That's what I think will happen too if RSC goes there. It'd be nice for him to move there as a sweetener.

whipper said:MANCHESTER City have won a major power struggle with mighty Real Madrid to capture Germany international Jerome Boateng for £13million.
Real thought they had a deal set up for the Hamburg defender (below) but City have out-muscled the Spaniards in the financial department.
Boateng, 21, prefers the role of centre-half but City boss Roberto Mancini has earmarked him as his new right-back ahead of Micah Richards and Pablo Zabaleta next season.
Boateng, who has played three times for his country, has already told the media in Hamburg that he expects to be a new Blue in time for City’s American pre-season tour in July.
Mancini is delighted to get his man for his problem right-back berth. And Hamburg are pretty pleased, too.
Not so much at losing a highly valued player but the fact that City have now bulged their bank account by £35m in the last 20 months.
Hamburg sold Vincent Kompany to City for £6m and received a £16m cheque for Nigel de Jong.
Both have been excellent buys for City and Mancini is in no doubt that another £13m for Boateng is another great investment.

So many conflicting stories about with this one,what with RSC going the other way.

Just a teensy weensy observation Xavvi - your posts are always very definite suggesting that you are ITK?
Is that just your writing style not to qualify with words such as possibly, perhaps, maybe or hopefully?
Been on GMR this will be the first transfer £11 million, £80 K a week :)mad zab said:whipper said:MANCHESTER City have won a major power struggle with mighty Real Madrid to capture Germany international Jerome Boateng for £13million.

It's nonsense!! He has a clause in his contract that he can go if someone offers £11m. This is why we have been able to speak to his advisors (allegedlly)!!
