Florian Wirtz

Problem is him. He and his father prefers Bayern.

If he wants Bayern and Bayern want him…. He is only going to Bayern..
I hope this does not turn into a Kane/ Bellingham/ Rice saga.
Get the answer from Wirtz, read the room and go somewhere else.

Well that's why Gibbs-White link suddenly appears, doesn't it?

Thing is, Leverkusen obviously wants to sell to City, but the guy wants Bayern, so they probably set a higher price for them? That can make Bayern hesitate and try to negotiate, etc, hence they don't renew Muller.

Classic Bayern. Thankfully we’ve been all over him for a while as well.

Sounds like they're backtracking a bit

Sounds like an attempt to deflect their usual tapping up actions

quite something when Dortmund were their biggest rival in the league they ended up getting Lewandowski, Hummels, Goetze from them.

when its Leverkusen they go for Wirtz maybe others too.

Leipzig did well selling abroad likes of Olmo, Gvardiol, Nkunku, Szoboszlai but then after all this their level has just dropped...

 

[Keeper!]

I see Uli's spell in jail for tax evasion has not changed the utter arrogance and grifting traits of the fat bastard.

If Bayern want him sadly they will get him, I just hope we drive the price they have to pay sky high.

Why do we have an inferiority complex when it comes to Bayern, Real and Barcelona?
And where does the 'he wants Bayern' come from?
Did KDB go to Bayern? Did Erling? Did Gvardiol?
Did Sergio go to Real?

I also suspect that I am like most here and cannot recall actually watching him play.

None of the players you mentioned are from the country the clubs you mentioned are from

And neither, therefore, did they have any desire to play in England, nor Sergio, David, or others to stay here. This idea that every German footballer dreams of playing for Bayern is like every English footballer dreams of Manchester United. It's old-hat, IMO, and as many will utterly despise Bayern as love them.

A very confusing post?

Reports that Leverkusen are interested in Ortega and McAtee - makes sense to start conversations using them both as leverage (if true).

i think the issue is convincing Wirtz to sign with us over Bayern and Madrid

Understand, but we have the leverage of KDB is going and we are looking to build a new generation of team around someone. I don't think either of those teams have that, IMO it's not a done deal.

To be fair, at least Bayern still guarantee trophies. Well, except for Harry Kane.

Gibbs-White has been put out by his agents, Stellar.

They also rep Grealish and have promised another client to City to let him leave.

Gibbs-White has two years left on his deal, so Stellar are trying to play Forest and City off.

What do you mean here Tolm?

MGW has been promised to us in exchange for us promising to let Grealish leave?

agree 100%

if we overcome the challenge of convincing Wirtz to want to come to City, then it's in our hands.

i wonder if Gundo has ever had the "come to City its great here" chat with him

i would have thought that letting Grealish leave was as simple as "bring a good offer and we'll consider it"

just like it is rumoured to be with any player
