Benjamin Mendy

According to The Sun, Monacco want us to match the £50mil paid for Walker.

Can't wait for Txiki to showcase his skills and negotiate a £53m deal with £1m in addons.

The cunning fox he is.

 

[MCFC1993]

Was he not over 60 mill?

No, £43m.

As frustrating as it might be, we cannot just offer the asking price straight up, even if we do end up paying it anyway. If we offered what Monaco wanted at the first bid, it's likely that they would only want more money on top of that.

From 39.5m which was quoted 1st and now 54m ....FFS

 

[Blue Coop]

We should have signed Mendy first.

So much for "homegrown" tax.

Could just save £20m for a CB and get Bertrand.

 

[kupest]

44.5 should be more than enough for him. Monaco is risking us moving on from him to plan b at this rate.

BREAKING: @ManCity have £44.5m bid for left-back @benmendy23 rejected by @AS_Monaco - Sky sources. #SSN

Ah. The famous "Sky Sources".. No quotes anywhere. Lets wait and see :)

 

[MCFC1993]

It's our most needed position, so we are getting bent over.

Might as well give it them and save ourselves 2 weeks of arsing around before eventually caving in.

Only other option is go and sign a cheaper back up and then see if Monaco give in.
