A Horse Named Stranger Posted June 30, 2023 Author Share Posted June 30, 2023 14 hours ago, Mexal said: Fixed fee for Havertz for arsenal is like 50m with 15m add ons. The media shifted the reporting on to just talk about total package but that was the bid. Ok, makes that deal more sensible for Arsenal. Still not a bad outcome for Chelsea all things considered. Assuming they paid like 70m for Havertz, and they regained 50m it'd be not that horrible. Basically a bust on 20m signing. Not great, but given how much the big clubs are spending on transfers 20m would not be marque signing gone wrong, but a gamble on a player not paying off. All a matter of perspective. Lukaku on the other hand was just a debacle for them from start to finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soylent Brown Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Joyce and Ornstein reporting that we're trying to get Szoboszlai from Leipzig. I can't say I know that much about him, but it sounds like he knows where the goal is. It's been far too long since Liverpool had someone dangerous in the middle.

Not sure which landmark's were agreed for additional fees. The initial fee for Havertz was £71-72m (€80m) with add-ons that could see the fee rise to £90m. We don't know which, if any, of the add-on clauses were met. @Mexal Quote Fixed fee for Havertz for arsenal is like 50m with 15m add ons. The media shifted the reporting on to just talk about total package but that was the bid. Ornstein says it's £62m + £3m in add-ons. https://theathletic.com/4619930/2023/06/21/arsenal-transfer-kai-havertz-chelsea/ Edited June 30, 2023 by Consigliere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Horse Named Stranger Posted June 30, 2023 Author Share Posted June 30, 2023 Only briefly skimmed through a few old reports. So you are probably right about the fee. Either way, the transfer was not a total disaster for Chelsea. They clawed back most of their investment. A transfer loss between 10-30m while not great isn't gonna kill them either and they got the GWG in CL final out of him on top of that. All a matter of perspective. I don't think Havertz will go down as an inspired signing in Chelsea history, but it was not a total disaster either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Havertz will go down as an inspired signing in Chelsea history, but it was not a total disaster either. It's not bad for Chelsea. On the books they can record it as a profit due to amortisation since Havertz spent 3 seasons out of a 5-year contract at Chelsea so even if they paid the full £90m (unlikely) his maximum book value would have been £36m.

How did he convince David Luiz to pose for the pic? I can answer that question. The on the left is infact not David Luiz, but a German Shepherd (or a Belgian?), anyway it is infact a dog, and not David Luiz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
