the kid isn't interested. end of imo. has nothing to do with us not wanting him or being willing to pay
This is so far from the truth.
As is the truth that reports Paris have this deal all sewn-up, is also wide of the mark at this stage.
The Monaco vice-president is on record saying it is for "sporting reasons" that he wants to move this summer.
This gives me hope.

Seen last night that Arsenal and Liverpool ruled themselves out. Never knew they was in ffs, next thing you know Oldham will be counting themselves out so shambolic.

When did he tell you?
just seems obvious to me. him and mendy have toyed with us. we've been chasing him for two years and haven't had much come out from his side. i do believe the stories about him wanting to go to psg. think that probably has something to do with him and fabinho's bustup in training a couple days ago... idk to me this is not worth following as closely as so many seem to be.

So you're just guessing?

I guess we'll see. The sporting reasons thing gave me hope too. I believe Monaco would rather sell to us than to PSG and I'm sure playing for pep has to have some appeal to the kid... but at the same time, I just feel like PSG is what he wants most. it's safer than madrid at this point in his career, gets to team up with neymar, paris native... leaves door open for a move later to barca madrid

Maybe they have? It doesn't need to be a statement made publicly. Just a letter to the various chairmen and chief execs.If I was a somebody at UEFA I would issuing a pre-emptive statement now, reminding everyone of their duty to work within limits and reminding everyone that punishments will be implemented. No excuses then for any team that abuses F.F.P. and UEFA can come down heavy.
And I agree it would be a good idea. Much better all around to prevent some stupidity rather than having to punish a club after the event.

If PSG doesn't have the deal sewn up, and if Real does not want him this summer, there must be a chance that we get to make the deal, and the closer it gets to the end of the transfer window, presumably the price will come a little down. All to our advantage, as long as nobody else is really at the table.This is so far from the truth.

I'm not sure PSG and City are competing with each others for players because of political reasons. Maybe, only maybe PSG - they need to show some strength as country in this political situation but it's mainly regular football club reasons. But I don't see either dealing with each other right now.
Hopefully you are right but will any side be content to not allow their hatred for each other to influence their football decisions.
As you say if they wont deal with each other how can they possibly see bidding against each other in a detached way ?

They would bid against each other anyway, big and rich clubs would always compete against each other for top players. I think people running both clubs are smart enough and long enough in business to keep it under control.

Tolmie, my understanding from what has been said on here is that Mbappe has an agreement with City & PSG over terms, (not sure about Madrid). it is now for both parties to convince Monaco to sell.This is so far from the truth.

Completely agree although i will add that players like Kev, Merlin, Raz and Bernado this year all have to chip in much more as they have the talent to do so.
Silva is lost case there, I'm afraid. He's in age he can't really improve anything and it's just not his strength to score goals from positions he plays for us. I really don't have idea who's idea is that he takes some free kicks, he's absolutely awful in them too.
De Bruyne though has goals in himself, depending how close he'll play to opposition goal, he should add bit more this season.
Don't know about Bernando and Sterling, hm, I wouldn't bet my life for his converting to save it but guess he still has time to improve there.
him and mendy have toyed with us.
How has Mendy toyed with us?!

Forgive my cynicism about the way those who run football clubs behave re cartels etc but both the Arab owned clubs will show the football world how to conduct business and possibly no jingoism for the victor then.
Lets hope so.
Incidentally if they can be so smart and business like over this transfer surely they could do direct business or is that where we came in ?

Playfully on twitter. I think him and Mbappe get a kick out of it. Doesn't mean or imply anything really... Just my gut is telling me he's not that interested.

Funny how we have to hope for exactly this in connection with Alexis Sanchez, but with Mbappe we have to hope that Monaco behaves like Arsenal and refuse to sell to a domestic competitor and instead sell cheaper to a foreign club. One would think one of the 2 deals will come off, if logic plays any role :-)Money talks.
