Assuming he starts under Pep. What if it takes him a year to adapt? Then the pressure of win now forces Pep to go another way. Suddenly he is a backup on a top team as opposed to a starter on a mid table team. Starters on mid table team are more valuable than backups at top teams. Ask Isco.
Going to a big club is the wrong decision for 90% of players. I can't fault any player who balks at a young age. At 23-24-25, sure. By then you know if you are a bonafied star just waiting to move to your level. At 19-21 you are mostly potential. Still can go sideways.
There are countless stars wgonnow play at midtable clubs coz they went to a big club too early. Stoke has a few of them.
Talent to some extent is about perception. If you are at a midtable club blowing up you are still considered. If you bombed out of a top club already, moat of the other top clubs move on.
This is genuinely, one of the dumbest things I've seen written on here.

Guardiola rotates every single game. He sees players in training. If any player has a dip in form, they don't get permanently benched, they just get managed back into form.
If it takes him a year to adapt, then it takes him a year to adapt. He's not signing a 1 year contract, and Pep will be able to see whats going on and guide him in the right direction. Kroos took a year to adapt at Real Madrid. His career is still going somehow.

Talent isn't about perception, it's about how fucking good at football you are. And going to a team with better players, the best coach in the world with a track record of developing young players, and playing in a level of competition higher than the one you're in now is how you improve.
And what does he need to be considered about? Are you saying he won't get a big move to a big club if he's already at a big club? No shit! Are you saying he won't get picked up by another big club if he's doing poorly at another big club? Bullshit. Look at Morata or Coman.

Yes, that's why Robben and Kevin De Bruyne's careers died the day they failed at Real/Chelsea.

WHY WOULD HE GIVE A SHIT?
What does his value mean to him? Nothing. Transfer price literally means nothing to a player except giving them an ego boost. In fact, a low transfer value is better for any player - it gives you flexibility in choosing a different club if you leave.
90% of world class players have made the jump up to top CL teams by the time they are 22, not 23-24-25 like you said. The only ones who don't move are the ones who came through an academy at one of those teams.
Oh, and by the way - he'd be moving to Bayern Munich at 21 next season anyway! So he'll still be moving young.
Honestly, that was one of the worst comments I've seen on here for a while. Stop trying to come up with idiotic, convoluted reasons for Sané not to come here.
