They both play in midfield. It is absolutely the same position.Its not the same position.
Wouldn’t be surprised if the only deal Edu manages to complete before the deadline is this disaster.
Absolute joke.
Imagine going for a medical and everything but only being able to sign if Atletico sell 2 players, watch him stick an Arsenal training top on next month.
Let AM sell one and then we can help them out with Partey to free up space for Torreira-or so you'd think.
Apparently Athletico was Torreira’s preference but I can’t remember where I read it.If Torreira to AM is really contingent on them shifting 2 players, then why did we not let him go to Fiorentina? Would've been a loan with option as well. If it's that he rejected the move, club should've given him an ultimatum. Go to Italy or sit on the bench.
Only thing I'm excited about now is the Usual Suspect meltdown when Lucas reports back for training after the international break.
We've gone from "loan with an option to buy" to "medical with an option to loan"
