Khaldoon and Pep have both gone on record really definitive to say they want him here. Too definitively if you ask me. When Pep said in the autumn "it's up to Sergio, I want him here but it's his choice" that relaxed me, it's an honest answer.
The fact that they've both gone out of their way to answer a question they don't have to answer that definitively is very suspicious and reeks of "we didn't want him to leave, but..." preparation.
That doesn't mean I think he's leaving, or that they will push him, but that they're covering their tracks for the inevitable shit fest that would come if he did leave because It became clear Jesus or Sanchez or both were ahead of him.
It's groundwork for a possible departure once he loses his automatic starting role. And courting and pricing up Mbappé is probably part of the same groundwork.
Paints a pretty ugly picture to be honest. We are looking more like Judas every day if this is true. I'd be ashamed.
