Ed002 there are reports that we are matching chelseas offer for diomande in talking to sporting and diomandes camp, any truth and are we interested? Appreciate it.
{Ed002's Note - Ousmane Diomande (CB) Joined in January 2023 and covered by the Cotonou Agreement. Sporting see him as a long-term partner for Inacio and do not wish to sell - rejecting an offer from Arsenal in the summer. Arsenal could look again but have other targets as well. Manchester City, Liverpool (via a third party) and Chelsea have sent scouts to watch him and Chelsea have declared an interest in him. Sporting will insist that his Buy Out Clause is paid in full which with other discussions gives a huge advantage to Chelsea.

Interesting, Ed002 what do you mean with other discussions? With other players they want or maybe buying a stake in sporting which was reported before.
{Ed002's Note - Chelsea has an interest in another Sporting player and BlueCo have been negotiating buying a stake.}
