So instead him being leaving on a free transfer end of June we gave him a new contract until next June and now it looks like nobody is going to take him as his injury record is awful and still not fit so best chance we have is him going out on loan with us paying some or all of his wages.
Whoever scouted him to be a great solution to play in our high line Pellegrini defence should be under serious scrutiny. Good on the ball? Absolutely not. Quick, reaction time? No. Intelligent, reading the play well? No.
But lets pay 42 m to Porto for him, why not.
If we add his wages to it since then it makes my blood boil and then season tickets prices going up earning the club about 1m more per year but total cost of Mangala could be above 60m at least for what return? 2-3 good games he had and thats it.
Season ticket price raise wont earn as much to City as Mangala gonna cost the club if we cant shift him soon instead of letting his contract down in June 2019 but we gave him a new one.
