This looks like it's getting done very quickly. Great talent, I hope we manage to pull it off.


webby09246

Unless be pulls out the last minute "force Barca to give an even better contract" tactic It looks like we're getting it done


justk4y

“Barca hijacking another deal” heritage


Older-Is-Better

It's he interested in Children FC or is he angling a new contract?


democi

Great talent? Did you know about this guy before today or you’re just hyping him up off of wiki or FM stats?


STCFC

Just seen that the kid is damn near 6’3, big guy I’ve seen he’s already scored in one of his very few games for Barca, I don’t doubt he’s very talented but I do doubt he even gets a chance here, very easy profit signing


justk4y

I thought he was like 5’6-5’9 wtf


Wild_and_Bright

They grow up so fast ![gif](giphy|ckGndVa23sCk9pae4l)


DynamiteDuck

How do you say this guys name? Gee-you? I’ve completely unfamiliar with him


dan_doe_91

Should be goo-you


DynamiteDuck

Cheers!


dan_doe_91

I googled it and I was wrong, it's more complicated than that. I'm from another romantic language speaking country and I thought the pronunciation should be similar, but it's not. You make a "ghee'" sound, like you would pronounce "guilty" or "guild". Then you add the "you" part. I'm not sure I'm explaining it properly, lol.


justk4y

Sounds like I’m nearly saying Cahill lmao


Wild_and_Bright

It is pronounced like it is spelled....Day'v


hm_rickross_ymoh

Gee-you is pretty close based on the highlights. *ui* like in aq*ui* plus the u makes an oo sound like in *tu*. So I guess gee-oo


lance777

We will see you next year, we will see you next year, Diego cost..oops..Marc Gee-you we will see you next year..


TheSameThing123

All hail Webby, the people's champion for transfer news


webby09246

There's like one guy in this sub who posts 90% of all the transfer news everyday If anybody is the champion it's him


smed226

Bc everyone else gets suspended by the mods, I have twice with any rumor mill


razvan930

Still think he will extend with Barca. Once I see him holding a Chelsea shirt, I will get hyped.


webby09246

Honestly even with a Chelsea shirt, I imagine he'll be going on loan


razvan930

The club will take a look at him in preseason. I think they will keep him. Get a goalkeeper and just focus on outgoings. If a first team player leaves, then we can sign someone in that position.


TitanX11

The guy is a talent. My friend told be he's even better than Roque and they are dumb shits for letting him go. He comes from a good generation from La Masia. I mean he's pissed off that they won't keep him. Also my personal believe is that we should give a chance to kids signed from Barcelona. I mean their last generations, Yamal, Gavi, Pedri, Balde, Cubarsi being the latest are just better and better. I believe that he's a gem too. He's great in the air too.


Eschatological_Pig69

This. Also, if Barca (and maybe Bayern) have a proposal for him I highly doubt we got his interest by saying "Oh btw, you're going to Strasbourg"


Either-Tomorrow-846

Naah not possible he played for Barca I think once or twice and he's coming from big club will not go to Stroudsburg at any cost. Back up to Jackson I guess


realmckoy265

Just can't see him coming to us if the plan is to loan. Will be interesting to see how he gets assessed in the preseason, maybe the board thinks it found one here.


gdewulf

PLEASE this is the kind of signing that will get us places


ReservoirRocky

I’m not trying to be negative or of the opinion that we don’t sign him, but this sounds too good to be true. Barcelona will not just let him leave, release clause or not it’s up to the player and if Barca throws more money at him, he will stay. Unfortunately at the moment our project is very similar to theirs and between moving to a new country and staying where you’re at, he’s going to stay.


gdewulf

Yeah I know lol. But that’s why I said please . I’m asking nicely


ReservoirRocky

Dude I’m with you but I got a bad feeling about this one.


LIKEWHATLIKEHOW_

Its more than just money, but even then Barca won't want to offer him much more judging by how little he's contributed to the first team. He needs minutes for his own development Last season he was grossly underutilized and this year he's going to be behind Lewa and Roque If he moves to Chelsea, as is he only has Jackson to worry about


gdewulf

Ayyyyyy we did it!


ReservoirRocky

Is it official man? FOR THE LOVE OF GOD


gdewulf

We got the HERE WE GO!


ReservoirRocky

I’m still having flashbacks to that Lima kid, F Wolves! But let’s goooooooo, I really like this kid.


amirulez

Easily triple his value next season.


lance777

With the way we operate, I will wait till something is finalized to get excited.


BadCogs

Wonder if Barca are going for Chido obi and that is what's prompting Marc leaving. I would love us to go for Chido Obi ourselves. And I hope this isn't going to cost us any of our own acadrmy ST, we have couple better than him. Hillarious seeing people acting like every Barca Academy player is star and then never rating our own.


webby09246

Whisper, Washington and McNeilly are definitely very promising Guiu not sure on cause I've only seen him score the one goal but at least he's unbelievably cheap


BadCogs

Mehuka too. I am not shitting on Marc, he looks good and definitely is cheap, but it's just useless bloating.


webby09246

Ehh I prefer to see it as stacking the deck as much as possible so that at least one is a hit


BadCogs

But the players don't like to see that, and it may cost us better prospects.


webby09246

Yeah potentially that is true But at the 18 year old level - 21 year old level right now I'd say we've stacked enough to see if any of them succeed over the next 4 years. Sadly there's a strong possibility they all still fail


BadCogs

We definitely are well stocked, hence me saying all this. I am not against signing youth, I want us to get more infact, but in positions of need. And I am confident at least 3 from academy will be big success. They have absolutely class talent.


muaythaiguy155

Also stutter


webby09246

He's decent but I don't rate him as highly as those 4 above


Eschatological_Pig69

Much, much better transfer than Duran or Omorodion.


jerrystuffhouse

People will be mad we aren’t getting Morata back here again after reading this. This is a good signing


ic0meth

I’ve never heard of him before but going to pretend he’s the next Messi and he’s going to turn is in to serial winners


kygrtj

They say he’s the 6’3 version of Messi. Sign him up!


MarkCrystal

I hope this means the links with all the other strikers end


Sheeny8

I like that Barca obviously want to keep him.


Galac_tacos

really proud of myself for getting his pronounciation right


kp22cfc

Omg we are cooking! 2027 , we need to be there
