Yan Couto had this to say when asked about the reported transfer interest him from Real Madrid.
He said: “Playing for Madrid is an option if they are interested, I’m not going to lie. I’m a Manchester City player, I have a contract there and it’s my dream to play for City.”
Get him back in the summer. Him and Walker can share the games next season. Move Rico into midfield.

The last two or three transfer windows have been largely a disaster and weakened us. You'd have to be optimistic looking ahead to the summer that outgoings and incoming can't be as horrendous.

McAtee on the bench today again. Weird how both McAtee and Palmer said they’d like to go on loan, but it was only Palmer that was told he’d be sold if he wanted to go.
I can only assume that Pep felt let down massively with Palmer, or that he had a stinking attitude. Maybe a bit of both.
McAtee’s season is a bit of a waste. Bobb definitely above him in the pecking order now, and I’d dare say that even though he’s played less, Bobb has developed more for us and the way we play.

Agree re McAtee now clearly being behind Bobb and woyld be surprised if he comes back to stay with us. Did hear that over the summer he had a couple of training sessions at scouse but came back and said Klopp was a weirdo - this was from his old fella which was a bit of a surprise

I think we’ll sell McAtee with a buy back, which is a shame. Would love to have seen what he could do here but I think he should have stayed instead of asking to go back to Sheff United. Another year learning under Foden, Kev etc. Saying that, I’d still put him above Nunes in the pecking order

Our transfers need to be ramped up. Tonight is the last time we will play Madrid without Mbape. Adding to Bellingham V Jr. they have ramped up.

Fair point Hazy. I do believe Bellingham had a late change of mind and that we had rhought we'd get him with Paqueta as a Plan B. Plenty seem to be linked to the Girona left back who RM also have a buy-back on so its going to be a big summer window where we need to get things done early due also to the Euros

If we spend £85m on Paqueta it will show we’ve learnt nothing from Nunes and Phillips.
£85m is mind blowing for such an average player

Agree entirely. No way we should be spending that much on this kid. Go all out and get the kid from Leverkusen if we are looking to spend that kind of dosh

Listen, if we're in for him at 85 mill then either the Rags will stump up 95 mill or Chavski at 110 mill on an eight year contract.

How the he'll could mcatee, contracted at city, train with one of our fierce rivals? Lol
Agree re paqueta. Lots of neutral mates raving about him but I'd be underwhelmed esp with that fee. Better than kalvin and nunes but not kev/gundog levels..

According to the beeb gossip, we're in for Ait-Nouri can we send Nunes back as part of the deal?

Not seen him. I like Cunha, but could end up like Nunes.
After Nunes kicked off and went on strike, Wolves wouldn’t touch him again unfortunately

Jeremie Frimpong's release clause is only valid in the summer — he could leave Bayer Leverkusen in July 2024. The value of the release clause is €40m with favorable payment terms.
Get him back! Would count as home grown as well?

We need statement signings or we'll fall behind Real. £110m for Wirtz should do it.

What we thinking? £100m+ for Kev - take it or leave it?
