Yeah see I saw that, but were we actually in for him? I mean a random Twitter account said we were signing Manzukic but that was obviously bollocks
like other than a couple of people causing the telegraph to link him, I don’t recall any reputable sources confirming this
The link came from the Chelsea journo at Goal before the Telegraph. Someone in here mentioned they’d heard we were still interested this summer. Someone else on here got their wires crossed and thought SBT had started the rumour. That’s the size of it.
Original tweet (he’s the same guy who broke him going to Monaco):
It’s not exactly unheard of that we keep our interest in players.
Tom Leach also confirmed he’s heard the rumours in a Q&A last summer.
I know it’s fun to kick the CT, but it does tend to lead to people overdoing it and making themselves look silly.
