City could raise serious money this summer.
Trafford — £45m
Reijnders — £60m
Savinho — £70m
Rodri — £70m
Aké — £ 15m
£260m already, and that’s before academy deals.
Plenty of room to back Maresca properly.
@2hotchillz@City_Xtra@SamLee Spending big on a 20-year-old with upside is fine.
Blindly paying whatever Chelsea demand because they set a clock isn’t.
There’s a difference.
@nacho_254@City_Xtra@David_Ornstein Wanting a player doesn’t mean writing a blank cheque just because they set a public deadline.
If the gap closes to something sensible, do the deal.
If not, walk. Simple as that.
@City_Xtra@MullockSMedia@hirstclass City are completely right to hold the line at £70m.
Barcelona lowballing Rodri twice is disrespectful. He’s one of the best midfielders in the world and a Champions League winner. If they want him, they can pay what he’s actually worth or move on.
‼️ Manchester City have told Barcelona they must come up with £70m to sign Rodri after rejecting a second bid of £51.3m + £5m add-ons.
Barcelona’s opening offer was just £38.5m.
City are not playing around.

🚨 #manCity still very keen on Enzo Fernández despite the £120m price tag.
They’ll push hard to bring the fee down, but the interest has been there all summer.
Chelsea’s public deadline doesn’t necessarily mean the private stance is as rigid.

Don’t know what’ll be Chelsea’s biggest heist:
£50M for Madueke.
£120M for Enzo.
Or a £20M profit on Neto. 😭
Chelsea might be the best sellers in football 😭
Chelsea say their deadline has been communicated to both #ManCity and Fernandez’s camp, and that their valuation has been confirmed to the player's agent since May.

🚨 EXCL: A Saudi club has made an official €60m offer for Tijjani Reijnders.
The Manchester City midfielder has also been linked with Galatasaray. Deal is close.

Madjo just became the youngest ever goalscorer in the UEFA Super Cup at 17 years and 212 days 🔥
Beats Patrick Kluivert’s 1996 record (19 years, 220 days).
Kid is already rewriting history.
