I may be getting 2+2=5 here. But tolmie has said hes on his way... he was liking city posts a few weeks back about us being linked with certain players. I think this is quietly already agreed.The only issue with the release clause is there will bound to be more clubs interested
I wouldn't say it is done deal. RB has given some warning about that.https://www.telegraph.co.uk/footbal...transfer-news-premier-league-suitors-told-rb/. Same for any club not just for us.I may be getting 2+2=5 here. But tolmie has said hes on his way... he was liking city posts a few weeks back about us being linked with certain players.

If it a release clause what Leipzig think doesn’t come into itI wouldn't say it is done deal. RB has given some warning about that.https://www.telegraph.co.uk/footbal...transfer-news-premier-league-suitors-told-rb/
They still will have some say on it as the release clause doesn't kick in until 2024. It could turn out as it had happened with Haaland, but its not completely cut and dried.If it a release clause what Leipzig think doesn’t come into it
Okay, missed the 2024 bit.They still will have some say on it as the release clause doesn't kick in until 2024. It could turn out as it had happened with Haaland, but its not completley cut and dried.
Without the release clause it would be ridiculously expensive. I don't think he is going to move in the summer. The next season is our best bet (although the danger is an auction)
I agree with you on that. Its a position that has does not have to be immediately strengthened.A lot more comfortable with release clause auctions since Haaland. If we can grab him, we can grab anybody. He had the choice of every elite club.
Im on the opposite of you i think its agreed. I think theres too much noise of our interest this summer. I get where you come from with it being expensive but with laporte leaving this summer i do think they have something planned. (Leipzig will have there price though). It is around the time of the year we start hearing about our summer signings.Without the release clause it would be ridiculously expensive. I don't think he is going to move in the summer.

RB Leipzig have already denied it and said he isn't for sale. If there was some agreement they wouldn't deny it. They aren't a club that moves their players on after only a couple of seasons (hence the release clause that kicks in 2024). If Chelsea really wanted him then they would of met RB Leizig's high valuation. None of our targets are set instone (including Jude Bellingham)Im on the opposite of you i think its agreed.

they are hardly going to come out midseason and say hes off are they when they are in the midst of a battle in the bundesliga, kind of like dortmund havent with jude. I trust people like tolmie and things like him liking city posts seems a bit odd if there isnt a development there. However we will find out in around 2 ish months or so i guess.RB Leipzig have already denied it and said he isn't for sale. If there was some agreement they wouldn't deny it.

I hope you’re right.. and it is promising with what TH has said. I’m thinking it’ll be a back 3/4 next year, with Gvardiol on the left and Lewis making the 4th on the right when defending. Walker will be sent packing soon, the way he’s going.All the signs of a Tixki done deal for me, I think he will be the first one in and at the end of May.
2024 and the Release Clause kicks in. Another season will not kill us
