City run a fairly tight ship, but there are various ways these things get out. My rule of thumb is hearing it from numerous sources. It always tickles me to read posters say “no evidence”. I feel certain that Bernardo had a heart to heart with Pep about being homesick etc. He’ll have given the only advice he can give which is speak to your agent I guess. There ain’t going to be evidence. From all the videos they all seem like intelligent adults, Pep will know where each of the players heads are at. Based on multiple source theory I take as read..
Bernardo has multiple reasons for wanting to leave. Mendy Twitter fiasco, proximity to girlfriend, Manchester weather, didn’t expect Pep to stay this long.
Laporte just wants to be the main man, or at least considered first choice to partner Dias. If he isn’t the main man he wants to go somewhere where he is.
Jesus. This one more diluted. All I’ve heard is that Pep loves his work rate and wants to keep him.
Not heard anything else about other names, Sterling etc. I hope Raz signs a new deal.
