You are looking at a minimum outlay of £129,000 000 for the duration of Sanchez contract.
Thats without performance related bonuses
I might be in a minority here; I hope we walk away from this one. Unless we get him on a free in a summer.
He is no longer an urgent necessity given the news on Jesus injury. I also don’t think the fee represents good value for a 29 year old player.

Piss myself as it would take a huge fee and huge wages and he would fall out with Mourinho quicker than Shrek can gobble down a kebab

That's all utter bollox. We are apparently going to offer £250k a week, making him our joint top earner after Yaya. Manu would be smashing their own structure with that weekly wage and of course we all know they cannot compete with us financially because Maureen has said so ... . Sanchez only wants to play for Pep and I think the alleged £400k a week demands were to put off PSG/Bayern etc
He will be a City player in Jan or the summer at the latest, this story is just some Rag shytestirring

I agree.
Look at the paper headlines posted by JC. Happens every transfer window with the Rags. Based on that I dismiss everything Rag related re Sanchez.
From a Sanchez perspective: 29 years old so not many years left, financially loaded, wants a realistic shot at the big trophies, an attacker who likes scoring goals.
We tick all the boxes. All the Rags can offer is money and he has plenty of that.
Arsenal are holding the deal up. Sanchez wants to come to City and is holding out for the move. Arsenal get more money if he moves elsewhere. Stalemate.
Arsenal have a decision to make. £20M now or £0 in the Summer.
I will be shocked if he goes to the Rags. If he does then the money they are throwing his way must be huge.

Looks like we’ll find out soon. I’m surprised. I thought we’d do whatever it takes to land him. Not van Persie again?

I read it like this.
City are holding the aces i.e. Sanchez wants to come to City.
Sanchez is resisting any attempts Arsenal are making to send him elsewhere i.e. to a higher bidder.
It will play out until the end of the transfer window then:
1. Arsenal accept City will go no higher than £20M and let Sanchez join us
2. Arsenal decide that Sanchez could get them 4th which is worth a lot more than £20M - so keep him and let him walk in the Summer
3. Sanchez cracks and goes to the highest bidder
4. City crack and pay what Arsenal demand
I think it will be option 1 or 2.
Probably option 1. I reckon if Sanchez stays that is more internal trouble with no guarantee that they will get 4th. Wenger will be over ruled and the business people will decide on 1.

All this makes me smile and I await the end-game.
