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

[Gumzy97]

Wage thing might be true. Only saying that as he rejected a 10 mil contract from Dortmund

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

For a centre back yes, never seen him out paced in the Bundesliga

Lucky he played with Haaland.

:-)

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

Or Dortmund brought in two new centre backs as he was stalling on a contract offer and they were looking to get a fee for him as he was about to become a free agent at the end of the season? I'd be surprised if Sule is better.

Calling @Cellarite How fast can you get to Barton Aerodrome?

De Bruyne was apparently a boyhood cultist hasn't done too badly at City

Not saying he won’t be a good player for us, just that he’s a ****

 

[1Basti]

we pay £15m for a player who might be playing in case 2 or 3 other guys are injured..seems Mbete or the other CBs on loan/EDS/CFG aren`t rated at all..

But he’s (nearly) our ****

I’ll go straight from the match tomorrow night.

Someone must be leaving? We can't keep 5 CBs happy. Ake or Laporte might be on their way out.

This guy seems to be very quick, strong and decent with his feet. Alongside Dias/Stones he'll be an asset.
