Nobody can confirm what went wrong, it's just such a weird situation. The story that makes the most sense is that he passed the medical but we had some concerns with how one of his previous surgeries were done. Club basically wanted him to have sugery again to have it fixed up and restructure the deal and then everything just fell apart from there.
I don't even remember being interested in Remy, my memory past last season is basically non existent atm haha.
Ah makes sense, only logical reasoning I could see would be medical related
We did something similar when we initially signed Ruud van Nistelrooy, medical came back that his knee was dodgy (something along those lines) so we told him that and called the deal off, he of course went back to PSV and didn't seek treatment to repair it or whatever and did his ACL in one of the following training sessions - still worked out for Ruud in the end after surgery, so there's that if you guys still want Fekir cos I read there may or may not be things happening in the background to revive the Fekir deal
With Remy, it was just before the start of the 2014-15 season* (links below if you're interested) when you guys pulled out last minute after triggering his release clause citing a failed medical which is weird because he passed his Chelsea medical and France knew about his heart condition and deemed him fit when he was called so I think you guys just had cold feet at the last second and used the medical as a way of not paying the triggered release clause haha (doubt that's the reason behind Fekir's weird u-turn)
