Its obviously zero percent chance we would do a 100m investment on a player only to loan him out. I know we are desperate, but surely everyone understands this is not an option.I'd buy him and loan him back after Christmas if he's not getting enough game time with KDB back. He gets 3 months with the best manager in the world and then can fit back into Bayer.
I would rather sign him next summer when he is more open to move rather than risk buying him now and loaning him back and picking up a major injury.
Not a chance if doesn't want the move this season. Can't force him to sign. Similar to Erling Haaland. Keep in contact with his agent and then work on a deal next summer.Forget that, should try to sign him this summer - if logistically possible. Prices are only going to go up, not down similar to the Rice & Caicedo antics. He'll probably be valued at £200m next summer. Plus, most of the major clubs have now already splashed their cash so the competition for his signature would be less now in comparison to next year.
Exactly, whack 100m on the table in £50 notesSurely Leverkusen wouldnt turn down 105m euros?
