Kylian Mbappe

If Coutinho moves for 120 mil euros, then this deal is going to be as ridiculously expensive as rumours suggest.

The Coutinho deal is a little like the Torres / Andy Carrol scenario a bit back isn't it? The money for Neymar makes it easy for them to offer a take it or leave it fee..

This, again, started with the rags & Pogba.

So ridiculously overvalued it sets the standard for everything else.

I think if Mbappe goes this summer, which looks probable, the fee will be £130m +

Given how much Pep reportedly rates him I can see Him being prepared to pay that figure. With our dealings this summer with Silva & Mendy we have to have a chance.

I don't think Monaco will sell to PSG so it's down to whether he feels he will get game time & develop more at City than Real. I'm biased but I'd choose City.

Really falls down to if Madrid want him this summer. I think he's our if not.

I don't see it like that myself. He's young, inexperienced, and in all probability at his age, pretty scared about the journey ahead. He's under a huge amount of pressure and the idea of upping sticks and moving to a foreign country at that age is pretty daunting on its own.

For these reasons alone, I think PSG are in the box seat. I reckon the sensible money is either on him staying put, or going to PSG. Us and Real are outsiders I think, and maybe just maybe we might be more attractive to him than Madrid because of our recent signings, and because of Pep. And also, there's much *less* pressure joining us rather than Madrid. There's no bigger spotlight on you than moving to Madrid and I am not sure that's what an 18 year old would want.

Going against us, is that we are a sensible, well run business which is very unlikely to offer stupid money... unlike some of our rivals.

I agree with all you say But he has two mates here to help him settle
