[Pep Signal @ThePepSignal]

I can’t see Manchester City paying over £120m for Enzo Fernández.
Would be pretty embarrassing if Chelsea let him go for less after setting their own £120m deadline, which has long since passed.
The Pep Signal is saying no. 👀🩵

🚨 "I am going to say here tonight that i EXPECT Manchester City to make a formal bid for Enzo Fernandez, maybe even before this weekend" (@alex_crook @talkSPORT)

[Pep Signal @ThePepSignal]

@City_Xtra @JacobsBen @alex_crook This makes so much sense. Can send Grealish the other way.

[Pep Signal @ThePepSignal]

@amb_mcfc_ @KippaxWill @RealTolmie Would love it to be true but don’t see it.

[Pep Signal @ThePepSignal]

@RealTolmie If I was a Chelsea fan I’d be furious. Setting a 120 million deadline just to sell him for near that 2 weeks later. 😂

[Pep Signal @ThePepSignal]

@RealTolmie Agree that would be the dream but do you think it’s actually possible this late in the window? Think Grealish will go but would be amazed if we can offload Ait Nouri and Lewis this window.

[Pep Signal @ThePepSignal]

@RealTolmie Wonder why the main stream journalist haven’t reported this. What a fantastic deal for City!

[Pep Signal @ThePepSignal]

@RealTolmie Wow! The deal is even better than is being reported. Do you think there will be any more outgoings and, if so, who do you think they’ll be?

[Pep Signal @ThePepSignal]

@FabrizioRomano Crazy negotiation tactic to get Mbaye! 😂

[Pep Signal @ThePepSignal]

@bluemoongramps @chesterbells1 @RealTolmie The game that sticks in my mind was Stamford Bridge in the treble season. We were awful in the first half; he came on at half-time and completely changed the game. He had that impact a lot for a while, until teams, unfortunately, started to figure him out.

[Pep Signal @ThePepSignal]

@bluemoongramps @RealTolmie Fair enough! 😂

[Pep Signal @ThePepSignal]

@MCFC_Rags I don’t trust that source at all. You are absolutely right, if it goes ahead at the fee being mentioned, a serious question would have to be asked as to why we didn’t activate the verbal release clause.

[Pep Signal @ThePepSignal]

@chesterbells1 @RealTolmie @bluemoongramps Yep, it’s become a really tough watch now, both on the pitch and with the reaction of the fans off it. Hope he gets his move, as there’s definitely a top player in there. Will never forget the impact he had when he first broke through!

[Pep Signal @ThePepSignal]

@bluemoongramps @RealTolmie Tolmie has said throughout the window he is going to go, so we will see who is right. I hope he goes and thrives somewhere as seems like a lovely bloke!

[Pep Signal @ThePepSignal]

Same source that said we were going to bid for Enzo weekend before last! 💀

City don’t get dictated to. Said two weeks ago City will only do a deal if the price is right for them, not for Chelsea. 🩵

[Pys @CFCPys]

🚨🚨 BREAKING: Manchester City are preparing a huge bid of between £130-140m for Enzo Fernandez. The bid will arrive today or tomorrow. (@gastonedul)

[Pep Signal @ThePepSignal]

@RealTolmie @bluemoongramps Sam Lee said yesterday decision has been made to keep him?

[Pep Signal @ThePepSignal]

@RealTolmie @kennygraeme63 No chance! 😂

[Pep Signal @ThePepSignal]

@MCFC_Rags @spbajko I do like a smaller squad, as it tends to keep players happier. But no doubt we need bodies through the door before the window shuts, as otherwise we are too thin. The current ownership have proven they know what needs to be done to win, so it is important we stay behind them. 🩵

[Pep Signal @ThePepSignal]

@spbajko Thanks for replying. Of course I read your piece. I must still be missing something, as Maresca’s comments did not give me that impression. I believe we’d be lucky to get more than 2 in now based on this and other things. Hope I’m wrong. Fully support the club as always though.🩵

[Pep Signal @ThePepSignal]

Hmm, the comment about squad size is very alarming. Would be amazed if we get 3 or more in before the window shuts now, and wouldn’t be surprised if it’s less than that — including the further outgoings. 😬

Seems like a lot of “ITKs” have been waffling. Who’d have guessed?! 😂

[City Xtra @City_Xtra]

BREAKING: Kaden Braithwaite, Floyd Samba, and Ryan McAidoo have been promoted to #ManCity's first-team squad, confirms Enzo Maresca.

Maresca: “We have three academy players that are going to stay with us because they impressed me in pre-season; Kaden, Samba, and Ryan McAidoo - they are going to stay. Then we need around 20 players plus these three young, full of energy. We are happy!” [via @HaytersTV]
