Erling Haaland saysBig possibility. Wirtz 's father has been talking to Bayern for ages and then there is Real Madrid. Possibly Alonso's next home. The price would be around 120/130. City won't stump it immediately.
Wirtz has zero connections to city my guy. He is a German through and through.Erling Haaland says
Was going to Madrid/Barca/Bayern and others apparently .. ‘Ickle Siddy couldn’t possible get him’
We forget how strong a pull we are sometimes:
- Enormous financial clout (for club and player)
- dominant team in World’s biggest league for most of adult life of all our main targets
- one of best 2 teams in Europe the last 10 years
- worlds best coach TM
- Worlds best facilities (or Top 3 at least)
Is this guy any good? Not seen any linksGiven our success, our fanbase is peculiarly negative when it comes to whom we may sign. I have no idea whether we will sign Wirtz or Tom Cobbly and all, but we are in the mix for the world's very best players. We have the money, and have been one of Europe's elite for more than a decade.
How could you or anyone in here possibly know whether it has Bellingham written all over it or Haaland. You can’t nobody can. Its just a guess.This has got Bellingham/Rice written all over it. We’ll end up signing the Southampton lad for £80m in the last week of August.

This is my concern, we'll spend all summer chasing a player that doesnt want to come and then get either no replacement for de bruyne or a substandard one
have you read the nico thread everyone saying over paid why did we pay so he;d come no matter what same with marmoush over paying wages for himWhich is exactly why we must stump up the cash straight up. None of this haggling over 10-20m bullshit like Txiki always does. We have to be very quick and very aggressive this summer. We have too many holes in the team to fill. No time for messing around.
No point concerning ourselves about a player of this calibre until the 115/130 is confirmed as being out of the way, then we can start to get giddy. If all goes to plan I expect us to finally start blowing clubs out of the arena.

Yet Erling committed nearly ten years,Exactly. No established elite player would look at City as his preferred destination until we are formally cleared of all charges.
In the case of Wirtz vs City it sounds like a part of the same old transfer fantasy tales. ( I seem to recall Tolmie saying that we had not shown interest in him.)
Different kettle of fish completely.But the club just spent 200m before knowing the result
As well as the 9.5 years renewal to Haaland
ballack went to chelsea =)Top class Germans seem to either stay in Germany or go to Spain. Be surprised if we get him.
If we are in the champions league next season and 115 concludes “well” then we have a slim chance of getting this done given Bayer are mean to move him outside Germany and Bayern don’t appear kean to get him this season. No CL then this or other elite level players doesn’t happen.
