Pisses me off, that yet again City just pick up the best young(ish) talent in the world, all the time. Gvaridol by the looks of it, will be amongst the best in Europe. For many years.
Yeah, it helps us indirectly, than a player like Laporte may be surplus to requirements. But will he choose us? If he wants to stay in the PL, I can see we may be his best option. But if Bayern, PSG, Napoli, Real come-a-calling, hard to see him preferring us over them. Especially if Napoli unload Kim. They’ll have the funds to replace him, and extra money to maybe beef up the salary of some of their coveted players.
Outside of Laporte… who else is there, that is a sure thing, and we would be open to spending 40-50m on?
Also… why aren’t we pursuing the like of Skriniar? He’s a free agent. Not resigning with Inter.
Anyways, I hope we aren’t putting all our eggs into this basket.
