It does if they've any plans to sell him, for instance if a club are willing to pay 40m for him we'd be able to buy him back, sell him on and pocket the 15m profit.
Also quite simply , It also benefits them if they want to keep him and we agree not to buy him.

But it expires this summer. Not a really strong negotiating to me
 
As I've stated already, I have no doubts about his quality as a player but it does feel weird we're going for him.

I have to assume that this is a case of if we don't move for him this summer someone else will, when in the long run we'd massively benefit from having him.

He's a ridiculous creative talent. I don't think his technique is quite on KDB's level but his eye for a pass is outstanding.
 
"Move Mahrez on" makes it sound very simple and easy. I don't understand why so many people think like this because we pay high wages and high transfer fees that 90% of the rest of the market can't come close to matching. He's signed up until 2023 and has no incentive to leave, the only way is down as far as I can see. We've not been able to move on Stones or Zinchenko recently, or further back Mangala. It would be nice but I don't see it, especially in the current environment
I agree to a certain degree, however I don’t think it’d be that difficult to ”move Mahrez on” after his return to form, and especially as he’s now 30 (I think). 2 years left on a deal, both PSG and Real have been mooted to be looking at him, which of course I know could be bullshit and spin by agents, but his resale value is plummeting and do we want to be giving him a fresh deal at his age? Consequently, with 2 years to go, if we got a bid of circa £40/50mil, which wouldn’t be too outlandish, then I could see us possibly letting him go. High wages wouldn’t be an issue to those 2 clubs mentioned.

What specific aspect of technique do you mean? Passing precision? My impression is his ball retention is a level above KDB's, closer to Nasri. Haven't watched JG much though, so could be mistaken
 
Speak for yourself, I would ghost in on the far post and score a hatful.

Look , I think he is a very talented individual. I do not want us to sign him for a number of reasons, some technical, some not.
I believe our recruitment is the best in the business, so if they decide to pay a massive fee for the lad, then I hope he proves to be World class.
I tend to stay out of these transfer threads, posters with 500 million to spend in the middle of a pandemic, if City are able to spend a fortune on a player this Summer, you and I know it can only be spent on one special young player.
And yes highlighting the fact that Jack has scored 15 premier league goals is a little nobby on my part.

You sound like a right goal hanger.
