I’m not so sureAlthough it looks nailed on that he is leaving

Pretty clear that we are at the table and so are Barca so a deal is likely to happen. Citys price is clearly not the 1bn that some on here think he should be sold for.
So when Dortmund buy up young talent for 10-20m they should let us take them off their hands for double what they paid?I understand that people want as much as we can get, but we paid about 20 mill for him, so doubling our money plus any add-ons we can get, would look good on our books, towards other signings.
Maybe his injury was a godsend for the re-emergence of Sterling, because if he wasn't injured, do we believe he would be in our starting line-up regularly?
I suppose he can see this himself, with the talk of a striker signing as well, he knows his opportunities will be limited for us. I feel this would be one of the main reasons for dropping down a level to join Barca, along with going back to Spain.
I don't feel that we are doing them any favours by accepting something around 40 mill plus add-ons, it is a business decision as far a City will be concerned, and we don't usually stand in the way of anyone that wants out.
That would be £500m then...Very true, best for all.
It clearly also isnt the '1penny more than we paid for him is still technically profit so just take it' that others here would be delighted with.
lets hope the truth is midway between 1bn and 1p then.
That is such a childish outlook.So when Dortmund buy up young talent for 10-20m they should let us take them off their hands for double what they paid?
It has to be said it is a cracking idea for the buying club at least.
Of course we will be doing them a huge favour our club is over run with Barca fans for life and at some point in their life they will be back in the Barca fold.
