Haha don’t get too giddy amigo. I’m not saying he’s coming. All I‘m saying is that IF he leaves Arsenal in January, it seems that United (at this time of writing) is more likely than City.

Don't know anything about the reliability of this fella, but what he's saying is a long way from suggesting its a done deal

Worth a try Ric,just getting on everyone’s tits now.

Nah, you’re not ;)

25 to the Arse and 10 to the Alexis camp. Surely that's sufficient.

His agent wants his fee’s plus a signing on bonus of £15m I think to go to Sanchez.

His agent wants £10m going off the Telegraph report.

The Mail are saying United are willing to make him the first 350k a week PL footballer as well.

The fact that he implied it was done, then backtracked straight away probably tells you all you need to know. He’s an absolute prick that guy.

Not if Sanchez says he will only go to City, either in January or in the summer. All hypothetical though, of course.

You’d also have to prove the conversation took place and more specifically what was said.

In the end it will always come down to sanchez own choice. so why pay over the top.

Exactly. He is basically saying they are the only team willing to pay the extortionate fees.

You'd think City was some kind of vocation choice for players reading the posts on here.
We may be one day - but clearly not yet.

Hahahaha you know what I meant you bad man : )

The only caveat to that is how he chooses. Does he judge on football and success? Has to be us. Does he judge on money? Most likely United.

But does he also judge on who wants him the most as in being willing to pay Arsenal what they ask to get him out of there?

At the moment that tips the balance towards elsewhere.

When it was reported he turned down psg and Bayern was it really they refused to pay what he asked ?

 

[Healdplace]

PSG it seems did yes. They had Fair Play finance concerns. Still do.

Bayern it was reported they knew he wanted Pep.

 

[Silva2021]

Why is it easy to see that we are his choice? If we are his choice and it was easy to see, there would be no debate would there?

If he does go to united then surely they are his choice!

I should have said preferred choice, he is not here because we have been unable to agree a deal with Arsenal.

 

[Ric]

I think it’s fairly safe to assume that no-one knows for certain how this will play out at this stage. Very much in the balance.

True. It will be interesting se see how much he value a PL medal for instance.

Thought they were paying the Swedish Ego more than that ?

In the summer he would've cost £60-70m, not really Bayern's style to pay that much so that could plausibly be why they dropped out. PSG, however, are practically made of money and have proven they're willing to pay whatever a player wants.

Maybe they thought mbappe and neymar was more important so shelved the idea of signing him. Starting to believe he is more of a mercenary than people give him credit maybe he played us. Only wanting pep in a way to drive up wages from elsewhere.

From Sanchez point of view we could want him the most and may have been working on a deal and in communication for along time.

United may now have choose to throw money at him, but it seems this is recent and strikes off a chance signing as opposed to a targeted one.

I’ve thought all along that 20m was not a realistic offer. If they’re looking for 35 + 15 signing on fee that’s crazy money (if that’s true). If those figures are to be believed and they’re not willing to compromise we should walk away.

I think the biggest problem for most people is that this is now a war with United. If we were up against PSG I don’t think there would be such a big issue.

I don't think it's "crazy money" in the current market it's still a bargain.
