KaKa Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 https://mobile.twitter.com/ToonTransfer/status/868930420741742592 I initially thought this link was ridiculous as he would cost way too much, but it turns out Valencia had a clause to sign him for 17 million euros at the end of his loan, which they can't now afford, so it seems he is available for a fee that isn't over the top. If that article above is true then the 15 million euros bid makes some sense, as we like to try and pay a bit less by paying everything upfront.

afar Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 The big concern may not be the transfer fee but the wages he'll want, I'm sure we won't be able to match what Man City are paying him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seymour Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 The big concern may not be the transfer fee but the wages he'll want, I'm sure we won't be able to match what Man City are paying him. This website states his Wages is 100K a week http://sillyseason.com/salary/manchester-city-players-salaries-69071/ According to the Mirror, whilst playing for Valencia on loan, his wages were split and paid by City and Valencia https://www.google.co.uk/amp/www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/manchester-city-share-mangalas-wages-8732550.amp Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest chopey Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Carvalho is one i could actually see tbh, he's another one who was hyped as a youth and while talented he's stagnated to the point the CL clubs are no longer interested. The exact type of profile we should be looking to pursue. He's been linked with big clubs for 3 seasons now and never moved, £38 million seems far to much Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 The amount of names we've been linked with already is crazy. Some good quality as well. Desperate to see the next one through the door, hope it's something special. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Geordie Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Would take Mangala - experienced and at a good age. The poleish lad from Hull would be a good signing too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willow Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Frank Acheampong looks like a cracking winger. Seems tidy, very direct, great pace/acceleration, good cross on him and even helps out defensively too. Think he'd be a very good addition, seeing we've been linked recently.

The exact type of profile we should be looking to pursue. He's been linked with big clubs for 3 seasons now and never moved, £38 million seems far to much He won't cost anyway near that much, the fact he's been linked with big clubs for years and shows no signs of actually going means his stock is dropping. If he is sold I'll be shocked if he goes for more than 20. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
