Transfer rumours

[john@staustell]

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

We could value Nunes at 70 million in part ex

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.

Then let them and more fool them

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..

[salford city]

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

[sheblue]

We need really good transfer business this summer. No More mediocre plan Bs.

[Mase]

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?

[Outcast]

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

Watched him in borh games against happy hammers as I'd not seen him play. Looks tidy enough

[Mase]

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

£100M for a 32 year old with a year left on his contract? Be very hard business wise to turn that down to be honest

But of course it depends on the circumstances and replacement. Mentioned it before and I think Foden is ready to assume the mantle of chief creator in the middle which is proper progression

[dick dastardley]

KDB is irreplaceable, mom award every other game. A season by season contract would be a wise move

No one is ever irreplaceable. We said the same about Yaya Aguero Silva and we still win stuff.

Chances are we won’t get a better like for like replacement but we may change slightly how we set up and play slightly differently but we will still be in the mix for trophies after he has gone/retired

[Outcast]

It's tough when B lister Grealish cost £100m
D lister Nunes over £50m
And Z lister Phillips £42m

If we're letting him go, we need a A* replacement

[Original Dub]

We don't need the money so all the same if it was 50m.

Players with his attributes are few and far between. Amazing player, even to have in the squad as time goes on.

The decision belongs to one person and personally I cannot see KDB going there.

He already has a net worth of over £56M, his kids are 8,6 &4 so I doubt he will unsettle them going to Saudi.

Also if I remember correctly he said himself about 4yrs back he hopes to end his career at City.

Very true. I personally wouldn’t want to live out there with 3 kids of that age and I can’t imagine he is desperate to play out there either.

But as a club I think we would consider an offer of that magnitude. Whether we accept it is a matter for the DoF. And whether KDB himself wants a different challenge is up to him

[CTID Hants]

The club can listen to or even accept an offer but, if Kev doesn't want to go, fuck all the club can do.

IF Kev decides to go then that's another matter.

Additionally, Pep has said this week he wants Kev to finish his career here, who knows, will Txiki want to piss Pep off by cashing in on him.

We don’t need the money ? You do realise it’s a fucking business don’t you ? You talk about being dense ffs!!

Player sales are fundamental to buy new players FYI and if Kev wants to go to Saudi or anywhere else and the fee is right , we will sell him .
