That would be pretty awesome if Man City went and spent 300 mil in a window where most teams are struggling.

If an upgrade at DM, isn’t made I’d like to see what we got in Garner.

according to Bouhafsi, we're interested in Camavinga and meet with his entourage next week.

Can anyone explain how negotiations can take so long? Is it being done by regular mail?

United submit an offer. Dortmund: We'll get back to you in a couple of days.

Dortmund: Here's our counter offer. United: Leave it with us. We'll get back to you.
This really is gonna come down to the final hours it seems to who is first

Spurs supposedly finalizing with Nuno this week

United and dortmund agreed on price and just the structure of payments to work out

man, don't even joke about this. Not too bothered about Kane, but Grealish going to City would be really painful.

by the way, Bild now say Sancho is done for €85m + €10m in add-ons. Hope that's true.

Getting Grealish and not Kane would be peak Pep. Not that Grealish wouldn't do amazing in that team, and I get that Pep wants to play 10 MFs and a GK if possible, but at some point you do need an actual striker.

Southgate will whisper into Ole's ear and he'll never be played....

Agent Southgate simply wanted to make sure that he's all fit and rested for the upcoming season. Good man, Gareth - all is forgiven!

Ornstein has now confirmed the Sancho deal. It's finally happening.

Pep is the one that is pushing for Kane

For all citys spending, they haven't ever spent a record on one player, and also kane effectively has minimal resale value.

The stuff that's come out is the city board want haaland, but it makes sense for pep to want kane, hes a better distributer, and more importantly proven in england, pep doesnt really care if he only has 4 or 5 years left, he probly won't be there past that

Graelish to city just makes sense if it's this year, I cant see united buying him after getting sancho, butndoes graelish wantbto wait another year?

I could see Grealish staying another year at Villa, there are rumors they are willing to increase his wages.

He's a childhood Villa supporter so I'm sure part of him still dreams about doing more with that team.

Plus there is a World Cup next year, and I think there is a fair question about where he has a better shot of solidifying his spot as a starter on that team. Could get lost in the shuffle at Man City depending on what Pep has planned.

It will probably only cost them Declan Rice!

I just love how Levy talks about "attacking and entertaining football" while confirming the hiring of Nuno Espirito Santo of all people. Outstanding lol

I’m pretty sure his whole “DNA” line is more aptly summed up as almost winning and then not quite getting there.

But this whole debacle is really the icing on the cake. You sack Jose five days ahead of the League Cup final and it takes three months to appoint a new coach, only for that person to be Nuno? What a circus.
