It says Pep will convince him or he'll sign a new deal.
No one suggesting we'd try to buy him after a new deal was signed.

I saw that, I'm just saying I think we'd pull out if he signed a new deal. Hopefully Pep can get him on board.
I would still rather have Saúl. Rodrigo is very like Busquets, and I totally understand why he'd be so appealing to Pep, but Saúl is the spiritual successor to Fernandinho. The complete midfielder who's played as a 6, box to box, a number 10, even RB, LB and CB when needed and done well. He also has the same never say die attitude, the engine and pace, a smart head tactically and the habit of showing up with a special performance on the big occasion.
He's supposedly got issues with Simeone's defend defend defend outlook and would be available.

I think the point is that if he signed a new deal, he'd not be interested in moving anyway, so there'd be nothing to pull out of.

Has the right attributes on paper but football isnt played on paper - just take a look at jorginho.

Honestly, and this a bit left field, but I want brozovic. He is like milner but with skill. Never stops running, good passing range, and can play anywhere in midfield. I feel like he would be more of a spiritual successor to Fernandinho. I think Inter may be looking to build a team around him though.
Think that would kill any chances of us signing him tbh. €70m is very doable but if he signs a new contract it will be at the very least doubled.
Indeed but also predicated on whether the player has intentions to leave as it seems the player will clearly get better wages & higher buyout, regardless of the outcome

I've thought about that one too. An underrated player that would definitely be suited for our system. Got a shot on him as wellHonestly, and this a bit left field, but I want brozovic.

Players usually sign new contract and rise their buyout clause before City sign them.
It happened with Laporte & Fernando.

Where did this "spiritual successor" thing come from? I hate the sound of it.
