I’m so convinced they’re feeding this quote to @etihadintel, but I just can’t prove it.

[City Xtra @City_Xtra]

Proactive and forceful denials from #ManCity around reported interest in Chelsea’s Enzo Fernandez at the beginning of the summer have now given way to silence. Fernandez wants to reunite with Enzo Maresca and those close to him believe the feeling is mutual.

[Demiaᝰ. @Demiasen]

Chelsea giving Man City a Friday deadline for Enzo Fernández is funny.

Since when do Chelsea decide when Manchester City have to spend £120m? 😂

If City want him, make the bid on OUR terms.

If £120m is the only option, walk away.

No panic. No desperation.

.@SamLee: “An overall price of £120M [for Enzo Fernandez] feels very steep, and it’s much easier to imagine them [Manchester City] trying to bring the price down. However, they are very keen to sign him and have been all summer.

“City are determined to back Enzo Maresca this summer, and that includes the desire to sign Fernandez. City will be trying to find out whether Chelsea’s stance is not quite as firm in private as it is in public, even if their decision to set a public price and deadline implies otherwise…” [via @TheAthleticFC]

£51.3M + £5M in add-ons for Rodri? 😭 Come on, Barcelona, have some respect.

We’re talking about the 2024 Ballon d’Or winner, a Premier League champion, Champions League winner, European Championship winner and one of the most influential defensive midfielders of his generation.

City paid around £62.8M for Rodri in 2019. Six years later, after he’s become arguably the best No.6 in world football history, Barcelona are coming in with an offer that doesn’t even match what we originally paid? 🤦‍♂️

Rodri isn’t some player City are desperate to get rid of. He’s under contract, he’s central to the team, and replacing his quality would cost a fortune.

If Barcelona genuinely want him, £70M should be the starting point for the conversation, not something they complain about.

You want a world-class midfielder? Pay the world-class price.

No cheap deals. No desperation. No discount. 💙

#ManCity have told Barcelona they must come up with £70M to sign Rodri after rejecting an unacceptable second bid of £51.3M plus £5M in add-ons. Barcelona’s opening bid was £38.5M.

As a City fan, The biggest mistake Manchester City could make is trying to recreate the past.

The old City worked because the players, system, mentality and timing all came together perfectly.

We can’t simply replace one legend with another signing and expect the same machine.

The next City needs a new identity.

New leaders.
New combinations.
New standards.
Maybe even a slightly different style.

The objective isn’t to recreate 2018–2023.

It’s to create the next version of greatness.

[Demiaᝰ. @Demiasen]

@heis_kevn @FabrizioRomano We the fans don’t want him, but the coach and club wants him. 😭

[Demiaᝰ. @Demiasen]

If Savinho genuinely wants to leave Manchester City, then so be it.

City should never beg a player to stay.

But I also don't want the club making a cheap deal just to get rid of an unhappy player.

You want out? Fine.

Pay the price.

Imagine being so obsessed with Man City that you literally hired Guardiola’s assistant, Signed Gabriel Jesus & Zinchenko, brought in City staff and copied our tactical blueprint.

you’re annoyed we can afford players you want. This financial analysis clearly isn’t working. 😂

[Demiaᝰ. @Demiasen]

This action says it all. If Savinho is leaving, and honestly, I think Manchester City need to take the emotion out of it.

I’m not going to lose sleep over it.
If he doesn't want to stay, don't force it.

Take the money.

Reinvest it.

And make sure the replacement actually improves the squad.

This rebuild needs decisions, not sentiment.

#mcfc #mancity

[Demiaᝰ. @Demiasen]

Manchester City shouldn't automatically keep a player just because he's talented.

The question should be:

Does he fit the manager?
Does he fit the system?
Does he fit the mentality?
Does he want to be here?

Talent alone isn't enough anymore. #mcfc #mancity

[City Xtra @City_Xtra]

Tottenham are confident of closing a deal for Savinho in the coming days with the direction being to reach a fee in the region of £70M.

[City Xtra @City_Xtra]

Savinho has already made it clear to Enzo Maresca that he does not want to continue at #ManCity despite participating in pre-season. The forward has already spoken more than once with Tottenham’s Roberto De Zerbi to find out about his plans for him.

🚨 BREAKING: Galatasaray have submitted an official €45 million offer to Arsenal for Gabriel Martinelli, with the Turkish giants making the Brazilian winger their top transfer priority. The bid is now on Arsenal’s table as Galatasaray push to bring the 25-year-old to Istanbul.

Martinelli remains a player of interest for Arsenal, but Galatasaray’s strong interest could put pressure on the Gunners to make a decision regarding his future. The Turkish champions are determined to strengthen their attacking options and see Martinelli as a major target for their squad.

Arsenal will now have to consider the €45m proposal, although reports indicate that the club’s willingness to sell could depend on whether they secure another left-sided attacker first. For now, no agreement has been reached, and Martinelli’s future remains a major talking point in the transfer window.

The next steps will depend on Arsenal’s response and whether Galatasaray are prepared to improve their proposal if the initial offer is rejected.
