Never wanted him anyway

Maybe but it seems like City are just distancing themselves from it. I know what you’re saying but just feels like it isn’t meant to be

 

[p.taker]

Probably better off staying in Portugal for now anyways. Don't we have a good relationship with Sporting? If we want him you would think the odds would be in our favor.

Fun fact, no one has assisted more of Foden's goals for City than Raheem Sterling.

How many goals?

 

[Tb1981]

The more I have watched him, the more I am convinced this needs to happen

Never seen him
Still sure he’s better than mendy
I’m in!

Problem is, City are supposedly out

Nuno Mendes is a great player. Very powerful, fast, has good technique,skills, good crosses...

Those figures do seem a bit excessive for an 18 year old defender in a post-Covid economy

He was a protagonist in his team’s first league title in 19 years

I don’t doubt he is a major talent but those numbers still seem a bit fanciful. I don’t know the validity or credibility of the journalist/source but it sounds more like an opening gambit/demand for negotiations from Sporting rather than an agreement

To be honest, I thought the negotiations for this deal were far more advanced than they appear, given that we’ve been hearing about it for many months now

I think City didn’t like the leak that became this cover today

 

[LongsightM13]

True. Could see that we wouldn’t want to distract or piss off Zin or Cancelo before a CL final

Exactly, all rumours, deals etc will go on the back burner until after the final, Pep and Tixki will want to keep everyone on board.

 

[Fiftyyearsandcounting]

The MAIL's take on it is "City plotting another expensive defender".
No such adjective for the Rags looking to spend £65M for another forward.

MEN Reported in the last hour we will put a 52 mill bid in.
