Blimey; Cesc Really Wants Liam Delap at Como 14:24 - Aug 14 with 2459 viewsCheltenham_Blue

"Liam Delap is a proper striker. Give him the opportunity and the time, and he’ll show you exactly what he’s got. I’ve been watching him since his Ipswich days even back then I thought, ‘That’s a player I’d love to work with.

We’ve already spoken to Chelsea about him, and now I’m just waiting for his green light. If he wants to come and be part of what we’re building at Como, the door is open. He’s got pace, a real shot on him, and he can hold the ball up under pressure. He’s a nightmare for defenders reminds me a bit of Diego Costa in that sense.

Give a player like that belief and he’ll repay you. I really hope he says yes. I’d love to get him here."

That makes a change from "I won't discuss players under contract at another club."

Would be funny if that convinces another club to take another look and decide to go for it.

Not sure Como can afford the £50mil that’s been quoted Chelsea want for him, I assume it’s a loan? Como is more picturesque than Stamford bridge

Indeed, certainly suggests that Chelsea want him out the door then, as I doubt Fabregas would have made such a statement otherwise.

"even back then", means "during his good season under a competent manager"!

Como's owners (the Hartono brothers) are worth $48bn, and they are investing in the club to bring it forward so combine that with CL qualification can imagine available spend is there.

And they've already said they don't care if they are fined for overspending. Basically cost of doing business.

Presumably the release clause wouldn’t have included a sell fee 20% of £20 million would do nicely.

But according to many of our fans, he would be a poor signing and a step backwards.

Presently we go into the Premier League with Akpom, Emmersonn and maybe, George Hirst.

To say we're somewhat understocked in that area is not really a stretch.

Its a loan apparently.

As long as there isn't a £50m option on it. What we want is for him to play the way he was for us, go back to Chelsea, get the England call and then get sold to Madrid for £150m

Ker-Ching.

ashton, said we were very, very well protected, so i'm expecting a 100% sell-on fee!

You're assuming we have a sell-on clause? You may be right, but I thought we were stuffed by the terms of his contract when he signed for us, ie he could leave (unconditionally) if a club stumped up £30 million.

I recall someone saying that we might have been able to negotiate a sell-on clause in return for allowing Chelski to pay by instalments, but has the club said that this is the case?

They'd need to sell the lake for that. Stunning area though. If he thinks we've sufficiently " warmed up " LD for him, perhaps he'd reply in kind by letting us have Nico Paz. A player I've kept an eye on since I first saw him a couple of years or so ago. I'd pick him up myself and I don't drive!

A fine’s not enough then. Sounds like they would need relegating if they deliberately overspend after bragging about it.
