Guardian also mentions 220k per week which is about right. Far from the 600k per week our rivals seem to think we're going to pay. At 220k a week the deal is risk free considering the revenue he will make us from merchandise and the feel-good factor he will bring to the club. This is without even considering the impact he will have in the dressing room and on the pitch.
Where are they getting 600k a week from? Their own imagination?
Anyway, I'd expected around 300k so if Guardian is right that's not bad at all.

Its likely thats what he was offered in China
 

Eric Bailly from Villarreal could be our first signing under Mourinho. Advanced talks, would be very close to signing.
 
Bailly would be a great signing, I have about 7-8 posts in the newbs jizzing myself silly over him. Can't believe no one has been linked to him earlier (Barca was linked a few days ago).

Great prospect, much better than Mustacchio that draws all the attention at Villareal.

apparently Pep wanted him at city.

Don't know much about him. What are his strengths/weaknesses and which player, past or present, is he similar to ?

It'd be annoying to have him feck off for the Cup Of Nations though, right in busy season for us.

I have watched him about 5-6 times for Villareal, including the first leg against Liverpool in the Europa league where he was the best player on the pitch IMO.

His major strengths are pace and physicality, he is literally a beast. One of he fastest CB's around with a physique to match.

I am also impressed by his ball playing skills which are way above average for a "stereotypical" big unit of a CB type of player which he is.

His weakness is like most young defensive prospects decision making and anticipation. I really dont know who to compare him to, but in "type" he would be nearer a Vida than a Rio.

Cool thanks. Let's see how this pans out.
 
Heard great things about him so hope it's true. The negative thing is to lose him for the Africa cup of nations.

He sounds a lot like Kurt Zouma

100% agree. Been watching Villareal all season and he is my absolute highlight on the defensive side of things. Pace, power, pretty smart on the ball. Lots of potential too!
