Guarantee if we bought him, he’d have been just like Amad & Pellistri (played in youth team and loaned out) and we’d all complain how “incompetent” we are.
But City managed to sign Alvarez from the same team and bypass the £100m tax the Portuguese clubs add to the valuations of these players. But you're right, I guess fans will always be more excited about potentially signing the latest £100m man on the market than signing the same player for £10m before all the hype.
