Am I allowed to get on the FDJ hype train despite there being literally no connection or rumours in the past 6 months?!

We want a midfielder, we chased him in the past and he’s hinted at regretting not coming while saying he wants to play in the Prem one day too.

With you on this one, he can’t even get a starting role at Barca, sat warming bench most games. He can’t be enjoying that.

No idea tbh, maybe it’s just the times I’ve looked. Didn’t start midweek against Frankfurt and last time I looked previous to that he was bench too. Certainly only played a small percentage of minutes this season compared to previous.

They could announce it once we trigger the clause -- whether that would be matter of days or weeks before we want to announce it officially, I don't know. There could be a gap inbetween the time at which it's tiggered and the time at which it's accepted... Remember Villa for example sat around killing time for like a week before accepting that we had triggered Jack's clause... and then they released that video from their owner explaining the deal... German club presidents are always speaking to the media so it's not particularly unlikely to happen

So it’s mostly in our control when it is announced?

Depends.

Are we wanting to replace the Fernandinho of a few years ago ie one who goes straight into the first 11?

Or, the Fernandinho of today? ie the one who plays second fiddle to Rodri and plays sparingly?

Neither

Who do you think is likely to leak it, Dortmund? Wouldn't put it past Real Madrid to do it with us facing them in a few weeks time and them knowing they're out of the race. That maybe the paranoid part of me talking there.

Lots of different parties that will need to save face, whether an injury smear, greedy agent, or City paying him £1m a week.
