I just think Juve will offer him a new contract and he'll stay.

Interesting that City haven't yet denied this, they were really quick to deny Aubameyang when DiMarzio broke the story?

Probably soon though

Completed:
Ilkay Gundogan - £20m
Nolito - £13.8m
Oleksandr Zinchenko - £1.7m

£35.5m

Provisional:
John Stones - £40m - £50m (so, £45m)
Leroy Sané - £35m - £40m (so, £37.5m)
Leonardo Bonucci - £40m - £50m (so, £45m)

£127.5m

Total: £163m (a club record for a summer transfer window and £9m more than our total spend for the 2010/11 season under Roberto Mancini).

Just for comparison, the top 5 most expensive summer windows by club are:

1. Real Madrid, summer 2009: £195m. Biggest transfer: Cristiano Ronaldo, £85m
2. Manchester United, summer 2014: £146m. Biggest transfer: Angel di Maria, £59.7m
3. Real Madrid, summer 2013: £142m. Biggest transfer: Gareth Bale £85.3m
4. Manchester City, summer 2009: £140m. Biggest transfer: Carlos Tevez, £47m
5. Liverpool, summer 2014: £117m. Biggest transfer: Adam Lallana, £25m

We would jump into 2nd place this summer if we were to complete our projected transfers.

Bloody hell Liverpool heavily invested to finish mid table, they may as well have not bothered.

 

[GeorgeHeslop'sTackle.]

Looks good, yes he is 29 and world class.. But does seem a bit short term?

Maybe our owners, like last. year, still view the CL our main priority this time around.

Bonucci would be an ideal accusation from that standpoint

 

[Blue warrior]

Bonnucci must have given us the go ahead to bid? That's how it's done these days right?

Add in Rulli and Bruno Peres and we might get close to Real.

He is the best CB in world football.
But naah let's give Mangala and Denayer
chances over him.
Recently turned 29 and at his peak.
Hope we push for it if a deal can be done.
Stones-Bonucci combo could be class.
