Is there any links to this guy or is this all speculation at this point?
Great player...would love him at the club
cannot see Bernardo going to Benfica just yet...he wants a big team in a big leagueMe too mate but I sense it’s only wishful thinking and the obscenely small chance Bernardo would agree to go home to benfica now and we could get Enzo that way

every chance we can get him if we convince him. chances are he will go for less than his release clauseNo chance we get this guy

nothing like that. we don't even have a clear link to bellingham other that we are also having a look at him. the truth is the transfer board at city has not yet met to plan the summer buys. the links will emerge in a a couple of months after city have made their transfer plans for the summer.There have been no credible links suggesting a move to City is something either party are remotely interested in pursuing.
The only thing sustaining this thread is a barrage of rabid fan-boying, and links to Chelsea.
A complete waste of time - there’s nothing to see here.

He wants 1 more big contract and to end up at benfica at 32... I don't see why city still can't offer him what he wants!But what happens if said big team doesn’t make an offer for him?

That is true ..It seems him and the wife want the sun mate
That is true ..
I remember reading some quotes where he said that he had a plan to move to the sun on a 4 or 5 year big contract then arrive at benfica on less wages age 32 but him not getting a move at the right time has scuppered his plan. So it's move to the sun and arrive at benfica when your a bit older and passed it or stay at city then return home at 32 like he initially planned. It does leave a bad taste how much money comes into this decision. I couldn't see any European big club offering him a 3 year contract so what's he gonna do!
you seem to have no idea how our club operates even when there are our own city+ documentaries showing exactly how it works. don't be ignorant.That’s plainly not true.
There are plenty of links across the sports media and in chatter from people with connections at the Club that Bellingham is a player City are very interested in.
You may choose to ignore those links, and say they lack credibility, but they are undoubtedly there in significant numbers.
There is literally nothing - unless I’ve completely missed all the links - suggesting any interest in a move to City from either the Club or the player.
Generally deals the size of Enzo to City are extremely difficult to keep under wraps, so do end up getting leaked.
The two situations are not the same.

first of all there is no concrete link saying city is all in for bellingham. the links say bellingham is one of the options city are looking at. but nothing saying he is our number one target.
besides if you need explaining our transfer board meets with txiki around march to review the season and then they decide on transfer priorities. only then they decide which players to pursue and who is our priorities. we will hear about our concrete transfer targets only around march or april and I expect Enzo to be a part of that plans.
Very good question...Im sort of hoping thats what happens, he straightens his head out and returns the player we know he is (signs were there yesterday of the latter already happening)But what happens if said big team doesn’t make an offer for him?

However we also know that Barca, despite wht is reported about their finances every year (ad nausiem in the media) somehow manage to purchase a number of players most summer with their miraculous "leaver" pulling! - If they want him they will find the money....I just hope we dont do them any favours and demand the price we know he is worth (80m upfront)
Apparently there aren't any more levers - according to Pol Ballus - as La Liga weren't happy with how they had essentially tried to get round the restrictions by kicking the can down the road.
They will get the money from somewhere....Apparently there aren't any more levers - according to Pol Ballus - as La Liga weren't happy with how they had essentially tried to get round the restrictions by kicking the can down the road.
This would put the cat amongst the pigeons where Bernie's concerned. Let's see if it's all about the sun & lifestyle, or is it about money & the sun on his back?Dream scenario for me (unlikely as fuck though) no one comes in and we do a deal for Enzo with Bernardo and cash going to benfica that would cover his wages? Still plays champions league football, home with his family? No doubt we would need to give him cash as well but if he fancied it I reckon the club would do it
