Maybe tells you what motivates Little Alfie.
True I mean if it’s about his boyhood team then Leeds would be his destination but maybe that could happen next season or the year afterRuin his career for sure, but will make them both very rich.

believe it or not, clubs have a more in-depth knowledge of potential targets than fans do, going back many many years. It is a multi-million pound business infested with clever greedy and unscrupulous geezers. Occasionally the dark side is revealed when someone blows the whistle, but generally the public have to rely on spurious articles on various media platforms, sometimes naked click-bait, sometimes paid for. It's very much cloak and dagger, given the sums involved, that is not surprising. Tapping-up is just one area and short of a deliberate 'sting' almost impossible to stop.
For fans, we are stuck on the street gazing in the shop window, drooling at the goodies on display, and for City fans especially, value-for-money is not high on the agenda, 'richest club in the world' syndrome if you like. Frustration follows, weakness on the field brings demands for replacement, the club are accused of all sorts, from penny-pinching to incompetence to complacency. We never know the actual details, the t's and c's of any negotiations, even the targets. I'll take the easy way out and trust that the club knows more about everything player-related than i could even dream of. ctid

All true, and I believe City a planning, implementing a massive overhaul of the scouting and recruitment strategy .
In some ways 60 scouts as we have at present is a total overload, more does not necessarily mean better. Look for big changes at City.
