Leicester won't sell him for less than £80m. Can't see us paying that amount.

They hold all the cards here, especially with Euros next summer.
To be honest, I can see us paying that amount. He's English, half decent, plus Pep & Txiki must like him if we opened our bidding at more than we paid for Mahrez. If you think about it, for an attack minded coach, Pep's spent a shit load on defenders and seems to have prioritised them since he came here.

Wasn't it only 21 goals conceded in the league last year? Championships are won with a strong defence, it's the reason Liverpool's fortunes changed after spending a world record fee on VVD. Kompany's gone and we need a defensive powerhouse and leader, however try as I might I can't think of a better option for us right now who's proven, available and British.

I agree. He’s a very good defender and a position we need to fill now.
 
Isn’t de ligt (supposed generational player) going to go for less at £65m or something. This is just bloody mad
 
It'll make united up their bid ?

Or maguire has stated he wants city which makes sense. Why join a Utd team that have issues & to be honest not much better than Leicester. A lot of pressure at Utd next year. If we don’t match it he will go to Utd which is where I see him going.

That's on Ajax tbf. They are willing to let De Ligt go and only want a certain amount. Leicester has no reason to let Maguire leave.

Depends on how seriously City want him. I would make him a priority because he's dominant in the air and we are not, and he can play too. Very good fit and would make City very strong defensively for years to come. I like Ake too, but the best target with least risk is Maguire imo.
