Nothing to do with his age.That's a lot to carry for an 18yr old,it'll never happen imo
He's been a number 1 for two seasons for club and is an international.

The papers always throw silly numbers at City transfer targets and today the spread is between 20-30m.Yes he would
Not with 12 months left on a contract. He'd be free to negotiate a free transfer and £20m signing on fee inside 7 months of today's date.considering the price wunderkind's are now going for and this lad has 2 full seasons already I think it'd be more like 60m+. Hard to pry Italians out of Italy though so I'll remain skeptical.
didn't know the contract was coming up, good news.Not with 12 months left on a contract. He'd be free to negotiate a free transfer and £20m signing on fee inside 7 months of today's date.

No way it would be 50m with a year left. Even Mbappe wouldn't command that if he had 12 months left.
But they'd pay 40% of what we would.didn't know the contract was coming up, good news.
On the other hand then, wouldn't be surprised if Buffon rides off into the sunset if they win the CL and they earmark this guy to be his 15-20 year successor. They probably already have.
I think your probably right, his agent is Mino Raiola, whose other players include Pogba, Ibra, Mkhitaryan etc.I doubt he is coming at all but that's just me
City normally get their business (with the player) done early doors and don't end up bidding against another team (see Sterling, Jesus, KDB). The fact that several news sources have said the same thing on the same day suggests to me that we have agreed terms with the player and will now be the only club he will move to.He's a unique talent and there will be plenty of suitors. All it takes is two clubs with deep pockets and a desperate need for a keeper. He's also only 18 so in terms of value for money 50 million could be a steal..
