Josko Gvardiol

[Tony - MCFC]

Our CEO (Soriano) was speaking at the exclusive reveal of OKX as Official Sleeve Partner at the Etihad Stadium today and said: “The commercial appeal of the club has grown spectacularly. We already know that our revenues this last season are going to be over £700 million, more than €800m and close to $900m.

“This will be the historic British record, but could also be number one in Europe and the world.

Magnificent.

Bild have also reported Gvardiol is close to leaving and will be the last exit from Leipzig. No word on fee bid/agreed

Still need to agree fee. Are they speaking or? Taking a lot of time.

In other words, still no news. Leipzig reinforced their stance on the fee. 100m Euros, or they are not even entering negotiations. I sincerely hope we will have a compromise-oriented approach focused on getting this done and not hassling over relatively small valuation differences when negotiating a deal for someone as talented as Gvardiol.

Recently, I lost a big potential customer because my boss instructed me to play hardball and not negotiate our terms. It wasn't worth it. Losing the customer cost us way more than the minor valuation disagreements we were hassling over. In my opinion, we have nothing to prove. We are known to be strong negotiators, and this deal won't change that. We already bend our rules occasionally. For example, we are about to extend Walker's contract at his age. It's worth it sometimes. Just pay the fee, City. It wouldn't be the first time.

We're not even at "packing his bags" stage yet, fair bit to go

I have an image of Josko stood in a doorway not knowing weather to turn back or come through waiting for Omar Berada or Txiki to lump up with a suitcase full of tenners. C’mon City !

I’d be furious if I were a Leipzig fan. Josko, Nkunku, and Szobo all gone in the same window? Awful.

But then again they’ll get 200 odd mil in sales.

 

[Gaz (FMwkdsoul)]

This will get done, lads got an injury wouldn't surprise me if they sent him to Cugat already for the rundown

At the same time that’s the clubs model so you’d understand more or less
