Where do all these rumours come from? Any one of them, plus Arsenal, Liverpool etc could have signed him last month - but no takers!

Who aren’t Chelsea in the market for

rather he didn’t go Spurs, any player, and manager, is wasted there while Levy is at the helm

but would love to see him in the Prem. while PSG and champions league would suit him, I think the premiership would be the biggest test for him and he’s hit form and is a great age to move there imo

Spurs could have signed him in the summer but decided to spend £65M on Solanke instead, they might as well just paid the extra to sign him.

Silly isn't it.

Maybe they sounded him out and he told them to fuck off and come back when they've actually won something.

Does he still have a release clause, I thought 65m? So itll be a % of 65 no matter where he goes

Well it makes sense when you look at his competition.

With Toney out the picture he could well get call ups in the near future.

100m EUR = £83m is what his release clause is

It'll be his agency grinding the PR machine.

Reading between the lines I suspect they thought they'd have clubs queuing for his signature in the summer, so they're clearly doing everything they can to continually put his name out there to ensure it definitely happens this time around.

Realistically though given his record so far, he's doing that all on his own.

His value could be settled by how he does in the 2 upcoming CL games against Arsenal and Man City.

Well You've Obviously Not Watched, Captain Scarlett and The Mysterons, Go On YouTube and Have a Look.

Captain Black is a Spitting Image of Mikel Arteta.
