Interesting, bit suprising to see Braaf on that list but it's fair suppose. Add to this the fact that well likely be saving around half a million a week on wages with aguero and Fernandinho likely both off, then all of a sudden a 5+ year contract with a big fee doesn't sound impossible. The thing to take away from this is that it isn't something all our competition can do. Sure, Liverpool can get odd money for Brewster, who then does bugger all, but what about next season? Every year we have a minimum 3-4 candidates verging on first team or a £5-15m transfer each.
We'll need to replace both,maybe an argument that DM is more pressing to be honest as we've shows we can play a false nine very well. Although our inability to convert chances is a concern on occasion and a true finisher would fill their boots here.
Could be Luiz comes back and then we inform Dortmund we'll go to £80m or wait until next summer to review. Haaland's wages will be a factor too, if he's expecting £350+ per week then he'd have to looked elsewhere.
But if he accept less but with bigger bonuses, plus arguably the best career chances to win things and actually be a better player, then city have to be his preferred choice.
