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

Would love him to stay but if he insists on leaving I'd rather we go for Wilf Zaha who wants to join a UCL playing club. I think Zaha would be more useful to us in Sane's role than Joao Felix.

Front 3 of Zaha Aguero Sterling would be very fluid.

You are having a laugh,Zaha crashed and burnt at the rags,he has found his level not to mention he is a cheating prick

They won’t be able to afford him at £120m plus wages.
They need wingers this window so will be forced to move on to their next target.
Leroy will then possibly re sign with a £120m buy out imo

We will never give a player a buyout clause.

We will never give a player a buyout clause.

It’s a better option than a player walking away for nothing at end of contract.

It's not something that is we do,we have a whole different policy

It’s a commendable policy. But his value will go down considerably each window.
Next summer with 1 year left we will be lucky to get £50-£60m

A buyout doesn't prevent that.

It would this time around if he signs on for 5 years

I don't think any player in the prem would agree to have a very high release clause,if we keep him this summer and take a hit next summer i think we will do it,there is no-one better in his position who knows the system like he does out there ,we might think it's better to get another season out of him,we would still make our money back next summer and he might just sign a new deal along the way,i could see why we would do that

We maybe at cross meanings here, but a buyout wouldn’t stop him leaving for nothing at the end of that 5 years .
