Diego Godin

[bluemoon98]

But Demi said last night he loves us all ;-)

 

[George Hannah]

Remember our reluctant ITK's meeting with Rubén! Godin was the player discussed I believe.

 

[Keith Moon]

It seems to make sense that he might leave in 2016 but we would have to pay a years wages if we want to let him go now.

Not if he wants to terminate his contract, theres also been River Plate officials talking about getting him this summer,.

 

[Sergio Picasso Aguero]

Makes sense if he is MDM's replacement as 1 of our senior CB's

Diego Godin
Raheem Sterling
Kevin De Bruyne

Would be very happy if these were our 3 summer signings

 

[TRUE BLUE NO1]

So Athletico have sold Miranda and Aledrwerield and might be selling Godin too?

Lomas....by the sounds of it......Godin has a 40mil euro release clause so not alot Athletico can do if we willing to activate the clause..my only question is, Would Godin be a better buy than Otamendi?....Otamendi is a few years younger...

Manchester City betting very strong by Godin
The English team is willing to pay 40 million clause Uruguayan Central and multiply your salary. Now comes a move to Atletico.

 

[George Hannah]

Right footer although plays mostly on the left side.

 

[Keith Moon]

Maybe also worth to mention that Pep has tried to sign Godin a couple of times.

 

[Ajm1985]

Godin is world class and his organisational skills would be fantastic for us. Can't see this happening however.

[DMA's]

Fantastic threat from set pieces also. Would love this to be true!

 

[Le Havre Oswald]

Don't believe this, I don't believe that Demi desperately wants to leave now either. He would have made that clear a few months ago.

If it is true, however, I think it would cast serious doubt over Mangala's long term future, as if we had any confidence in him we would find another experienced stop-gap centre half.

that reminds me. I saw mangala in sainsburys the other day. The one on regent road.

 

[CityForever45]

get him

Our defence.

A horribly off form, mistake prone defender who's possibly facing a natural decline anyway

An inconsistent big money purchase who could go either way but shows promise and worries in equal measure

A kid who's never even played a PL game

A veteran who has one season left in him - yet is our best defender by some way imo

... if you don't want to sign the closest thing to the Messi of CBs I don't understand at all.

 

[Kinkladze 1]

We buy him we win the league, KDB or not.

This all day long. I'm going to say it again. Best. CB. In. The. Wooooorld.

 

[CityForever45]

Pelllegrini had him at Villarreal , so he'll know the system right away

Yes he would be a miles better signing than Otamendi imo. Much more reliable & much more brains & much more likely to defend corners in the Prem. But I'd be shocked if we sign a cb.

 

[bugsyblue]

He's turned us down... well that was quick.

Staying at Atletico and ready to sign an approved offer according to Marca.

 

[petrov17]

He would be an awesome signing.

Would love to see Denayer in our top 4 CBs though. He looks class and ready.

The problem is Demi was our best CB last year but I imagine would be the one to go.

Doesn't sound dead according to this.
