No, no it isn't. As shown by the fact he's our 4th midfield choice this summer. Also the first transfer target this summer that has gone on strike. Doku, Gvardiol and Kovacic didn't
What has 4th choice go to do with the pattern of the transfer
Kovacic wasn't wanted by Chelsea, into his final year of contract. Easy signing to do.
Gvardiol, dragged out over several weeks and because its pre-season the lad is going to get himself sharp anyway. Leipzig working on replacements which is dragging out the deal. Deal gets done.
Doku, no real competition from the lad, signing him for a club with no money and in a weak league. Pretty straight forward.
Nunes transfer so far;
Rumors of Nunes being a target
Wolves say hes not for sale
The usual suspects in the media say Mendes is working on it
City aren't briefing anything otherwise
Wolves manager comes out and speaks openly about him going to City.
Still no brief from City
Wolves start to be linked with players e.g. Doyle
Second bid rumoured and some even saying its happened.
