Note - Julian Brandt (AM) again a player who was being considered by Arsenal. He would be a reasonable price and would be an Oezil replacement but it will now depend on the future of MO. Asking price is €25M. }

Seems like he is still an option if we can't get Ø.
