We paid more than 10mil when we signed him from Fulham....so taking a loss!...Hopefully it will make the signing of Mahrez easier!

Manchester City have completed the signing of the Fulham teenager Patrick Roberts in a further move to boost their homegrown ranks.

Roberts, who plays as a forward or winger, has moved for an undisclosed fee but the figure is understood to be £11m, with £5m up front for the 18-year-old with a further £6m in add-ons.
Nope. £6M.
 
The telegraph also confirmed the 11mil deal in report on 4th June mate....

Roberts, the £11m signing from Fulham, is expected to join Leicester when the protracted deal for Mahrez is finally thrashed out between the two clubs.
Unless you know the conditions for the add ons, which you don't, it's impossible to say either way. Regardless, we got 10m for a guy who has potential, but not with us, and who wasn't even starting every game for Celtic last season when healthy.

Mate, if you really want to be picky, multiple sources confirmed a 11mil(total) deal was agreed, so we were legally bound to pay that sum if all targets were met, so unless you know as "fact" all targets were missed its just as likely to be 11mil as not and if it is the 11mil total that we agreed, then the reported 10mil sale would be a loss...thats all I'm saying!

Exactly what I said mate. Impossible to know for certain if its 5, 11, or somewhere in between.

we obviously haven't paid any of those addons
 
So at least 33m in sales so far to offset outlay againt Mahrez and Jorghino if Roberts and Zinchenko are sold for the sums stated.

  1. Zinchenko 12m/16m
  2. Roberts 10m
  3. Maffeo 9m
  4. Angelino 5m
  5. Kayode 2.5m
  • 38.5m/42.5m
+ Davenport "undisclosed", apparently a six-figure fee
