Frenkie de Jong

What about £20m plus Sterling?

Sterling's value to us right now is subjective and will be negligible very soon.

Frenkie, do you remember me?

I would absolutely love Frenkie in our midfield, Gundogan's time looks to have come to an end at the club, quality player but clearly the injuries and lack of gametime have taken its toll.

Sorry @tolmie's hairdoo it's only me and not Frenkie, but I assume that City would be willing if Barca showed interest in a deal ?

I presume that the club are ready to help Sterling out of the door if at all possible rather than risk another mediocre season and fuck all at the end of it. Surely his race is run now ?

I'm sure City could turn that deal around in one phone call.

The players at both ends would snap your hands off.

I'd be pleased for Sterling, but more pleased we had leveraged such a great player in exchange.

Could Barca pay sterling’s wages

they seem to be signing free players to sell but what’s their wage budget like

Wages don't seem to be the issue, more cash flow.

De Jong wages removed would be a considerable saving for Barca, even factoring Sterling on £300k a week.

I'd also argue Raheem would accept less cash to get the right platform and lifestyle for him and his family.

Barcelona ticks every box for him.

Not with 12 months left and £300k a week wages it's not.

Only a handful of clubs in world could get near them wages this summer and we have to accept Sterling holds all the cards.

I'd still put him in the 60 bracket, with the numbers going around.

Great news!

Is there any concern from management, that we came close to signing him before but he turned us down?
