Laporte and Cancelo to bring in circa 50/60m. Extra 20 odd for Gvardiol. Job done.
In my opinion, we should sign Gvardiol to replace Laporte and keep Ake as no. 1 at the start of the season. Gvardiol is so young, he will need time to adapt and we are perfectly set up to allow him that time to ease himself into the system as we have Nathan Ake. There’d be no pressure on Gvardiol, he wouldn’t be required to set the world alight from the off. The press will deride us for spending that much money on “a backup” but then in his 2nd season he’ll be an absolute beast and will look a bargain. Calling it now. We’ll play the long game with him, knowing that we have Ake and he deserves to start.One problem with that - where's Nathan Ake?
If he signs a new contract, which he's reported to be doing, i just can't see him being happy sitting on the bench, or us spending €100m on Gvardiol.
Anyone know what kind of wages Cancelo is on? I haven't been banking on getting anything but loan fees for himLaporte and Cancelo to bring in circa 50/60m. Extra 20 odd for Gvardiol. Job done.
I assume high enough, he signed an extension as he was bang in form about 18 months ago.Anyone know what kind of wages Cancelo is on? I haven't been banking on getting anything but loan fees for him

not with his looming release clause.Yeah, Leipzig will make the CL, so it's going to be a tough one regarding the potential fee.
Gvardiol's deal contains a release clause set at £97million ($118m) but does not become active before the summer of 2024.not with his looming release clause.
