City not selling Savhino to spurs has to go down as fucking idiocy.

I remember El Hadji Diouf having an amazing tournament and looked like a proper baller. Liverpool signed him and Salif Diao on the back of their world cup performances. What a crock of shite they were, especially El Hadji spitty twat ended up being hated by everyone, including Liverpool fans.

Had to google it as I couldn't remember his name but the rags and dippers fought over Poborski after Euro 96. He went to the rags and was shite.

A sneaky low bid for Van Dijk perhaps ? Just to piss them off ?

If we get rid of Savio and Kovacic also, It will be an excellent window.
Sent rodri packing also and might actually be excited for the next season.

Wait wait wait, Kova?

He is a great bench option to have, will never be a regular starter and fills in gaps when we need. Would not be upset if he stayed.

Now Phillips however.

Tonali now holds the record for the most shots on target without scoring a single goal in a Premier League season.

...£100M

Simpson-Pusey to FC Kolm after being on loan there. Good move for the boy.

Madrid sign right back Denzel Dumfries from Inter

Maybe a cheeky bid for TAA as his time there seems to be numbered?
Think he could be decent in the midfield for us, he certainly has an eye for a pass and he can accurately cross the ball. Something the Viking isn’t used to but would undoubtedly relish.

See no mention of a fee. Surely we got something unless he was out of contract? Which considering he was on loan last season, first at Celtic then at Cologne, seems unlikely

He's shite, mate, and a yoyo player, you never know when he gets himself injured out of nowhere and he is out 3 months. Cannot go on with all of these sicknotes.
Maresca got rid of him once he arrived at Chelsea. Hope he does the same now,

Kovačić signed for city in June 2023. Maresca didn't roll up at Chelsea until July 1 2024
