Looks like he'll be worming the bench after all. Pedro's record speaks for itself.

He'll rotate with Villa and Pedro. And Fabregas will rotate with Iniesta and Xavi, if they get him. It's no secret that Barcelona tired towards the end of last season because their squad being short.

Barca clinch £23m deal to sign United, City and Chelsea target Sanchez from Udinese

Barcelona have confirmed an agreement has been reached over the signing of Udinese forward Alexis Sanchez for £23million.

The Chile international will undergo a medical on Monday before putting pen to paper on a five-year contract.

Sanchez, 22, has been heavily linked with the European Cup winners for the majority of the summer, but there was also interest from the likes of Chelsea and Manchester rivals United and City.

Barca coach Pep Guardiola has made no secret of his admiration of the pacey winger and has now finally got his man after negotiations between the two clubs.

A Barcelona statement said: 'Udinese and FC Barcelona have reached a definitive agreement for the transfer of Alexis Sanchez.

'The medical, signing of his contract for the next five years and presentation will take place on Monday.'

Sanchez spent three seasons in Udinese, and scored 12 goals in 31 appearances in Serie A last term to help the club finish fourth and qualify for the Champions League.

He was also a member of the Chile squad which reached the quarter-finals of this summer's Copa America, where they were beaten by Venezuela

£23 + £10 = £33

Yeah, it's Barca and not City, so they just quote the transfer fee. If it was us, it would have been a £60+ million deal as they would have included any add-ons and salary in that amount but would be potrayed as being £60+ million up front from the Sheik's lunch money budget.
 
I'd have thought with such an exhausting transfer tussle it would be around 35-40 mil. 23? That's it? We've dolled that out how many times over the past few years, and will probably do it two more times in the next few weeks.
 
I find it funny Barca bullied them into selling for £23 million when they were saying the would not take a penny less than £40 millon from us.
 
People really need to stop reporting the fee as £23M, and realize that it is £23M plus up to £10M more in variables. Barcelona will probably pay the vast majority of that extra £10M. Still, I think it is a good deal for Barcelona considering that the fees reported about a month ago when he was reportedly on the verge for signing with them were around £25M plus £10M in variables as well as Jeffren or something like that. Was that Pozzo just trying to squeeze more money out of them? Either way, they have a good, young player who I think will fit in perfectly in their system. I imagine Bojan and possibly Jeffren will be leaving them though, but it is doubtful that deterred them from getting this deal done.

Sounds like you are trying to convince yourself to me. £23 million sounds about right when you take Silva, Mario and Yaya transfer fees into account. That Udinese guy was nothing but a lying shit anyway. This was always going to happen and would be the only income.

1) Barce tap player up and tell player to hold tight and downright refuse any offer
2) Player agrees with above as he is obsessed with the idea of playing for Barce. Let's be honest, who wouldn't be at the moment.
3) City, Chelsea, and whoever come in with favourable bid but player will not entertain any offer other than Barce's.
4) Barcelona come in with crappy offer below market value for the player.
5) When other teams realise that the player only has 1 intended destination they drop out and go elsewhere.
6) Udinese or team have no option but to sell him to Barcelona because they are a selling club and there is noone left in the running.

Unfortunately, I expect the Fabregas transfer is taking a similar route.

Let's just hope the Aguero deal doesn't follow a similar pattern.

Yup
Sanchez to Barca just proves it's the player who holds the ultimate key., not the fee/
 
The guy had his head turned - Barca used their name and reputation to snare him only after they thought they could be missing out on something if he came to us. That´s a huge compliment to us from the CL champs - fook him and move on

If you're not interested, why look at it? It seriously does my head in when posters make such irrational comments!

It's a message board, where people come to chat, this thread like all others should be allowed to die organically NOT because you're no longer interested in looking at it............
