So maybe getting excited for nothing

Ederson
Walker, Messi, Laporte, Cancelo
De Bruyne, Rodri, Foden
Torres, Aguero, Sterling

No hint? Was Khaldoon saying ‘we’re signing players outside the usual age bracket’ not a hint? Or ‘some opportunities present themselves and you have to go for it’ - didn’t just sound like Koulibaly to me.

I doubt it. Would have all happened so fast. re opportunity he was talking about torres, said as much.

 

[bluetonium]

No way he'd do this without knowing where he wants to go. Us and PSG must be the only viable options surely? Crazy time again, have missed this with all the sensible and secretive manner in which we do our business. Just like Limpar, Robinho, Malbranque and Stelios all over again :p

Other option is the board caves in and changes now to keep him there?

I’ve read that Bartemeu can’t leave his term early because if he does he’s liable for their debt incurred under him.

On a free transfer , I'd free up wages and sell this lot without blinking:
Stones, Gundogan, Mahrez, Bernardo, Mendy, Cancelo.

On a transfer fee... it's not going to work. Let PSG have a free run.. and we bid on Mbappe!

 

[PannickAtTheDisco]

we have a thread...

 

[manimanc]

There's more chance of me giving Holly Willoughby one!

I'll go after you then.

He is stating a possibility. It has gone beyond that looks like it

 

[Nellies left peg]

I'll be truly gutted if we don't get him. Everything we have done in the past decade seems like it's been building up to this.

More likely to go to PSG as Messi would fancy 6 hard league games a season rather play in Premier league and every game is a challenge

This is gonna be a great test for the new server Ric :-)

If city are in for him, there is no way this hasn’t been staged and arranged. Messi by saying he’s leaving knows where he’s off too, hopefully in blue next season

 

[SleepingBlueTiger]

This has to concluded quickly if the end of August deadline is true. Gonna be exciting few days.

 

[kaz7]

How do we have the money when our owner cant put money in? Or have we been saving our pound coins in a jar

 

[Blue Smarties]

It's happening.

 

[Silva_Spell]

If he were to come to City we're shit fans if "Feed the GOAT" doesn't make a comeback ...if we ever get back into a stadium again.

 

[Coatigan]

Don't completely rule them out either. Italy's Tax laws and the possibilty of renewing the Ronaldo rivalry in the same league

I'd bet on inter, before i would on us, as his next club

The rest of the prem is shit mate. Messi would walk all over every team. Going to PSG doesn't give him anything. Come to City and you can put to bed a lot of the critics.

I would also say that handing in the request when he’s on £600k a week - you only do that if you have a new contract already lined up elsewhere.
