City want a £15m fee for Yaya, high for a 32yo. Inter are considering a loan with obligation to buy offer (Negredo style). (via @DiMarzio)
 
Since Internazionale cannot afford any fee at all for Toure (fact, they have already admitted this) and they would prefer not to pay City a single euro for Jovetic either (naturally they want him free on a season long loan with the dreaded option to buy in June 2016), I cannot see how we could let Yaya Toure go there unless we agreed a player exchange involving an Inter player that meets our needs. Unless that player is either Icardi or Kovacic I cannot see the point of City agreeing to any deal as proposed by the Italian club that leaves us without some fee that could be considered satisfactory.

Inter must understand that we are not some short of charity in existence merely to offload International class players at bargain basement or, as in this case, absolutely nothing at all. Our fixers have to make this abundantly clear.
 
Inter can afford it - they are being difficult because they plan an overhaul so to move permanent deals to next summer with some loans would let them spread out their spending. They offered over £20m for Dybala and didn't get him so should be able to buy one of Jovetic or Yaya outright. Loan with obligation to buy is not ideal but we have precedent for being allowed to use the future guaranteed money early when UEFA consented the Negredo money being used on Bony. £15m is a good fee if we actively want to sell him, despite how good Yaya still is. It'd be different if we didn't, but I think we do. How many outfield 32-year-olds have ever moved for £15m? Any at all? I bet you could count them on one hand if so.
 
Ibrahimovic's fee was £14m (when he joined PSG as 30 year old) so we could realistically ask for that, even if Inter want to go down the loan route.

Yaya is 4 years younger than Lampard and he is our 3rd best attacking player even though he is CM, so why shell we sell him ?


How many CM will get you 10 goals per season ?
