It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

[Alan Harper's Tash]

no, maybe after his contract here thoguh

Sounds like he’s pretty relaxed, is happy here and happy to see what happens next.

 

[Delphinho]

It does feel like it could be the end of the Pep era, which makes sense having won 4 in a row and a treble.

If they all went, maybe Pep would get the hunger back to develop the new team!

One can but dream.

Some optimistic fees: Bernardo 50m (RC), Cancelo 25m, Phillips 25m, Couto 30m, McAtee 25m, C.Doyle 10m, Perrone 10m, Gomez 10m, Kabore 5m + THB and T.Doyle already done for 25m.

That would be 215m before any other big departure, with Ederson, Walker, Kovacic, De Bruyne and Alvarez all linked away. Reckon max 2 of those 5 leave, with the first two the most likely

 

[Shazza458]

That sounds like he’s gone doesn’t it?

That’s the impression I got too

I guess we’d collect a bigger fee selling him this year which is the only positive. We’d have to put down serious money for a replacement of the likes people want - Musiala, Wirtz and Xavi Simons. We’d lose that experience too and I can’t see us signing any of those mentioned this window

I think Dani Olmo would most likely be our Kev replacement if he went this window, which is far from ideal

£200m+ with only 2 first team players being sold would be crazy!

PSR might kill the market though.

 

[houraisen]

Let the players who have lost the will to play here go. We need a new hunger and motivation to win five in a row.

If Kev went now what we would get , £100m? The only transfer to do this summer to replace would be musiala?

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

The club have a decision to make on Kev, and not an easy one.

If they get the sense that he won't be renewing again, they have to consider whether to cash in this summer.

If the MLS is his next destination then it doesn't matter - they won't pay a fee worth losing him early.

But if it's Saudi? That's probably not far off £100m you're saying no to.

I'd find that very difficult.

 

[dave_blue12]

If it’s true that City are offering a new contract on much reduced wages he’d be a fool not to seriously consider any offer from SA.

 

[Gaz (FMwkdsoul)]

Doubt he's for sale now Vinny is there. Tuchel staying was the best chance of the players staying fed up.

 

[Haaland94]

The fuck is this. i doubt he wants to do reverse Aguero and play anti-ball. Also they would need to cough up a lot of cash for him

Yeah, they can't afford him. Also, Julian would have to ask to leave because we ain't letting him go otherwise. I doubt it all. The last thing we need is losing him right now.

 

[Shazza458]

If Kev went now what we would get , £100m? The only transfer to do this summer to replace would be musiala?

I reckon £100m yes - for Musiala this summer you would have to put down an outrageous offer

Easily £130/140 or maybe even £150m

Can’t see it this window - summer 2025 more realistic if he doesn’t sign a new deal

 

[Franknorgrovesnephew]

You mean like a striker that has won two golden boots in two season on top of breaking records...

You're a grade A tool.

Constantly posting absolute shite on here, You talk absolute rubbish.

Does it on a daily basis

 

[mancityscot]

If De Bruyne goes, he goes with my best wishes. Owes us nothing...

except a £100million transfer fee.

 

[RayCTID]

Kev would be bettter suited playing in the MLS but again it still a too soon to cut him loose. Hopefully he still has the drive to play for City.

 

[richards30]

Doubt he's for sale now Vinny is there. Tuchel staying was the best chance of the players staying fed up.

Only a year left on his contract though mate and say we offered €130m they would have to think about it?

 

[Gaz (FMwkdsoul)]

his contract is up in 2026.

 

[abu13]

Ederson, Walker, Gomez, Bernardo, De Bruyne, Alvarez, Kovacic… if we were to believe all these rumors we’d barely have any players left by the end of the transfer window

It would hurt but I wouldnt be surprised if Kev, Berny and Alvarez all look to move on this window.

 

[richards30]

his contract is up in 2026.

Oh shite , ruins my theory then! Who else would be possible?

 

[Shazza458]

Could just say he isn’t for a sale and no offer will be entertained

 

[Dr Jacoby]

I like Alvarez but I don’t see where he fits in if he’s not playing as a striker.

If someone were to come in with an offer of £60m+, we should seriously entertain it.
