Bruno Fernandes

[HaalandEffect]

Florentino Luis i assume

Lets wait to see who's leaving before getting too happy about it.

I suppose the candidates for leaving are all well known. Danilo, Gundogan, Delph, Otamendi. I don’t see Mahrez leaving just yet, as bad as he’s been.

And possibly one of Sané, Aguero or Jesus. Jesus being the least likely, Sané depending on his contract situation and Aguero depending on whether signing Felix requires a striker sale.

Bruno in means either Gundo or Silva out.

Felix in means one of Mahrez, Jesus or Sané out.

 

[Sir Joe Aguero]

Would much prefer him to Felix.

 

[Ric]

Would much prefer him to Felix.

Sounds like this one is much further down the line than any potential deal for Felix.

 

[Don Corleone]

Would much prefer him to Felix.

Different players aren't they?

 

[Sir Joe Aguero]

Yeah, just feel it’s a lot of pressure on the kid, especially with a £80mil or whatever price. They have 6 players with 10+ G&A so he could just be looking good in a good team.
Is he a striker or false 9/second striker? Because we don’t really use them and why change a winning formula? If he’s going to be playing attacking midfield, I’d rather Foden got the minutes. Plus, Bernardo should be playing there and either Sane or Mahrez on the wings.

That’s assuming we don’t sell any key players. I just feel it’s a lot of variables and tinkering for a young player with one good season under his belt.

Do either of you guys know anything regarding the rumours of a release clause with bruno? Many outlets saying different things but surely a release clause should be pretty easy to find out or is it often a bit of a mystery?

Honestly not a clue. I'm nowhere near as clued up as some about the logistics etc. I just know some people who know stuff! Haha. Just know BF is very likely.

What's going on Felix? Is this a simple approach, or is this a more advanced step?

You're never going to get those stratospheric fees when the club is selling voluntarily.

Dembele cost as much as he did because 1) Dortmund were desperate to not sell and 2) Barcelona were desperate to appear to replace Neymar adequately after that transfer had put the club into a crisis & 3) Everyone knew Barca just got €222m dropped in their laps.

I'd be surprised if we got £80m for him.

I don't expect us to get dembele money but 80m is way too low.

No way we sell Sane for less than 100m
