Kalidou Koulibaly

And probably won’t move for a second option

If we go for a second target now, we'd have to overpay with the season so close

I would find it hilarious if PSG gazumed us. This saga has dragged on for so long i really don't care anymore.

No thanks.

Its scraping the barrel but the alternatives aren't that great either. Saying that Koulibaly isn't worth what ADL wants.

I'd rather not sign anyone than sign the wrong one though.

Apparently PSG are after Koulibaly now according to Di Marzio. Brilliant work from City in this saga, refused to talk to Napoli because of a childish grudge and are likely to miss out on our biggest target.

PSG ruled out signing Koulibaly well before the window even started. Don't fall for newspaper fluff, you think if they wanted Koulibaly after Thiago Silva left they wouldn't have already gotten him? They are set for now and focused on rather other targets for Tuchel, also renewing Mbappe and Neymar. We are the only team in for Koulibaly still, even United's name has been thrown in here. Of course changes happen but if PSG want to pay ADL's €90m asked price then they are the biggest fools in market

Phil Wang’s negotiating skills seem familiar

Don't know why Tolmie says it could be off? Napoli's entire summer window aside Osimhen depends on the sale of Koulibaly because the defensive targets they have will be very cheap and they can also get Boga from Sassuolo for €30m or so, a very important target for them that even ADL has been vocal about. Also this €75m talk makes sense since they usually don't spend big unless they aren't selling, Koulibaly's value is the highest it is right now and would be about half next year. They would then have to sell Fabian Ruiz or another young player for good money to balance books, so it has to be this window.

Strongly doubt we’ll get this done. Di Marzio is pretty reliable on transfers and if PSG are now in the mix, we took too long to conduct this highly important piece of business. So fucking stupid, just pride arguing over a few million when our defence is as bad as it is.

Fingers crossed it gets over the line. This deal needs to be wrapped up quickly or have a definitive conclusion either way, Wolves away we need our best 11 and not having him in the team would be a travesty.

I'm beginning to think its actually us fucking them about. On purpose.

Must have a proper CB target lined up elsewhere.
