Kane will be waiting to go to Utd on a free next summer. Either that, or he sees an even more lucrative opportunity to take the Saudi coin.

 

He could go to Newcastle, earn a fat wedge, and beat Shearer's record.

20% of 50m is 10m. If we bid 50m, Southampton get what city can pay next summer. Or now. 

He's saying it's 20% of any profit (I have no idea if that's true though) made so if we buy at £50m, they have made a £38m profit, 20% of that is £7.6m going to Man City.

Why would Bayern be making all these bids if they didn't think Kane was interested? Was Kane using Bayern's interest to get himself a bigger contract at Spurs? If he turns down this move, he really would have shown himself as someone with zero ambition. He isn't getting any younger, wasting yet another season without winning anything is pathetic.

Thought that was going to be a picture of our silver transfer Merc.

Maybe he took Michael Owen’s advice.

Wouldn't surprise me, both are as thick as each other!

If Caicedo would rather join that shower and play for that manager over Klopp then fuck him - he is obviously a bit of a prick.

The Oilers have reportedly put in a bid of over 80m for Paqueta....

The other thing people are forgetting is City's 20% sell on clause. Which is 20% of the profit made on Lavia. So they bought him for like 10m. If we buy him for 50m, City get 8m, so Southampton are only getting 42m. Which would only be a 2m profit on what they could get from City next year. The 50m request is basically to barely more than cover that potential fee due to sell on clause. It literally makes zero sense for them to even sell for like 45m, because they would actually receive less than 40.

I think its pretty wild to assume that City would use their buy-back, they let him go just last summer and brought in Kalvin Phillips. Even if saints won the championship and he was the best player in the league then it would still be unlikely that they would go shopping in the championship, their fans wouldn't be having it. Top in the fact they already have Rodri, Phillips and Kovacic, I can't see it happening.

Fucking hell Paqueta wasn’t good enough to warrant a 100% transfer fee increase. He was barely good enough to get the money they paid back.

Us not being in for Paqueta last summer made zero sense.

What did they pay? £50m? Looks like a £50m player to me.

Why do you think city would want him? If they wanted him, would they let him join us? They have a 20% sell on clause. Effectively if they bid 40m today, it's the same as us paying 50m. City don't give 2 fucks about Lavia and are laughing their nuts off that they're about to get another 10m

 

 

20% of 50m is 10m. If we bid 50m, Southampton get what city can pay next summer. Or now. 

 

He's a Southampton player I don't think City can stop them selling to us.

I don't necessarily think City will want him next year but I think Southampton think there's a good chance they might.  If he's good enough for us to pay £40m plus then you have to think there's a player there.  City could even buy him (once the clause kicks in) and loan him out, possibly back to Southampton.

He almost went to Arsenal, he wants Chelsea and Real Madrid is his dream move…
