Manuel Akanji | City close to £15m agreement, 5 year contract

[oddfellows]

Weakens them for Chumps league.

Competition for places after shipping too many goals and no doubt our No 9 will know a bit about him

No midget CB's for City.

It does make sense with the Mbete to Huddersfield loan links (although I did want Mbete to be given a chance).

I wouldn't go as far with that. He isn't their first choice defender

It was interesting watching the Txiki/Omar chat in the Champions Again episode recently where they say some opportunities are too good to turn down somethings - hence why we got Alvarez in January.

Maybe this is another one of those opportunities? A proven centre-back with Champions League and international experience playing in one of Europe's top leagues at one of the top clubs on the cheap because his deal runs out next Summer.

hes that kind of cb that always has an error on him, and is a bit soft - thats why dortmund brought two new center backs. as a 5th option hes ok i guess

 

[mexico1970]

Never heard of him, hoping he does well here though.

Akanji had been mentioned as a prime transfer target for Inter this summer, should they sell Milan Skriniar to Paris Saint-Germain, with Milan also showing an interest.
