Another 10m towards the net spend trophy

18m is a great result. In context rags are after a LB from Fayenoord who will cost them 13m.

Edit - 10m still a good result.

Maybe the only downside of being the best team in the world. Almost impossible for even a hugely talented youngster to break into the first team. Best of luck to him.

Romeo Lavia is close to joining Southampton on a permanent deal. City will have a buy-back as they hope that their top youngsters will one day come back to the club if they thrive elsewhere.

May be best for us if he doesnt hear from Angelino

Permanent transfer ....not disclosed the fee yet

What's going on. It's like a closing down sale. "Everything must go"

Manchester City, although that could rise to around £15 million if potential add-ons are met. Sam Lee

Genuinely the only player of the buyback squad that I actually think we'll buy back. Hopefully he's good enough!

We’ve made close to £40m on academy player sales this summer alone. The academy is our biggest asset now, a steady turnover of money through sales with the possibility of the sold players coming back to City after progressing with their new club. We’re a brilliantly run club.


I think Delap will be the next one to go, probably next summer after a loan spell somewhere. He could easily fetch us £30m if he bangs in the goals while on loan.

I think so too. I just hope we have kept him long enough to meet the club trained criteria. Unlike Bazunu, who now never will.

Great team for him to develop with, they aren’t scared of youth or inexperience and try to play flowing football.

Joe shields is there now so a link.
