Ruben Dias - Benfica confirm sale to City

[Kokonut1307]

On what planet is Otamendi worth €20m?

Hopefully this one

 

[Neville Kneville]

Thing is Braff aint even training with the first team according to the MUEN - said it in a piece they did pre Bounrmouth game when talking about players from the reserves that could start
Lots of people rave about him (Ive no idea if he is good enough tbh) - but the others like delap and doyle are clearly a step ahead of him if its true.

Wonder what Peps hesitancy is with Braff if he aint training with the first team considering the need for wide players

It was said on here that he's injured.

He was training with the first team not long ago.

 

[TonyM]

looks faster than our current CBs except for Ake probably.

Reminds me of Kompany. Dare I say?

 

[damrider]

For those disparaging Liga NOS, remember that the rags' best player just came from there

 

[colesy]

Reminds me of Alan Kernaghan.

 

[Sky Blue]

Reminds me of Alan Kernaghan.

I'll look forward to a 40yd chip against Leicester then.

And PF and TD

Yeah but foden plays a more advanced role, Doyle plays in the central midfield position but foden has an eye for goals and is always hovering behind the attack line.

If he does start for Benfica tonight, the game is been televised on the Free Sports channel for us all to analyse.

Of course the Moreirense opposition will be slightly less quality to scrutinise than Bayern Munich.

Mind you we all will be putting on the Bluemoon curse by looking out for his performance tonight, only for City to be linked with a different central defender tomorrow :-)

So this an accounting trick ? We get 20 million for Ottamendi who we value at about 8 according to some reports and other clubs want on a free and Benfica get 70 for Dias who we value at 50

Right ?

What are the FFP implications ?

I’ve seen loads of rumours about cbs this transfer window but not Ben white? Why aren’t we going in for him, watching him against Utd he looks really solid and comfortable on the ball aswell
