Still think we need to sell Laporte before we up our bid if we up our bid! We always seem to let a player go before brining another one in! Pep just doesn’t like a big squad!
 
Laporte also has the same description that you gave above and can hardly find any suitors. No way Gvardiol is a 100 million player, if he were we would had paid it already like we did for Grealish. Gvardiol is not a superstar and comes from a nation with a very small population so we are hardly going to have any money coming from his shirt sells. Furthermore, CB usually cost much less than attackers so paying a premium fee for a defender doesnt seem sensible. Not to mention there is no other club currently vying for his signature. The fair value for Gvardiol is £60 Mill + £5 Mill as an add on sweetener.

Laporte can’t find suitors as he’s injury prone , didn’t play at all last season , has knee problems and is 29 years old. If you’re a buying club and you see that he hasn’t played last season, he has knee injuries and knee problems , your not going to offer 40 to 50 mil for him are you.

Also we do need a CB, especially a left sided one Ake,Laporte are both injury prone , Akes has had hamstring problems / fitness problems, playing 4 CBs a game you can’t rely on a 50/50 of if two of them are going to be fit.
 
I used to like your posts but tbh you’ve turned into a right mard arse, mate
That's a bit harsh. I agree we need to be patient but there comes a time when it might be wise to pull the plug. I assume our negotiation team are capable of knowing when that point has been reached. Time which is starting to slip by will tell.
 
That said, be on the lookout for Leipzig’s pre season game today be Udinese. Could indicate if there have been any negotiations at all. Not definitive obviously, he could yet play. Just in case he doesn’t, might get interesting.
do you think they wouldn’t let him play if there was an agreement or advanced negotiations?

his knee thing yesterday could be nothing, could be a problem, could be a way to stop journalists from wondering why he doesn’t play. we’ll know soon, they will stream the game on their youtube channel.
their media team went from ignoring him to posting a lot about him after romano’s here we go, i don’t think it’s a coincidence. they’re training now but no photos yet.

jack gaughan about the transfer: “we don’t know”

purple panel research account on twitter:
“Understand Manchester City are apprehensive about publicizing Gvardiol's deal to the media, a stance that RB Leipzig respects.

They fear the repercussions it may have on the price point of Laporte's impending departure.

Securing Gvardiol signifies City's willingness to let Laporte go, potentially diminishing their bargaining power. This could pave the way for clubs to acquire Laporte at a cut-rate fee.”
 
It's over according to Sly Sports News.

Manchester City are now at risk of missing out on primary target Josko Gvardiol, according to the latest update provided to by Sky Sports reporter Dharmesh Sheth.(knob!)
