True. But we’re risking other clubs getting involved.

I understand the whole tedious negotiating - go in low first and meet in the middle - but that just seems…very low to me.
Are we?

Seems pretty clear he wants us, we want him and now the game begins..
 
I think we are testing the water in regards to the gentleman’s agreement Lyon made with Cherki.

We have purposely gone in below the amount to see what they responded with.
 
19m is not a bad offer considering.

1. Player only has 1 year left
2. Player only wants city
3. Lyon need the money

Why should we overpay. Hugo has set the stall out with tijanni.

City will look for value. We ain’t a charity case.

He is a good player with a high ceiling but unproven ultimately.

Gets done at £35m would be my guess.
 
I don't believe that supposed offer of 23m euros is true. For a start we nearly always do deals with add-ons.

Something like 23m upfront rising to 30m with add-ons I could believe for an opening offer but no add-ons mentioned has the sceptical side of me calling bullshit.

How he got that Reijnders deal over line I don’t know, Milan are only receiving a base fee of 41 million pounds. Reijnders former club have a 10% sell on clause. Milan fans online are angry
 
Viana is a wheeler dealer, the complete opposite of Txiki.

Was pissing myself at the excerpt of those WhatsApp messages. What a man.

No wonder we fucked Wirtz off, we’re getting 3 top players for the same price all on less wages.
 
I actually can see Viana getting it done for 27 million plus add ons to 40 mil. But base fee 27 million. Probably around that number
 
The is Viana's first proper window so he is going to want to try and impress.

Lyon hold no cards here. They were preliminary relegated back in November and apparently need cash on this season's books.

He only has 1 year left. Their fault for letting him get into that scenario.

I reckon this gets sealed at €30m/ £25m.

Same here...especially the missed call time stamp at 22:43

I reckon Fernando Couto had a few choice words with Viana moving the goal posts!

If there is some truth to this low-ball offer, part of me is concerned we begin to get a Levy-type reputation of being a pain to deal with.

I'm all for one in getting the best value deal, although perhaps not at the expense of reputation.

I do remember one tender process where our company submitted a piss-take of a bid only to annoy the procurement lead who got all emotional & refused to interact any further. Even when we eventually crawled back & said we would match the competitor bid.
