Just hope they don’t ignore the lb question to focus on the cb-issueWell we repeatedly said Ake doesn’t leave until we have someone lined up. So, expect we will
be announcing someone soon. :)

Reported when Spurs and Chelsea were interested early in the window.
I get it, but that release clause wouldn't be active this summer anyway so it solves nothing.And @Mr-Mertle
Just fyi, the only link I had previously seen had 43m. I have no idea what is or isn't the asking price or how far away a guess is, just pointing out what was in my mind when responding and where the difference comes from.

Chelsea and Spurs handed transfer blow as Gvardiol makes RB Leipzig decision
Chelsea and Tottenham may have to wait until next summer before completing the signing of Josko Gvardiolwww.football.london
It’s apparently true. He’s reliable for Barca reports
City will probably use 3 at the back more often next season too. It won’t be hard to convince a top cb to come in. City have Pep and the top level team that anyone would love to play for.I don't think it will happen but I don't see the problem in bringing in a top centre half to replace Ake if he leaves.
May mean that either laporte or stones drops to 4th choice and wants out next summer but so be it. That's the way to improve a squad. Let them go and bring in another top centre half and repeat.
Jack wouldn't of wanted to risk a place in England's national team if he made his move this season. Sterling hasn't stuck aroundHave*
It would have been the same. He had a buy out clause.
Why would we use three at the back more next season? We've had Pep for how many years now and he's shown basically no interest in doing so.City will probably use 3 at the back more often next season too. It won’t be hard to convince a top cb to come in. City have Pep and the top level team that anyone would love to play for.
Example, Pau, Spanish, would probably love to play under Pep and with his national team partner, Laporte.

I geniunely hope not as he is still a valuable squad player for us. The only problem is according to the Times Chelsea are in advanced talks.Is Ake going at all? If so, either Konde or Josko would be good, that' for sure!

I am not totally against bringing an extra player however we still have 3 quality players at CB and there isn't a desperate need for a replacement. The problem is convincing a player with real quality to join us this season.# Have #
You're probably correct about Jack.
Lisandro martinez is still available good defender.Is Ake going at all? If so, either Konde or Josko would be good, that' for sure!

Happy if we get Cucurella for Zinch to be back up.Pep is convinced we don't need to replace Sterling for the left and Zinchenko should fill the requirement for him and the left back rotation.
Hope the lad trusts Pep :)
