I don't think Haaland will move this summer but it doesn't stop us joining the auction next time around even if Kane is signed.
Smarter decision now would be to sign him when he's 24-25. Let him spend 4 years in Spain and join us when Kane is about 33-34. Raiola gets his double pay day and we get a striker entering his prime. (Assuming we get Kane, obviously)

I think it stops exactly that......

Kane comes in for 100m+..signs a 3-5 year contract and then 12 months into it we go and spend another 65m+ on another striker???????? No way that happens....Kane would be 28-29 with 2-4 years on his contract...who is going to pay for him then EVEN IF we were to sell......and there is no way we would do that unless he had been a huge flop

Its not a guarantee that would sign Haaland or will be favourites next summer but there is no harm in joining the auction.
 
I see lots of people echoing this 'kane is desperate to join city' latch. Can I politely ask, where the fuck is this coming from?

If it is a rumour of him supposedly telling spurs he he wants to leave, and a rumour from months ago saying he asked Sterling what it's like up north, then im sorry to say, it is horsepoo.
He's desperate to win team trophies (and that's from the horses mouth I believe), given we need a top striker anyway we must be top of his wish list. He's got a former teammate in Walker and England teammates in Sterling, Stones & Foden already here (and possibly Grealish :) ). Not to mention Pep.

The stars have most definitely aligned.

There's never any guarantees but I can't understand why anybody would be in denial about this.
 
I don't think we would pay him that from the off, maybe 200k plus incentives, then a promise of extension, wages rise, commercial value rights increasing significantly if he was a success.
If that's the case we are not signing him.

Why would there be an auction if he has a 65 million release clause? Wouldnt all clubs interested just offer 65 million and then its all about where he wants to go and what package he is offered?
 
If the release clause of 65m is true, and he doesn't leave this window, it will be in the realms of many more clubs budgets next year, where as 100m (or above) this summer probably means only us and Chelsea are realistic destinations.

My point was, it is an assumption stated as a given fact. It is literally no different to 'haaland wants to join us because he is 'a blue' '.

I see the sense and links in both if im honest, they could well both be right. Still just assumptions though.

In term of wages it would be. Dortmund could renegotiate with Haaland and takeout the release clause and if they decide to cash in next summer then too get big money

I can't see Haaland renegotiating with Dortmund in order to get them more money. As it stands Dortmund would get €70mill next Summer (or whatever the buyout is) and Haaland gets either/or more wages and signing on fee.

They could improve his current deal for a season and take out the clause (or the very least increase the deal)

But that would reduce his negotiating position 12 months down the line, not a scoobies chance that's happening.

The only way that would make some sort of sense was if he was staying at Dortmund for a good few years yet and surely no one would argue that is a possibility?
