Thanks for taking the time to sign up for the forum to let us know. This thread should be closed now obviously.

I'm only passing on what I've heard.

Interestingly your signing of Haaland might play an even bigger role in the influence of this transfer as Dortmund weren't prepared to sell him in the summer because they didn't want to lose both players in the same window. If Haaland didn't move then Bellingham would likely already be at Liverpool, whereas next summer Liverpool probably won't look like quite the same level of attractiveness as they did in 2022. From almost winning the Quadruple to playing in the Europa Conference League!

I personally dont believe anything i read right now from the newspaper journos. They will write what they write. I personally feel somethings going on at city its quiet in terms of midfield targets ect which signals to me that weve got something lined up and the only target with been linked to is bellingham unlike the scousers.

The journalists have got absolutely fuck all to report one way or another. Bellingham is playing in the world cup and presumably not talking to his camp about possible movements, he's not going in January to anyone, and the clubs involved should be doing their work quietly. I for one think the lack of noise around City is a good sign, and if we were to get him what we are seeing now from the Liverpool and Bayern media is exactly what you'd expect to see at this stage in the process, but that's tea leaves and confidence projection. There is a trusted itk here who reports with their ear close to the ground in good faith and without bluster, so I assume there is a grain of truth that City, Pep, Akanji and Haaland all feel positive about the direction of travel, and that all fits with City's medium term plans and recent market activity.

Someone better tell Dortmund they don't want to sell to us, because that's not what the impression they gave us last month...

I've seen and heard all this before, next month he will have bought a house in Liverpool, which is strange because their players all choose to live in Wilmslow, Knutsford and Hale (wonder why?)

It's running the same way as Grealish and Haaland, everyone being mentioned but us...

Remember when Pep was going to United despite an agreement in place for months...

I'm telling you now, why is the Dipper narrative being turned up to the max?

It's because them and others can't bring themselves to entertain or contemplate Jude in a City shirt and what it will mean for the rest.

It's a classic case of wishing for something to be so true, they convince themselves it actually is.

None of these people now claiming to have the inside track were piping up until Bellingham blew up at this World Cup.

Whereas City have been working at this for weeks and I am hearing it is already boxed-off.

maybe he could buy one of those houses that the dippers compulsory purchased and threw the occupants out. He could have a door through to the ground and go and sing you’ll never brick alone every night.
Thanks Tommie for bringing some balance.

Just another night following day in the media world.

Ahh, but we will miss the multitude of posters who shit the bed whenever a linked player is discussed in the media as going elsewhere if we go with common sense.
Plus, the said posters who shit the bed are far more entertaining to read than the actual reporting on the transfer.

Right posting info if I get some, same guy that told me RB Leipzig were after a CB when Gvardiol was linked to us. German info I trust him with as he does get it right most of the time . You can believe it or not up to you. Posting in good faith

Been told by him Liverpool are favourites but there's a huge but, they want to pay 90 mil with bonus. Dortmund want 150 million euros up front no bonus like a release clause.

That's what the advance negotiation is about. Like Berger has been saying they want a bundesliga record fee. Bayern, Real Madrid all put off by the fee. Dortmund not budging.

Basically 150 mil up front and he goes. Liverpool apparently trying to bring the fee down but Dortmund are not budging. One other club silently working in the background that Dortmund don't want to sell to.

Why wouldn’t Dortmund want to sell to us? We seemed to negotiate well with them over Haaland and Akanji. And it’s not like they’re in our league so worried about rivalry. I just don’t understand why Dortmund or any other foreign club would hate us but like Liverpool. Especially if we can pay what they’re asking and nobody else can.

It seems to be the go to statement on here when it comes to players we might potentially sign
It's like nobody in world football wants to deal with us, except when they do...
 
For the record I just want to say that I have absolutely no idea about Bellingham's preferred club, wages or length of contract I know nothing at all about a possible transfer . Lol !!!
 
I choose to believe that Jude has said "yes" to coming to City.

I choose to believe that Dortmund has given City a valuation which we are comfortable with.

I choose to believe, that like the Haaland deal, this will be for a figure quite lower than the reports and speculation lead the masses to believe that it will be.

But until such a time as this all happens, I believe that I will witness The Boys In Blue win a 3rd straight Premier League crown, a first ever Champions League title and most importantly of all the rags will have been beneath us in the table for a DECADE.

That, combined with Jude Bellingham showing up at the Etihad for his physical will initially cause nuclear tantrums amongst our haters who will talk of the 150M transfer with the extra 75M in agent fees to go along with the 900k/wk salary...

But reality will set in. This isn't their time, it's ours. Has been for awhile now.

Dortmund's incoming manager might have something to say.

Looks that way. Your guy is not holding back. His reputation will either take a big hit or an elevation to ‘ITK God’ after this!

I’m a bit gutted as I was starting to get my hopes up, but after reading that last post….deflated.

Again, thank you. This transfer forum wouldn't be the same if we didn't have random non-City fans signing up so they could fill us in on the scoop that their mates gave them.

You're very welcome! :)

I will let you know if I hear anymore. It depends if they meet up at St Georges park again before the summer transfer window? Not sure if England have any games before then?

We can call it now following the comments yesterday of the PSG president...simply spoke of his obvious admiration for Bellingham to a loaded question...

One English or French media claptrap will produce a wages puff piece claiming PSG are now willing to blow everyone out the water and pay him £600k a week, so Liverpool are in a race against time to conclude their takeover or buy-in.

...While City are offering Jude £750k a week and £150m.
