I have a weird feeling that won't be near enough for Sandro and Bonucci. Chiellini and Barzagli are 32 and 36, respectively. With Bonucci being 30, I feel like they'd need to hold onto Bonucci to transition to a defense without those two. If they lose Bonucci, they'd need to go after a new pair of CBs and a backup. Losing Sandro on top of that doesn't bode well with Alves being 34. I feel like they'd require alot more to replace their two established talents and make moves to replenish the entire defense going forward. For now, I'd say just go for Sandro and look for other options at CB.
According to O Jogo, City will soon make formal offer of €50m (£41m) to Juventus.

Juventus is in a good economic position after reaching the Champions League final and this can complicate the negotiation

Sandro would be such an incredible signing, not fussed about the fee whatsoever. We have been saying all season that full backs are our biggest need and if we go out and get one of the best in the world 50m is worth it.
Not nowadays,they will want more !€50m for a left back is a lot to turn down though.
