It's not a whine about Txiki, just that if he didn't want to renew, no matter how good he is, we won't get a huge fee for him as we (quite nobly in fact) accommodate that future decision from players.

I'll take 4/5 years of goals and any fee for him such is my opinion he'd score fuck loads.

£200m isn't feasible just.

I'd pay £200 million just to watch the media explode.

Even if Haaland went on a free after 5 years, it'd hardly be the worst thing ever if he'd scored about 150 goals and only cost £65m or sumat, would it? Disappointing, but we'd have more than got our money's worth.

I'd personally be disappointed if he "only" scored 150 goals in 5 seasons.

I see thanks haha what do you think the major stumbling block on this deal would be?

Length of contract, I would think. Maybe City want 6 years, but Raiola wants only 5 years.
It won’t be money as City can keep the week wage in line with KDB, and just increase his signing on fee!

This would make some sense. City want six years, would take five, and he's demanding four. Something like that.

In the current market with players running contracts down, I'd be tempted to add a clause that he can never run down a contract beyond the final 18 months (if that's possible) but we'll accept any offer over £150m+.

So, basically, you want to give him a buyout clause
 
From nothing other than a gut feeling,while previously confident this kid would use his head and sign for the club that fitted him like a glove,us.......im now beginning to believe he is leaning towards the pull of Spain.

I think we will end up with Dusan,and that just might not end up being the poorer of the two scenario's.

I was with you but I've changed my mind on this. For City to take the next step as a club we need a superstar. We've been by far the most dominant club in England for 10 years and yet today United are able to boast that they have the biggest social media presence of any club in the world. City aren't even in the top 10.

I know a lot of people will say "who gives a shit?" but the fact is this sort of stuff affects our attractiveness to commercial partners and players, and by extension the sustainability of our success.

United are in a position where they've been run like an absolute shambles for 10 years and they're still, still only a couple of transfer windows away from being serious contenders. They still blow City out of the water with revenue and our deals are still concentrated on a load of businesses in Abu Dhabi.

That's all based on their commercial operation, which has been built on the likes of Beckham, Rooney, Ronaldo, Pogba. Haaland has the same quality, the man is a battering ram and a lightning bolt at the same time, and he hits the ball harder than anyone I've ever seen. He'll be a game changer on and off the pitch.
 
The Dieing Star. LoL!

So the article starts off with United, then Pep's plans are in tatters, and it's a crushing setback.

How to turn an article about United into an article aboutCity, and then put a negative City narrative to it.

And Haaland's determination to go to Madrid this summer has also left the transfer plans of Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola in tatters.

But the Norway and Borussia Dortmund sensation has set his heart on joining Real, in a move that will be a crushing setback for Guardiola after he made the striker his No.1 target ahead of next season.
