New striker?

I think we are in for Mbappe. Been saying it for a wile. Reason being he is the stand out talent in his age bracket - there just isnt anyone close in their early 20's. We haven't signed anyone else so i guess we are waiting to see what happens with him.

People bang on about the ownership of PSG being an issue but his contract is up in 2022 - so he walks at that point. He is going to be a £100+ transfer next summer or free the year after. PSG will take the money next year. They likely win the league anyway.
He has made it quite clear he doesn't want to come to City, its a non starter. He is going to Madrid, they will shift the likes of Odegaard, Ceballos and other shite and put the cash together.
 
I would be very surprised if Mbappe doesn’t move to Madrid or simply stay and extend on crazy terms in Paris. The money he must be making in Paris must be insane plus the other side hustles

He will go to Madrid if they want and can afford him. He hasn't made it clear he doesn't want City. When he was 18 he said no to Manchester. Since then nothing so there is nothing to say he would think different now to when he was 18.

Agree. He is french so no real attraction to any of the big Spanish or German clubs. Like all these situations it will be a combination of money and beyond that the quality of the club/team and lifestyle on offer. There will be 4 or 5 clubs max with a chance of getting him and we are on that list. I give us at least a 20% chance.

Well they do want him and as always, they will find the money to buy him. It is a complete fantasy that we will sign him.

Since then there has never been anything to suggest he is interested either. No journalist or anything has linked him to us for years yet we are seeing Haaland and so forth recently.
 
the years of the spanish ' giants' being first in the queue for any one they fancy with money no object are, by any measure, receding fast if not already over. Spain still is very attractive, but money is more so...
Aguero situation has got to the point where i would saddened but not shocked if we dont see him again.....
Purely a personal view without the slightest evidence to back it. No-one would be happier than me to see him fit and firing again, what he has cannot be taught .

I expect both of the two biggest young strikers in world football will be moving this summer.

Realistically there are only a small number of clubs (7-8) who will have a chance at either of them, and we are one of them.

Until they sign for someone (or it is clear they will not sign for us) we will not spend on an Aguero replacement.

But we will sign a forward this summer.

Mbappé and Haaland?
 
Yes but Chelsea will also be in the hunt and he evidently prefers London.
I would imagine he prefers Champions League football too though...

He'd join Leeds before Chelsea next season, Chelsea have almost no chance of getting Champions League football this season.
