Welcome to Manchester Kevin De Bruyne

[Chopper]

Hopefully Taggart doesnt hijack the deal at the airport

[Piccsnumberoneblue]

Looks like it is finally nearing an end. But then again, who knows?
I think we will look very potent. We've freshened up the attack and that is more important than I realised last year. Mangala and Fernando appeared just the ticket in where we were lacking, but with hindsight, attacking playing staff need to be constantly evolving.

Newsnow is warming up. Still only Mickey Mouse sites yet though

de Bruyne's agent says the deal will be completed tomorrow or the next day

[iwasthere2012]

BILD also

Says 80 mill euros.

Will be announced tomorrow and he will not be with the Squad by Friday.

Until now the biggest sum was 41 mill Firmino to Scouse2.

Der Endlos-Poker um Kevin De Bruyne (24) ist zu Ende!
Morgen wird es offiziell verkündet: Der Belgier wechselt zu Manchester City. Am Freitag beim Spiel gegen Schalke wird De Bruyne schon nicht mehr im Kader sein.
BILD erfuhr am Abend: Es gibt heute vor der Verkündung nur noch Details über die Ablöse zu klären.
Die soll bei rund 80 Millionen Euro liegen – das wäre absoluter Rekord für einen Spieler, der aus der Bundesliga wechselt. Bisher war Firmino (für 41 Mio von Hoffenheim zu Liverpool) der teuerste Kauf von einem deutschen Klub.


And Die Welt , which is a very respectable Newspaper.

That's easy for them to say.
Until Bluemoon put the blue cones outside the Etihad, it's not happening.

F-f-f-f-f fucks sake! H-h-h-h how much! That's only about £12m less than buying Pogba (allegedly). He'd better be a good 'un. Assuming this 'agreement in principle' actually means something.

[Saul Goodman]

Fuckin hell thats alot of money

Sky bet suspend betting.

If you are talking about triggering a release clause AND the player is wanting to come to us that is the starting figure, is it not?? Juve are looking for a lot more as they don't want to lose him and don't forget Pogba owns pretty much his own commercial rights which I thought complicated things further..... Feel free to correct me anyone?

Never mind the Billions the Sheikh coughed up today to get a big share of VW.

[CTID Hants]

Fuckin hell thats alot of money

58m GBP, which is the figure that's been mentioned for the last week...

[everyonehatesus]

Just on 5 live saying worlfspurg have said a deal has been agreed for 80m €, not ifs or buts just that it's a done deal.

Thank fuck.

Fucking chuffed at this guy arriving. Actually excited about us in CL now.

Our opponents will still run through our midfield but at least we could score a goal or two too

Plus I won't believe this is really going through before someone spots him in greggs

[Peter Doherty (AGAIG)]

Costs a lot of money and persuasion to shift a player of this quality from a club reluctant to sell and that doesn't need the money. Well done to all concerned.

[PeterParker]

This is ridiculous.

What a waste, they are taking a piss.

Yes, the hole in the middle of the park will still be evident in Europe. Unless the plan is to change the formation given the signing of the Mighty Ginge.

[Hazy2]

58 mill have we bought Belgium

Regardless, my comment still stands

[ruralblue]

Haven't read anything as been at a gig with my lad but take it that's it's done???

Rural has psychic gonads indeed. He will bag our first this weekend. For I have prophesied.
