We were prepared to offer than amount for Joao Felix 2 years ago so I would hope City wouldn't think twice about offering it for Haaland.It might seem like that. But just because we aren't willing to spend 80m on Harry Maguire. Doesn't mean that we wouldn't spend 100m+ on a player of Mbappes/Haalands quality.
I do think we are willing to go to 100m+ to replace Aguero.
If you watched the extended highlights you would have seen that he’s rapid.
The tweet literally says the club is willing to go above the 65m buyout clause and waive the sell on clause for Sancho....I hope no one in our club thinks we're getting him for 65m. If that's the type of budget, don't bother and look elsewhere.
I doubt anyone in our club does, unless we plan on waiting for his release clause to kick in.I hope no one in our club thinks we're getting him for 65m. If that's the type of budget, don't bother and look elsewhere.
I am just saying, it'll take double than that, so having to go over 65m should be pretty obvious.The tweet literally says the club is willing to go above the 65m buyout clause and waive the sell on clause for Sancho....
Nobody will be paying double that this summer. I can’t see any club paying much over £100 mill for a player that will be £65 mill next summer. Not sure there would be many that could afford it, I’d go as far as to say we are the only club that really only need to spend on one position and could afford around 100 mill on one player.I am just saying, it'll take double than that, so having to go over 65m should be pretty obvious.

It is potentially the only chance anyone will get to sign him. Clubs will go to any free they can afford. Wherever he goes next I think he stays for the best part of a decade.Nobody will be paying double that this summer.

Okay, assuming every team with covid has made huge losses, don’t assume we know they have, assume as at the moment FFP only allows merging of last tears and this years accounts . Which teams can afford to drop more than 100 mill on one player.?Don’t be naive
Think that’s the point go to any fee they can afford. Covid has completely changed what is affordable this summer.It is potentially the only chance anyone will get to sign him. Clubs will go to any free they can afford. Wherever he goes next I think he stays for the best part of a decade.
Most clubs can't afford him though. There's us, United, PSG, Chelsea and maybe Madrid. Out the 3 English clubs, we're the most attractive prospect. PSG & Madrid either have Mbappe, or want him.It is potentially the only chance anyone will get to sign him. Clubs will go to any free they can afford.

You underestimate how desperate the rags are lol. Also, madrid has a fuckton of deadwood to offload, even to dortmund specifically (jovic, mariano)Nobody will be paying double that this summer.

Possibly, though Haaland also goes where Haaland wants to go. I don’t know his preferences. If though he was desperate for any particular club he has the option of waiting a year if that club can’t afford him this year and ask him to wait a year for his clause to kick in. Thats just speculating though. I really haven’t seen anywhere that he has any single club that he wants to play for.You underestimate how desperate the rags are lol
The best thing we can do to get him is keep playing at this level until the end of the season. He keeps liking Foden’s posts on Instagram, especially after big games, so I think he’s watching. Doing well in the Champions League, which is his biggest goal in terms of winning, too.Possibly, though Haaland also goes where Haaland wants to go. I don’t know his preferences.

If we're willing to work with Raiola, we could easily pay the agent's fee & sign-on bonus in 12 months. They know we're financially secure and they're not businesses with large overheads, they'll get it in a year. That means we just have an 80ish mil initial fee.I dont think the fee is going to be that high for Haaland in terms of a transfer fee. It certainly wont be over 90/100m.
Could very easily be 70m cash, Sancho cut waived and Braaf or something. Dortmund will take that over 80m from Real.
The competition will be in what clubs offer for wages and what Raiola gets. We have history of walking away over these terms before but perhaps we will make an exception here.
