    Are you kidding me? SANCHO is a balon d'or contender in coming years.

    Thanks I do appreciate the info. I’m not generally interested in any of it, but I do think it’s fair to say Real Madrid is a huge brand and it would benefit Mbappe to be here as I’d say right now it’s bigger than PSG.

    I think Sancho is too English for some.

    Didn't we get zero dollars and only half wages when he was a year younger? They must have meant we're hoping to find someone to take his ~30ME/yr salary of our hands.

    Haaland will probably be getting on stage, Sancho will be lucky to have a seat.

    The question is not whether Sancho is a good player

    But is he good enough to justify that massive fee?

    Don't think so

    Did any of LV, Asensio, VJ, Mariano, Isco, or Rodrygo contribute over 20+ goals/assists a season?

    Just fact checked myself as I was typing this: out of 30 appearances this year in all comps, we're at 11 goals and 16 assists. Granted some BvB games become high scoring and wild affairs, but ********. I would instantly take back all the shit I've talked about Isco if he had a 10G/10A season (2016/17 aside maybe?).

    Sancho is currently earning 10 to 12 mil. Euro at Dortmund, plus his transfer fee? Doesn't sound very likely to be honest.

    I'd love to have him though. The original report says that we made an offer when Dortmund signed him, and our paths crossed once more when Sancho faced our youth team with Dortmund's youth team.

    I'm trying to keep my expectations very low when it comes to transfers. AS has been presenting Mayoral like Van Basten in the past few weeks, so i'm hoping they won't present him to us like baby Simba in the summer acting like we don't need anybody, he's the one.

    According to most Bayern beat writers the Alaba transfer takes a while because it's not only the wages he's asking for, but also the fact that he wants a role in midfield and not in defense that's causing headaches for teams.

    It is something he has expressed himself previously isn’t it, that he prefers playing central midfield. Unlikely that’s what he’s going in with as a demand, however he’s always playing in midfield for Austria for example.

    He's been saying that he wants to play in midfield full time since he was a teenager. It's tricky though because his value is created by him being Alaba the defender, not Alaba the midfield player.

    I'm seeing these rumors that we might sell Varane to the BPL for upwards of 70mil and that would be an amazing move. We have Nacho who can easily start beside Ramos and we have Militao who we need to start using more. We could even try using Mendy at cb if needed without Varane. If we could sell him this would be one of the best moves made in recent years and we could buy an attacker for sure.

    Yeah, selling Varane would be an amazing move. I have no idea why don't we sell Kroos, Casemiro and Courtois, while we're doing amazing moves!

    Varane is no better than Nacho plus we have 50mil Militao sitting on the bench getting 0 playing time. If giving Varane a new contract is something that will prevent us signing more attackers then get rid of him, its pretty simple.

    If Varane is getting sold he should be going for a record defender fee.

    I know he's had his stretches where he's been underwhelming and also downright bad, but he's actually done really well in the absence of Ramos lately.

    The contract situation means we probably won't get a large enough fee to properly reinvest into the squad.

    You can't play Nacho and Militao instead of Varane. Even if you could, I'd probably go with Nacho only and player less.

    What can you get for 50M? Mbappe's leg? What are wr, Villarreal?
    So, how much should we ask for starting defender of serial CL winning team and WC winner who is only 28, possibly having a
    a decade of top football in front of him?

    How much do you expect PSG to ask for Mbappe compared to the biggest transfers of attackers up to today?
