Monday: Christensen + Kessie announced, dinner with Mendes
Wednesday: Kessie presented
Thursday: Christensen presented, dinner with Chelsea
They discuss the possible ramifications of those dinners. Laporta owing Mendes a Ronaldo favour? Frenkie de Jong to Chelsea? Azpi and Alonso to Barça? And how is 'Operation Exit' going?
At the end, Rik pops by, via the joys of Whatsapp voice notes, to deliver an update on Euro 2022, which got underway this week with the sad news that Barça's Alexia Putellas is set for a lengthy spell on the sidelined.
