Deal agreed with Bayern Munich for Leroy Sane - €60m (including add-ons)

Say again?

what’s hard to understand I was explaining that the club don’t always get rinsed

 

[Tugay One Cup]

He's played his part in winning 7 trophies since he joined.

I'm not going to be bitter about him leaving, partly because he's never struck me as a player who would stick with us for a long time. But it's been a privilege to watch him play for us. Cracking player.

Then why are we still failing it with the higher profile players. Even the deadwood failed signing we are unable to move on for anything decent. I don’t see we rectified anything if we lost Sancho and now Sane for ridiculously low prices.

Why do you think that is. Do you think we employ idiots? Or do you think we employ people that are among the best in the game that get the best deal possible for the club?

“in the circumstances” being the key bit there.

If Sancho goes for 75 mil plus, we need to coldly assess our football operations people because we have watched money go in the bin here.

not sure what more the club could have done. When he wouldn’t sign a contract last season we were prepared to sell him if the price was right. Then he got injured and missed a year, by which time he was six months away from leaving for free and we had to lower our price

 

[Cotswold Knight]

Good luck to him, never forget his winner against the bindippers which in the end cost them the league
Sad to see him go as he will no doubt become a world beater

 

[Nellies left peg]

Disappointing, but it was on the cards for a while. We'll move on, and hopefully get someone better.

It sticks in my throat to sell him to those Bayern twats but he definitely sulks and goes missing at times whilst sometimes being unplayable. A good fee under the circumstances I suppose

 

[Citizen in Pakistan]

Good luck to him - 60 M is a good price considering the circumstances.

Sancho also refused to sign a new contract

 

[Decepticon]

So where are the moaners now

55m is good business.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Straight out then. Lethal.

Arse....door.
