Also Mendes is his agent so maybe he knows better than to do business with him.
Mendes and Mourinho don't seem very cuddly lately. Raiola has been closer to United. And Mendes is doing his business with City.
 
Agreed. The fundamental problem is people created a false construct that set an expectation that we were definitely in for x Monaco player when in reality we know feck all about who Jose is actually after.
False construct exacerbated by impatience, rivalry and a heavy dose of idiocy.
 
Can't see the City for Mbappe rumour being true personally. Just feels like a lazy link.
 
Pretty sure I read somewhere that we were interested in Ederson i.e. Lindelof and Ederson were sought after by Mourinho.
Don't pay much attention to United links to players at Portuguese clubs (especially those at Benfica). See: Gaitan, Garay.

City have been heavily linked with Ederson for about six months or so now.
 
Woah. De Gea must be worth at least double that then.

That was a Portuguese paper saying we paid 90m for them a few days ago. Most of the time they are rubbish. Lindelöf is still on the list apparently, at least thats what Sky are saying, with Keane and Van Dijk. City definitely got linked with Ederson more often and it seems he will end up there.
 
Looking at all the goalkeepers about. Is this guy really worth a world record fee?
Not yet, but maybe in the future. He is a good keeper and may become an excellent one. Its paying for potential. So City Upto 100 million euros before all leagues or the champions league is done. I reckon they go over 300 million this year. That will be about 500 milion for pep the manager who loves academies and tries to play young players.
 
If that fee is true, there is no way we would accept £60m for DDG if RM do want him
Think we will ask for players, now that morata is going to Milan, may be ask for Varane+ money or Kroos, maybe even Bale.
