De Bruyne?

TRUE BLUE NO1 said:
Thanks for posting Sergio!

Genuine question.....are we in a position where we need to now sell players to make room in the squad for new signings?.....from reports, it seems like De Bruyne would be seen as a direct replacement for Joveitc, which is why we wanting Milan to speed up the deal..

I think we want to clear the foreign spots possibly considering we currently have a full compliment of 17.

De Bruyne for Jovetic, Pogba for Dzeko. We don't want to be stuck with a senior player unregistered.

We don't have FFR restrictions anymore. So my guess is we don't need to sell before we buy foreign.
 
Just because we don't need to sell first from FFP perspective doesn't mean we're willing to throw away millions in the fee and pay the extra wages by not selling. If an Italian club in a buyers market is the option we are left with then we get shit loan and option to buy offers. Doubt the board want to be taken the piss out of with this. They are running a business after all

Daily Mail: City will offer an initial £40m for De Bruyne but are prepared to go as high as £50m to fend off competition from PSG.

Jesus christ, good negotiation tactic to say that we offer 40 but are going to offer 50 if they dont accept.

The media knows fuck all
 
That's how you do it. I would continue to offer more even when they accept just to be sure.

Fuck it. £100m.


£110m.
 
Papers talk absolute shite!

I'm just hoping we can agree fees for both Jovetic and Dzeko in the upcoming days to help clarify our next move. Would Edin not be open to a move the other way back to Germany as part of the De Bruyne deal?

Martin Blackburn has said a bid 40m is on the way in the sun today. Seems all the press have got hold of it. Sure Wolfsburg would be slightly easier to negotiate with.
 
I think like Sterling, this is a one club auction again due to the player only wanting us.

PSG or anyone else are simply not in the running imo.
 
Don't think city would bother bidding if they new he wasn't interested in coming.
Will have spoken to the player first hence the bid going in.
Think this ones just about the fee.imo
 
Think the first Sterling bid was about £35m from what I read,can't remember.Obviously we settled at £49m.
Can see Wolfsburg doing the same and sitting on their hands unfortunately.
