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

[Steve68]

He played 31 prem games last season and 47 in total, hardly a small amount of games if you are not keen on somebody.

2 games less than last season btw.

And how many of those were starters? Twenty One against 27 the season before. And if memory serves he was injured the season before.

Anyway my points were that I want him to stay but if he wants to go then I think the club will let him go. I’m hoping he signs a new contract and all this mood music is just his agent using Bayern as a negotiating strategy.

If I were a betting man my money would be on him going at this point, even so. But I really hope not.

That's reads like full on straw grasping.

 

[Sky Blue]

He's worth so much more than that. And it'd cost us a lot more to get anyone as good, that's if there is anyone available. Only Hazard fits the bill and we don't seem interested - even if we were I'd rather keep Leroy!



Certainly we won't sell him to another English club. Why would he go to Newcastle!? Would send out a terrible message that we could be 'bullied' by a poorer (financially) and smaller team. We can take players from other big English sides but we need to sell to no-one.

As if.

 

[cadds92]

I reckon we'll end up selling him for something between 80-85 million pounds

I can't see us for example buying someone like Harry Maguire for £70m whilst selling Sane for £80m.

We would look amateur.

 

[Tb1981]

Bayern made four bids for Hudson odoi
They bid £35m for a guy who had never made a perm appearance
So I think we’re looking at £100m
Sad thing is if they are bidding for him I think he wants out

I wonder if chillwell is back on table on left if we get £100m for Leroy

I think he will stay, otherwise he would feel like a twat after getting that big tattoo of himself in a city kit at the ethihad on his back

 

[acess87]

I'm a bit confused. We want to extend the contract but already allow Bayern to negotiate with Leroy? I don't get it.

It’s in his Germany kit isn’t it?? Edit. Sorry, it’s a neutral kit, but has the Nike swoosh...

He didn’t get a tattoo of himself in a city kit. Nor is it the Etihad. Did you even look at it!? He got a black stripe put across it to make it neutral:

Newcastle, where have you got that from?
