Do we have any interest in him still? And do Barca still want sterling ?

So is there something in the rumour or do you not know? Blue oli hinted that big names were coming this summer, i’d class him as a big name.Totally agreed.
After Phil and Kev, FDJ is the player I love to watch most in football.
You can't coach technique and intelligence and that is what Frenkie has.
If Pep gets hold of him and his fitness up another notch, he would be our De Bruyne long-term replacement, dovetailed with a Rodri back-up, when needed.
Love, Love, Love this player.

I would love to have him at City.. please Txiki go on.
does Barca want to sell more or the players wants change of scenery more?
not sure why Xavi would not want his midfield built around de Jong. and if they wanna make money they still have so much flop/dross like Dembele, Umtiti, Langlet on higher salary to get rid of...
also the only way we could make him a starter here if we sell Bernardo which is the last thing I want. he might be able to play the role of Rodri, but his defensive skills are nowhere near as great but in return he is much more creative than rodri in terms of forward passing and creating even scoring goals, making great runs into the box etc.

That hasn’t been the case at this point, which is why, if they sell, it wouldn’t be a shockdoes Barca want to sell more or the players wants change of scenery more?

I've heard that his agent is still alive so should be easier than the Harland deal.

Don't know, on either.
Was just in response to the fresh link.
Barca and Xavi want to keep him but apparently he's not happy there.does Barca want to sell more or the players wants change of scenery more?
