If we want him to come back to city, that means that he is playing like one of the top 10 forwards in the world. Would you say 25 million is too high for someone like that?

Yeah, it only makes sense like this. If we buy him back, it would be with a good reason, like he's developed into a world class striker. Well, effectively 25m for a world class striker is quite a price. Not to mention that what if after that, someone buys him for 60-70m, see Morata. :)Yeah, I like that one.
Pretty funny that people are expecting a cheap buy-back clause. To have agreed one with another Premier League club is pretty good work, let alone doing so for what is effectively £25,000,000.
Though I have to say I'm not entirely happy that he's gone to Leicester. Their direct 4-4-2 is not necessarily what he needs in my opinion, but hey, hopefully he'd be given the game time.

I would rather see Txiki not get mugged off for a buy-back clause after seeing what other big clubs have done with their young players with the same amount of hype as Nacho.

Would be surprised if its that low.Martin Blackburn has already stated it's a £35m buy back
Maybe it's variable depending on when we do it.Would be surprised if its that low.

I am just having a hard time seeing how Txiki is getting mugged here? We are getting paid 25 million quid so that someone else can develop a player that has the potential to be amazing. If it works out, then we get a STEAL in the modern marketplace for a top 10 striker. If it doesn't, we made pretty decent money on a player that probably never would have made it here long-term. It's hard enough to get a buy-back clause from other premiere league teams, but to me, this seems like GREAT business.I would rather see Txiki not get mugged off for a buy-back clause after seeing what other big clubs have done with their young players with the same amount of hype as Nacho.

I hope we end up following up on the buyback in a couple of years. How does it work if he doesn't want to come back though?
