yup. At first I thought it was a play by the agent to speed up the City transfer and/or get more money, but there seems to be more to it. The bookies have turned over the last 48 hours and Mourinho gave his typical "I don't speak about other team's players, but he's a phenomenal player" speech yesterday. So they are definitely trying to get him. I think it's a no-brainer too, around 30m is a joke in today's market for a gamebreaker like him. I think Sane and Sterling have played so well that Sanchez is no longer a priority for City, making United a real possibility. Not getting my hopes up and still think he'll eventually sign for City, but yeah, good to see that they are trying to steal him.
