How did the F De Jong signing play out, we never really heard if they were in or out of the race. We definitely were in but it just played out as Barca was his choice in the end as they offered more money (so we were lead to believe). I’m not convinced we are out of this one just yetNone of this makes much sense to me. City supposedly pulling out because Real and player have agreed some terms, even though Real apparently will be offering 50 million less than Dortmund want?
Even if that was true, City wouldn't be walking away. Surely we would be leaving a bigger offer to Dortmund to at least make Real pay more, or to make them keep Bellingham for another year and then sell for 50 million less next year if they want to.
