LFC have bid €13m. Supposedly he's ours.

I'm skeptical over this price.

Is he #10 worthy or do you make him earn it?

Finally, a Brazilian with flair!! I love Lucas, but he's the most unbrazilian, brazilian there is...

I dunno, Im hearing mixed reports... some are saying we just increased the amount of up front money...

I dont think they are going to get bent over and believe we will have more money in the summer...

I guess we'll see...

I'd doubt that price. Heard our last offer was the same price as our last bid, approximately 8m but it was restructured so that Inter would get most of it upfront to put towards them getting Paulinho.

Idk..I've just had a bad feeling about this transfer all along. I hope were not getting Aquilani 2.0.

Man, having him right now would be awesome..

So it sounds like it was for 13m euros. I agree it's more than I would have liked for us to pay, but he's got the potential to be worth a whole lot more.

ETA - Nevermind. It seems like the deal was for 10 m euros. Saves us a couple million pounds. I'm happy with that.
