Proposal is for £100m + £5m in add-ons - would be a record for a British player as #AFC try to agree deal with #WHUFC for top target @TheAthleticFC

    Makes sense from a poker perspective but fuck City for making us ante up like this. We probably could have gotten away with 90+5 or something similar, but noooo, can’t have nice things.

      I honestly think they have been sticking to their guns ever since they won their trophy and bumped the ask from 90 to 100. We played our cards right and this should get it done. If not, we should tell them to fuck off

        We should actually express interest in Caicedo so as to appear to be pursuing other options. They might not believe it, but we have to do something, I’m so tired of being a transfer punching bag.
