What if we pay £100m now and leave him there for the year? If that pleases the player and dortmund and builds a strong relationship between the 2 clubs, its beneficial for us. Dortmund will always have the 'next' big thing, for eg reyna and the young striker they have already to take over from haaland next year.
City and dortmund could easily benefit each other, they take prospects off us, develop them, we have a reasonable buy back clause or a big sell on fee. This could be the start of a new agreement between the 2. It would also stop bayern taking the piss all the time, hopefully.
